The American Music Awards (AMAs) — which featured a politically charged acceptance speech from Taylor Swift — reportedly took a ratings nosedive.

The annual awards show, which aired Tuesday on ABC, dipped to a new record low in the Nielsen Media Research ratings, The Wrap reported.

The AMAs drew a 1.8 rating among viewers 18-49. Last year’s AMAs tied the 2016 broadcast for a previous record-low, with a 2.4 rating.

About 6.5 million viewers tuned in to the broadcast, compared with more than 9 million last year, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

A newly politically vocal Swift accepted the Artist of the Year award and encouraged viewers to head to the polls next month.

“This award and every single award given out tonight were voted on by the people, and you know what else is voted on by the people?" Swift exclaimed to the crowd, "It is the midterm elections on Nov. 6. Get out and vote. I love you guys."

Swift, 28, had famously remained mum throughout her career about her politics, before breaking her silence over the weekend with an Instagram post.

Several awards shows — some of which have become increasingly political — have seen their ratings tumble in recent years.
