Taylor Swift grins after winning an armful of awards at the 2016 Grammys held at the Staples Center on Monday (February 15) in Los Angeles.
The 26-year-old singer received a sweet congratulations from her 32-year-old boyfriend Calvin Harris the next day.
Calvin posted a photo on Instagram of Taylor accepting her Album of the Year award, captioned, “Congratulations to my beautiful girlfriend.”
While Calvin, 32, did not attend the Grammys because he was busy in the studio, he accompanied Taylor, 26, to an after-party to celebrate.
Taylor attended the awards ceremony with her best pal Selena Gomez and used her acceptance speech for Album of the Year to hit out at Kanye West after he claimed in his new song ‘Famous’ that he made the ‘Into the Woods’ singer a star.
While picking up the gong for ‘Album of the Year’, Taylor noted that she is the only woman to have ever won the award twice and urged young women to ‘focus on work’ and ignore people who try to ‘or take credit for your accomplishments or your fame’.
She said: ”As the first woman to win Album of the Year at the Grammys twice, I want to say to all the young women out there, there are going to be people along the way who will try to undercut your success or take credit for your accomplishments or your fame.
”But if you just focus on the work and you don’t let those people sidetrack you, someday, when you get where you are going, you will look around and you will know that it was you and the people who love you who put you there. And that will be the greatest feeling in the world. Thank you for this moment.”
