Taylor Swift left the 46th Annual Country Music Awards winless on Thursday night, going 0-for-3 in a bleak end to an otherwise phenomenal week for the young singer.
Swift was nominated for Entertainer of the Year, Female Vocalist of the Year and Musical Event of the Year, but lost those categories to Blake Shelton, Miranda Lambert and Kenny Chesney and Tim McGraw, respectively. All this despite the fact that her newly released album, "Red," sold over 1.2 million copies to top the Billboard charts.
The news is made somewhat less surprising by the fact that "Red" -- and much of Swift's recent work -- marks a departure from a country sound. Swift's new disc features pure pop tracks and even veer toward electronic dance music.
