NASHVILLE, Tenn. - Taylor Swift says she is "absolutely walking on a cloud."

She leads the American Music Award nominations with six, topping Michael Jackson, who has five, and Eminem, with four.

Swift says she's never been nominated six times for any award show before.

She considers it "such an honor," because as she puts it, she lives in Nashville and sings country music. Having audiences outside the genre accept her just makes her "days more sunny."

She was nominated for artist of the year, favorite female pop and country artist, favorite pop and country album for "Fearless," and favorite adult contemporary artist.

AMA winners are determined by online fan voting and will be announced during a ceremony in Los Angeles on Nov. 22, airing on ABC.
