Taylor Swift was "terrified" to meet Michelle Obama

Taylor Swift has revealed that she was "terrified" to meet Michelle Obama because she is "such a fan" of hers.

The 'You Belong With Me' songstress was awarded The Big Help trophy by the First Lady at the Kids' Choice Awards on Sunday night (April 1) and revealed to MTV News that she was nervous to meet such an inspirational and strong woman:

"To be awarded an award from the First Lady was one of the most exciting things, I was so honoured and I've always been such a huge fan of hers."

''I've been really terrified to meet her because I'm such a fan. I never went to the White House. I never like got a chance to meet her and so to get to meet her on a night like tonight, where she's giving me an award for something; it was just over-the-top amazing. I'm so thankful."

Along with winning a Kids' Choice prize, the talented singer-songwriter was also named Entertainer of the Year at the 2012 Academy of Country Music Awards over the weekend.
