Taylor Swift - English
Pop superstar Taylor Swift walked away without a single win at the 2025 American Music Awards, much to the disbelief of her devoted fanbase. Despite being nominated in six major categories – including Artist of the Year and Album of the Year – Swift didn’t score a single trophy at Monday night’s ceremony held at the Fontainebleau Las Vegas.
The singer, who did not attend the event, was also up for Favorite Female Pop Artist, Favorite Touring Artist, Favorite Pop Album for The Tortured Poets Department, and Collaboration of the Year for “Fortnight” featuring Post Malone.
The night proved to be a huge sweep for Billie Eilish, who claimed most of Swift’s hoped-for awards. Eilish won Artist of the Year, Favorite Female Pop Artist, Favorite Touring Artist, Album of the Year, and Favorite Pop Album. Meanwhile, Collaboration of the Year was awarded to Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars for their song “Die With A Smile.”
Despite heavy fan support and Easter eggs, Swift came up short

The results were unexpected, especially considering Swift‘s unmatched legacy at the AMAs. Heading into the 2025 show, she held the title of the most-awarded artist in AMAs history, with an impressive 40 wins.
Swift last attended the show in November 2022, a night that saw her collect six trophies. (The AMAs were not held in either 2023 or 2024, making this year’s ceremony especially anticipated.)
In true Swiftie fashion, fans flooded social media in the days and weeks leading up to the event, encouraging others to vote and dissecting potential hints that the star had something big planned.
One theory centered on her official website, where a menu displaying “Apparel, Music, Accessories, Sale” prompted speculation after fans noticed that the first letters spelled “AMAS.” Others were drawn to the fact that 12 items were listed at a 26 percent discount-interpreting it as a clue referencing Swift’s upcoming 12th album and the May 26 award show date.
Taylor Nation also stirred buzz with a cryptic May 6 post on X, writing: “And our town, it looks so sMall from wAy up here. Screamed, ‘vote for the chairman’ at the night sky!” Eagle-eyed fans noted that the capitalized letters again spelled out “AMAS.”

KOMENTÁŘ: Odebrání akreditace? Cesta síly, nikoli práva
Úterní společné prohlášení tří klubů má znemožnit pracovní podmínky žurnalistů, kteří se znelíbili, ale lze z něj mezi řádky vyčíst i daleko vyšší hru o vliv v českém fotbale, do níž všechny strany vtahují média. Původní spor šéfa Slavie Jaroslava Tvrdíka s vydavatelstvím, které vlastní jeho nesmiřitelný fotbalový rival, získává zapojením dalších dvou renomovaných tuzemských fotbalových značek nebezpečný přesah.Považuji za nutné připomenout, co se na našem webu objevilo v glose už minulý týden.

Český volejbal jde nahoru, říká kouč úspěšných mladíků. Prozradil, co je třeba ještě zlepšit
Češi v Ťiang-menu neznali do semifinále nic než vítězství. Pak ale narazili na absolutní světovou elitu. Do souboje o zlato nepustili národní tým Italové a v bitvě o bronzovou placku uspěli pro změnu Američané. V historii samostatné republiky je z toho ale nejlepší výsledek volejbalistů. Jediného cenného kovu (bronzu) dosáhli hráči pod vysokou sítí v roce 1993 ještě jako výběr Československa.Trenére, čeho si na týmu ceníte nejvíc?Chemie a soudržnosti. Charakter týmu byl fantastický, což bylo snazší pro nás trenéry, protože jsme neměli tolik práce, abychom hráče motivovali. Kluci si za tím šli sami, což se v utkáních projevilo. Bojovali o každý míč a byla radost se na ně koukat. Teď už je jen na nich, aby tu zkušenost přetavili dál. Aby nezpychli, že postoupili takhle daleko.Před semifinále jste říkal, že se čeští hráči posunuli ve volejbalovém umu. Jak se podle vás výchova mladých talentů změnila?Daří se nám kontinuita práce, za což jsem […]
