Taylor Swift probably thought this would never ever happen again, but last night the singer was, once again, interrupted while giving her acceptance speech after winning 'Favorite Country Singer' at the People's Choice Awards. This time it was actress Olivia Munn who grabbed the award from the singer's hand as soon as she received it.

"This always happens," the singer said.

"And it will always happen, Taylor. This is your lot in life," Munn responded.

"I know," Swift lamented.

The singer was getting ready to carry on with her speech award-less when Munn gave it back to her saying, "I'm not gonna be this person," referring of course to Kanye West, the precursor of the Taylor-Swift-interrupting-cult.

Munn's interruption was supposed to be a joke inspired by the time Kanye West took the microphone away from Swift during her acceptance speech at the 2009 VMA's, however, not many people found it amusing. Many comment's on social media have called Munn's mischief rude and unfunny.

Putting the incident aside, last night was a big one for Swift. Besides winning the award, the star's revealing dress was all everyone could talk about, in a positive way. People magazine even called her new look, a 'Sexy Breakover.'
