The Grammys are done and over. It was an exciting night for many, especially Taylor Swift. Not only did she get probably the most camera shots of her in the audience, but she also won Album of the Year for Midnights.
So, congrats to Swift! Everyone is happy, right?
Well, not everyone is on board with Travis Kelce's girlfriend taking home this top prize. Reactions are mixed. And yes, she has a ton of support for the win. Also, she has a lot of haters out there who are not too thrilled with what took place.
Plus, several weren't happy with her not acknowledging legendary singer Celine Dion as she handed her the award. Ugh. You can't please everyone.
Social media reactions to Taylor Swift winning Album of the Year
Since everyone has a megaphone, we took to X and found some interesting reactions.
One user didn't seem upset over the win, but the Dion snub was too much to handle. “Taylor Swift just took the album of the year trophy from Celine Dion without batting an eye and/or acknowledging that a legendary (goat emoji) was heading her the award. So cringey for my soul.”

Jay Z was outspoken about the win, too. Except, instead of on social media, he mentioned it on stage. One X user said, “Jay Z calling out the recording academy for never giving Beyoncé the Album of the Year award.”

Another user, spicebae, said, “We just need to go ahead and applaud Jay Z for saying what everyone's been thinking about the nominations and Beyoncé never winning album of the year.”

Then, others joked about how it's “rigged.” Brian said, “Let me guess…'The Grammys are rigged too in an effort to help Joe Biden win in 2024′? Congrats on Album of the Year. Ignore the Haters.”

Congrats on ‘Album of the Year’. Ignore the Haters.

All the various responses are pretty normal at any awards show. We're pretty sure Taylor Swift will move past any haters fairly quickly and get on to more important things like attending the Super Bowl on Sunday.
