Fans React To Taylor Swift's 2020 ACM Awards Performance
Taylor Swift brought the house down with a live performance of "Betty" from her new album, Folklore, at the 2020 Academy of Country Music Awards. The last time the singer made an appearance at the awards show was way back in 2015. As the official account for the ACM Awards tweeted: "We'll have you, and we want you, @taylorswift13! It is so great to have Taylor back on the #ACMawards stage." Here, here!
Given the current state of world affairs this year, Swift decided to forego her usual glam squad, opting for a more low-maintenance look, as reported by People. Swift chose to sweep her curly locks back into a low bun, but make no mistake — while she may have done her hair and makeup herself, she still killed it in the wardrobe game. The singer-songwriter dazzled viewers in a burgundy and sequined turtleneck paired with tan trousers and black heels.
But what did Swift's devoted fans, also known as Swifties, have to say about her ACM Awards comeback? Keep reading to find out!
Taylor Swift's ACM Awards performance was 'worth the wait'
The general consensus is that Taylor Swift's Academy of Country Music awards performance of "Betty" was "worth the wait," per Entertainment Tonight.
The official ACM Awards account took its cues from Swift's "Betty" lyrics when it tweeted: "SHE SHOWED UP AT THE PARTY," accompanied by many clapping hand emojis. Swift performed at the renowned Grand Ole Opry House in Nashville, and the official twitter account of the Opry declared that it had been dreaming of her live "Betty" performance all summer long. Fans were also raving about Swift's performance on social media. One user tweeted they were "speechless," while another said they are "never getting over" Swift's performance — kind of like the time Taylor sang that she and an old flame were, never, ever getting back together. (We got it.)
Welcome home, Taylor. Oh, how we've missed you!
