Did anyone else cringe when they kept playing “Yummy” during Justin’s nominations? And the worst parts of the video. I knew they had to do it for Pip Solo, but they could’ve spared me the second hand embarrassment when they played it AGAIN for Pop Vocal Album. I don’t like “Intentions” either, but it’s less cringe, lol.

Beyonce probably doesn't care that much (anymore). Her stans on the other hand still try to make it seem like the Grammys hate her (even tho she just won her record 28th award). Yeah, I understand the outrage for the Lemonade snub, but Beyonce's fans acting like the Grammy's aren't up her ass I never will. The woman sweeps noms even on an off year....

It's wild they still give Beyonce so many awards. Even Alicia Keys fell out of favor at some point. Difference is Alicia stopped playing the games. Beyoncé seeks out for these awards. Hell, she doesn’t even show up to the black awards anymore. sure jan. y'all stay projecting your ignorance out there. If you go look at what others do vs Beyonce does, she barely campaign and promote for Grammy. you don't see her doing at all. but she seeks out? lol Also she was at NACCP 2019.and BET 2020(virtual ceremony). duh.

Harry Styles is looking sexy af...lord 🤤🥵 He looked SO good! I will say I wish they had given him a "real" stage. A true show opener moment. I have seen him live multiple times and that man owns a stage and a medley of his songs would have given him a great opportunity to really show that. I'll take what we were given though. And now - cannot wait for tour! Where are we celebrating?! You know I screamed when she said “Water...” lol.

Taylor won with 3 different genres of music. That’s a pretty dope achievement.

I am happy for Taylor. I have had a love/hate relationship with her but no one can deny her tremendous talent. She deserved that one. Hoping Dua will get ROTY.

Can someone explain how Taylor got more votes than Dua to win AOTY but the reverse for Best Pop Album? I kinda...don't buy it? Has that ever happened before? I've already mentioned Arcade Fire lost its genre album award but won AOTY. AOTY is the entire voting body deciding. Pop Album is a more select group voting. It makes total sense, actually. Taylor had more broad support than the other nominees.

Is that a record for a female? Winning 3 Album of the Year? For artists, I am sure Stevie Wonder and Frank Sinatra have won 3 times, too. Paul Simon won 2 as a solo artist and 1 as part of Simon & Garfunkel. First time for a female is right.

Yay! I absolutely love and am awed by folklore. It’s an amazing piece of work and timeless. So happy it was recognized.
Boy did they spread the wins out. I hope it’s a sign of things to come. The recent sweeps across the board have IMO been undeserved.

Ain’t sure nothing. She submitted her work in everything as she always does. Where was she at those awards? I watched BET 2020 and don’t remember seeing her at all.

Taylor won with 3 different genres of music. That’s a pretty dope achievement. Country, Pop and what is Folklore classified as? I don’t want to make assumptions based on the title, although it could be obvious. I keep seeing it labeled as Alternative and Indie Pop. Educate me, lol.

Indie pop is accurate, but there are influences of country, alternative and pure pop through the record too.

Beyoncé could take ROTY. She got two there. Savage would be a dope winner.

It does feel different than AF since they didnt lose Alternative Album to an AOTY nominee.

When you consider that folklore easily has elements of other genres, not to mention Taylor’s roots in country, it makes a ton of sense that she gets more support in the general field where other genre musicians have a vote.

Idk (blame Janet Jackson) but it feels weird seeing singers holding a microphone in one hand and dancing with the other

I'm pretty happy with the wins tonight. I'm glad Taylor won AOTY but didn't sweep. Her best case scenario was AOTY and BPVA. Dua got love. Meg got love. Beyonce got love. Gaga/Grande got love.
