To the surprise of very few, Taylor Swift took home Album of the Year at the 2024 Grammy Awards.Swift's "Midnights" was the big winner of the evening. The album, which was released Oct. 21, 2022, included such hits as "Anti-Hero" and "Karma," becoming an instant favorite as fans worked to decode the cryptic lyrics about her racing thoughts and sleeple s nights.Naturally, Swift was over the moon after her album earned the night's biggest honor. She expre sed gratitude toward producer Jack Antonoff and Lana Del Ray, who had collaborated on "Midnights," and detailed just how much joy she gets from being able to work in the music industry.Given the limited time that Swift had in making her speech it lasted just under two minutes she limited her thank yous to her profe sional connections. As a result, there was no mention of her boyfriend, Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, a fact of which many keen NFL fans and Swifties alike noticed.That omi sion wasn't a surprise considering that Swift focused entirely on thanking her collaborators and Adam Boqvist Jersey fans in her speech. It hardly even registered as a minor story on a night whenSwift made history with her Album of the Year win and announced that she would soon be releasing new music.MORE: Here's everything to know about Swift's night at the Grammys as she prepares for her Tokyo tour and gets ready to attend Super Bowl 58.Per usual, Album of the Year was the final award announced to end the Grammys. Celine Dion made a surprise appearance as the award's presenter, and she bestowed the honor to Swift.Because the program was ending, Swift had limited time in which to make her speech. As such, she focused on praising her album collaborators and her fans in her earnest addre s.Among the highlights from Swift's speech was her praise of Jack Antonoff. She referred to himas"one of my best friends but also a once-in-a-generation producer."She followed that up by heaping praise on Lana Del Ray, whom Swift credited with empowering female artists."I think so many female artists would not be where they are and would not have the inspiration they have if it weren't for the work that she's done," Swift said. "I think she's a legacy artist, a legend in her prime right now. I'm so lucky to know Alex DeBrincat Jersey you and to be your friend."Last but not least, Swift's closing remarks were the most touching moment of the evening, as she expre sed the true joy that she gets from creating music and performing.I'd love to tell you that this is the best moment of my life, but I feel this happy when I finish a song; or when I crack the code to a bridge that I love; or when I'm shot listing a music video; or when I'm rehearsing with my dancers or my band or getting ready to go to Tokyo to play a show.For me the award is the work. All I want to do is keep being able to do this. I love it so much. It makes me so happy. It makes me unbelievably blown away that it makes some people happy who voted for this award too. All I want to do is keep doing this. So thank you so much for giving me the opportunity to do what I love so much.And for those who would like to see the speech in full, it can be seen below, via The Hollywood Reporter.Taylor Swift wins Album of the Year for the 4th time at the 2024 The Hollywood Reporter (@THR) MORE:Travis Kelce was not in attendance for Swift's win at the 2024 Grammys. The Chiefs tight end announced on "The Pat McAfee Show" that he wouldn't be able to attend because of his pre-Super Bowl schedule.I know I got practice on Saturday but Sunday is a travel day, Kelce explained. Unfortunately, I got to get ready for this big old Super Bowl."That likely is a big part of why Kelce didn't get a shoutout from Swift in her Grammys speech. He wasn't there, didn't help on her award-winning album and she was pre sed for time at the end of the evening.So, Kelce's omi sion wasn't a snub in the slightest.Nor was Kelce's non-attendance at the Grammys indicative of any problems between the two.Perhaps if the Chiefs hadn't been in the Super Bowl, Kelce would have been a part of Swift's entourage on Sunday.MORE: Swift won two Grammys at the 2024 edition of the awards show.
