I cannot believe that it was a year ago at the VMAs that I announced the 'Midnights' album. All I have to say tonight is thank you."
The pop star earned her 15th Moon Person trophy after winning the best pop award early in the broadcast. NSYNC presented the award making Swift visibly excited as she accepted.
"I had your dolls," Swift told the former members of the five-man group. "You’re pop personified."

Marking her 16th win, she thanked longtime producer and close friend Jack Antonoff for their first collaboration together "1989." Swift is set to release the rerecorded version of the album on Oct. 27, exactly nine years since the original reached fans.
