Harry Styles‘ Album of the Year win at the 2023 Grammys sent shockwaves through the internet mostly among Queen Bee’s fans. While Styles basked in the glow of his victory, the air was thick with tension. As he accepted the award, a chorus of boos and cries of “Beyoncé” and “Beyoncé should’ve won” erupted from the audience, a stark contrast to the applause that greeted many other winners from the night.

The internet was ablaze with reactions to that particular moment from the night, and Taylor Swift’s response to Styles’ win caught everyone’s attention. As Harry Styles received the award and delivered his speech, Swift stood up and applauded him (as caught in the clip shared by Storyful on YouTube). The pop icon was also spotted talking and hugging Styles, seemingly congratulating him on his big win during the ceremony as per The Hollywood Reporter

While many see her actions as a gesture of support from an ex and friend, there’s also chatter that the moment might have evoked personal memories for Swift.

Some observers pointed out that the scene could have been a poignant reminder of the 2009 VMAs when Kanye West infamously interrupted her acceptance speech to declare that Beyoncé should have won.
