Taylor Swift, who received eight nominations at the American Music Awards, including Artist of the Year and Album of the Year for her album *The Life of a Showgirl*, did not attend the ceremony at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas. Instead, she was in New York City with her fiancé, NFL star Travis Kelce, as they prepare for their upcoming wedding. The couple has been spotted enjoying various outings together, including a recent basketball game where they showcased their affection. Swift's absence from the AMAs has been confirmed, as she focuses on her personal life amid her busy career. Her nominations also include categories for her songs “Fate of Ophelia” and “Elizabeth Taylor,” highlighting her continued success in the music industry.
