By KAILEY HARLESS

Big winner: Taylor Swift took home eight 2013 Billboard Music Awards on Sunday night and took to the stage in a sparkly unicorn T-shirt

Fans and non-fans can speculate as much as they want about Taylor Swift and her personal life.
But one thing is undeniable: the 23-year-old's ability to produce number-one hits with which people fall in love.
The songstress snagged not one but eight statues at the 2013 Billboard Music Awards stage in Las Vegas on Sunday night.

Letting loose: The 23-year-old got down on stage after knowing she'd won eight awards for the evening

They included Top Female Artist and Top Billboard 200 Artist.
Additionally, she won Top Digital Songs Artist, Top Country Artist, Top Country Song for We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together, and Top Country Album for Red.

Haters gonna hate! The pop and country sensation didn't let rumuors get in the way of her path to Billboard success

During one of her acceptance speeches, a light-hearted Taylor appeared to be making fun of herself, referring to her many much documented and troubled relationships as she thanked her fans.
'You are the longest and best relationship I have ever had!' she exclaimed before strutting off stage.
Earlier Taylor also gave an energetic performance at the annual ceremony.

Dip, baby, dip: T. Swift threw back her head and enjoyed the moment onstage as she danced with a blond boy

Bouncing around in a blue T-shirt with a sparkly unicorn and the rainbow thought cloud: 'haters gonna hate', T.Swift proved that her talent speaks for itself.
With her angelic blonde locks tied into an innocent ponytail, Taylor sang 22 and pranced about in high-waist shorts that showed off her long, slender legs.
The singer had the right to let loose after sweeping the competition at the awards ceremony.

No longer 22: As the singer performed her hit song 22, she seemed to be fully confident as she pumped her fist and donned a sparkly unicorn T-shirt

Giving it her all: Taylor passionately performed her song about her influential 22nd year
