“My roots have been growing underneath ground, unseen, for so long, and I feel like today, I’m sprouting, finally above ground,” she expressed joyfully after receiving the coveted gilded gramophone.
For the occasion, the On My Mama singer was impeccably dressed in a structured copper mermaid gown designed by Versace, which she beautifully complemented with a silver Bulgari Serpenti necklace.
Aside from outdoing Stevie Wonder, Paul Simon, and Frank Sinatra to become the artist with the most Album of the Year wins in Grammy history, this 66th Grammy Awards ceremony was particularly unforgettable for Swift as she unveiled her upcoming album, "The Tortured Poets Department", set to release on April 19.
Swift gracefully handled host Trevor Noah's humorous remarks about her NFL coverage and looked absolutely stunning in a white Schiaparelli Haute Couture gown featuring a peek-a-boo leg slit, paired with elegant black opera gloves.
Naturally, she chose her signature red lipstick to bring a dash of color to her ensemble.

She completed her look with gold Tabi heels and chose to let her stunning dress be the centerpiece by opting not to wear any accessories.
For her hairstyle, Cyrus went for a dramatic, sky-high look, reminiscent of her godmother Dolly Parton's iconic style.
The four-time Grammy winner and renowned actor hinted at his 12th studio album, "Blue Electric Light", during a conversation with Laverne Cox on the E! Live from the Red Carpet pre-show.

At 59 years old, Kravitz participated in the moving In Memoriam segment of the ceremony, paying tribute to the music industry's late talents alongside Stevie Wonder, Jon Batiste, and other notable stars.
