Winning isn’t everything.
Taylor Swift walked away from the 2025 Grammys empty-handed, losing in all six categories in which she was nominated.
The “Down Bad” singer, 35, didn’t appear bothered by the losses, however, instead celebrating the various winners and performers while in the audience at Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles.
She also presented Beyoncé — who finally won album of the year after losing four times — with the trophy for best country album.
Had Swift won the coveted album of the year award for 2024’s “The Tortured Poets Department,” it would’ve been her fifth win in the category — having earned the title in 2010 for “Fearless,” 2016 for “1989,” 2021 for “Folklore” and 2024 for “Midnights.”
She would have been the first musical artist to ever win the category five times.

Engineer Serban Ghenea, who already won the album of the year award for Swift’s “1989” and “Midnights,” as well as Adele’s “25,” Bruno Mars’ “24K Magic” and Shakira’s “Fijación Oral, Vol. 1,” is the only person to win album of the year five times.
The nomination alone saw Swift set the record as the first-ever artist to be up for the Grammys’ album of the year award seven times.
The other artists nominated this year were André 3000 for “New Blue Sun,” Beyoncé for “Cowboy Carter,” Sabrina Carpenter for “Short n’ Sweet,” Charli XCX for “Brat,” Jacob Collier for “Djesse Vol. 4,” Billie Eilish for “Hit Me Hard and Soft” and Chappell Roan for “The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess.”
The billionaire, who had already earned 14 Grammys prior to Sunday night, received a total of six nominations for this year’s ceremony, with her “TTPD” album also being up in the best pop vocal album category.
Her song “Fortnight” was nominated for song of the year, record of the year and best music video. She and Gracie Abrams were also nominated for best pop duo/group performance for collaborating on their song, “Us.”
Swift was announced as presenter for the evening last week.
She was not joined by her boyfriend, Travis Kelce, for the historic moment, as the Kansas City Chiefs tight end was busy practicing for his upcoming Super Bowl championship game next week.
Swift previously shared how honored she was to have received so much recognition for “The Tortured Poets Department” after the 2025 Grammy nominations were announced.
“You guys did something so amazing over the course of the last few months. I just mean what you did with embracing ‘The Tortured Poets Department,’ the album,” she told the audience at her Eras Tour show in Toronto last November.
“It’s truly blown my mind because it’s really emotional for me that this album, I wrote it during the Eras Tour,” she added.
