[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think Céline tried to steal the thunder of whoever was going to win that award. She tried to make someone else’s moment hers and I’m glad it backfired. If she wanted to make an appearance and gain relevance again or whatever she was trying to do don’t do at the final and most important award. She’s the jerk here. [/quote]

Please. Miley Cyrus managed to be gracious to Mariah Carey AND shine. In fact, being gracious is always a win for the gracious person. Taylor Swift is so self-centered she could not even fake it until her PR told her to backstage, and she managed to look rude then too with the weird pose.[/quote]

It should never be about the person handing out the award to begin with. There should be no need for someone winning an award to be "gracious" to the other famous person handing it to them who had nothing to do with it beyond wanting to promote themselves, too. It's so ridiculous I can't believe this is even a discussion. [/quote]

Famous people usually hand out awards (same at Academy Awards). TS didn't even LOOK at Celine Dion. There is no way around her rudeness. [/quote]

Go watch the Oscars or any movie/tv awards and you’ll see that the winner rarely acknowledges the stars—oftentimes A listers or icons. They grab the award from the person and launch into their speech.

People just hate Taylor and look for reasons to criticize. [/quote]

This is simply not true. It is STANDARD for the person receiving the award to take a moment to hug or thank the presenter before giving their speech. Like you can go look at a bunch of these awards but it's very typical.

And when the presenter is someone super high profile, like legend status, it is very typical for recipients to say something about the presenter as they begin their speech. Like when Oppenheimer won for Best Picture-Drama at the Golden Globes, Oprah was the presenter and the producer who accepted the award (Emma Thomas) made a point of speaking to her as she took it and then also acknowledge Oprah as she began her speech. This is what most people do.

When Harry Styles won this same award last year, Trevor Noah is technically the presenter but they did a thing where they brought "super fans" up on stage to announce the winner. Watch Harry give this woman the biggest possible hug before going to give a speech where he also acknowledge his fellow nominees (also a very normal thing that people frequently do). He was calm and gracious, even though this was his very first time winning that award and only his 3rd Grammy ever. And like Taylor, he'd won earlier in the evening for best Pop/Vocal album.

I have never seen an award recipient who is mid career and has won these awards in the past (Taylor has been going to the Grammys for TWENTY YEARS) behave the way Taylor did. I can't think of a time when I've watched a winner, but especially one as prominent as Taylor who his a repeat winner (and even won an award earlier that evening), grab an award from someone's hands while distractedly screaming at other people on the stage, the way Taylor did. But especially not from someone as prominent as Celine Dion. Her behavior was strange to me. I'm not even going to say it was rude -- I think it was weird and perhaps reflects either being drunk/high AF in that moment, or simply being a very immature person, or both.

It reflects poorly on her character, period.[/quote]
