That year, she performed "Highway Don’t Care" with Tim McGraw and Keith Urban at the ACM Awards and "Red" at the CMAs with Vince Gill and Alison Krauss.
The next year, Swift released the album "1989," widely considered to be her turn from country to pop music.

"Betty," which has been compared to the singer's earlier music, has received airplay on country radio, with the line "would you tell me to go f—k myself" being replaced with "would you tell me to go straight to hell."
While she hasn't performed on such a show since 2013, Swift has appeared as a presenter and even a winner at various country music ceremonies including landing the milestone award at the 2015 ACM Awards.
