Taylor Swift: CMT Artist of the Year!

Taylor Swift is red hot at the 2011 CMT Artists of the Year show on Tuesday (November 29) at Bridgestone Arena in Nashville, Tenn.

The 21-year-old country star met up with the night’s host, Rob Lowe, on the carpet before heading inside where she was honored along with Jason Aldean, Kenny Chesney, Lady Antebellum, and Brad Paisley.

“Getting ready to head to the CMT Artist of the Year taping- blasting ‘Keep You With Me’ by @hotchellerae. This song = pop melodic goodness,” Taylor tweeted.

FYI: Taylor is wearing a Porcelain dress with Lorraine Schwartz jewelry and Christian Louboutin heels.
