Taylor's Up for More Awards - and Then Some

2/17 - Taylor lost out to Lady GaGa.

Taylor Swift is up for the UK's Grammy equivalent - a BRIT Award tonight. She's up for International Breatkthrough Act, going up against Lady GaGa and Animal Collective (all U.S. Acts). Empire of the Sun and Daniel Merriweather - both from Australia - are also up.

Taylor has performed several concerts in London and was part of BBC's Children in Need fundraiser last fall, and she's donated about $21,500 to that cause.


Taylor is also up for a 2010 Nickelodeon Kids Choice Award on March 27th. She's up for Favorite Female Singer and Favorite Song for "You Belong with Me."

Miley Cyrus is up for four Kid's Choice Awards - Favorite TV Actress, Female Singer, Movie Actress and Favorite song for "Party in the USA."


Kids can vote for their favorites starting February 25th at Nick.com/Kids-Choice-Awards.

Kevin James will host the show.


And finally, Taylor has one of iTunes' most downloaded songs ever. "Love Story" takes eighth place, and is the only country track on the recently released list.
