Taylor Swift was the indisputable queen of the 2011 Teen Choice Awards tonight, earning the Ultimate Choice honor and taking home five other awards during the ceremony.

Following an introduction by actress Emma Stone and a touching video tribute, Swift, clutching the hand of her BFF Selena Gomez, got up to receive the Ultimate Choice award.

"I'm so happy," remarked Swift during her speech. "This is the first time that I've ever been to the Teen Choice Awards and this is amazing. I want to thank the fans. You've guys have made my life so beautiful and it's all because of you."

She quipped, "It's been a long time since I was a teenager -- like two years -- so it's been a while," before adding, "When I was a teenager I felt like we were always being stereotyped as being very intense and dramatic and passionate and hopelessly romantic. Now, in retrospect, I need to let you know that I think all of those things are amazing things."

Swift also won awards for Choice Music Female Artist; Choice Music Female Country Artist; Choice Red Carpet Fashion Icon; Choice Music Country Single ('Mean'); and Choice Music Break-up Song ('Back to December').
