At the 2024 Grammys, a show full of surprises and safe bets
From blockbuster concert events like Beyoncé's RENAISSANCE and Taylor Swift's Eras tour, to the massive hit in Greta Gerwig's Barbie, 2023 was "the year of the girl." That streak continued at the 66th annual Grammy Awards, with young women artists who made their mark on the pop charts this past year winning in all of the major categories.
Taylor Swift took home both album of the year and the award for best pop vocal album for Midnights, bringing her lifetime tally of Grammy wins to 14. She also broke the record for the most career wins in the album of the year category — it was her fourth time winning the award. "I would love to tell you that this is the best moment of my life but I feel this happy when I finish a song or crack the code to a bridge..." she said, accepting the last award of the night. "For me, the award is the work. All I want to do is keep being able to do this."
Earlier in the night, while accepting the award for best pop vocal album, Swift also let the audience and, dropping April 19.
