However, despite her big night, Swift faced some backlash after the ceremony for what appeared to be an awkward exchange between her and pop icon Dion, who made a rare appearance due to her battle with Stiff Person Syndrome (SPS).
Dion presented Swift with Album of the Year, and Swift, overcome with excitement, accepted a gramophone from the “My Heart Will Go On” songwriter but didn’t acknowledge him or make eye contact, instead sharing her joy with the collaborator. .
The interaction led to speculation on social media, with one user expressing frustration, writing: “My biggest disappointment at the Grammys was that Taylor Swift won Best Album and hugged everyone but took the trophy from Celine Dion as if she was a hat check girl, and as if -not realizing how amazing Celine was standing there at all.”

Another added: “Taylor Swift acting like Celine Dion isn’t there or like she doesn’t understand the magnitude of Celine Dion being there to present the award at a time like this is why I can’t be with her as a person. #GRAMMYs”
However, Swift later celebrated her win by hugging Dion backstage, dispelling any rumors of an underdog.
The two stars posed together, showing their happiness together. In the photo, Swift’s arm wrapped around Dion’s shoulder, capturing a moment of genuine joy between the “I’m Alive” singer and the “Lavender Haze” artist.
