Taylor Swift se cruzó brevemente con su ex novio -Calvin Harris-, en los Grammys este fin de semana, y mientras que él puede haberla visto, ella definitivamente no lo notó.

Los aficionados se apresuraron a notar que las dos estrellas de la música estuvieron brevemente a pocos metros el uno del otro el domingo dentro del Crypto.com Arena, en concreto, cuando Taylor estaba haciendo su gran entrada y consiguiendo una ronda de aplausos de todo el mundo.

Hay videos y fotos de este momento que han estado circulando y se puede ver Tay Tay caminando justo al lado de Calvin, quien estaba sentado en una mesa de espaldas a ella.

En un clip se puede ver que Calvin vio a Taylor, pero giró la cabeza para evitar el contacto visual. Esto llevó a los fans a lanzar teorías de que Taylor lo vio también y que, tal vez, había un poco de incomodidad entre ellos, ya que ambos estaban en el edificio.

Por desgracia para los chismosos, no hay nada más de que hablar. Los testigos que estaban allí nos dicen que Taylor y Calvin no hablaron ni tuvieron ningún tipo de encuentro que les obligaría a charlar y mucho menos reconocer la presencia del otro.

Nos dicen que Taylor y Calvin ni siquiera estuvieron en el mismo espacio durante el show. Fuera de este momento fugaz, cuando ella pasó junto a él, testigos presenciales insisten en que estaba preocupado con su bella esposa -Vick Hope- y no le estaba prestando atención a Taylor.

Por suerte para él, ese sentimiento se aplica a Taylor también. Fuentes con conocimiento directo nos dicen que ella ni siquiera registro que estaba en la asistencia, por lo que bien podría no haber estado allí en lo absoluto.

Taylor y Calvin salieron por un minuto en 2015 y 2016. Estuvieron juntos por un poco más de un año.

Teniendo en cuenta que Taylor siempre tiene algo que decir de sus exes, ver la conexión entre Joe Alwyn y su nuevo álbum tiene sentido, por qué algunos asumirían que hay mala sangre aquí.

Jay-Z says the Recording Academy is at fault for Beyoncé never winning the top prize at the Grammys ... but Bey's pops says her own record label is also contributing to the snub.

Mathew Knowles joined us on "TMZ Live" Monday, and we asked him about Jay's spicy speech at the Grammys, and what's holding Beyoncé back from winning Album of the Year.

While HOV pointed the finger at the voters, Mathew claims Beyonce's record label, Columbia Records, isn't doing its part behind the scenes ... suggesting it's not going to bat for her when it comes to the voting process or the lobbying involved for award shows.

As Mathew explains, record labels can only support one artist per category, which becomes an issue when artists from the same label are nominated for the same award ... as has been the case with Beyoncé at least twice.

Mathew says this exact scenario played out back in 2017 ... when Beyoncé and Adele, who is also signed to Columbia, were both nominated for AOTY. Bey's dad claims Columbia Records threw its support behind Adele, and she ended up trumping Bey for the Grammy.

Harry Styles is also on Columbia, BTW ... and last year, he beat out Beyoncé for AOTY.

Mathew says there are all sorts of reasons a record label would support one artist over another -- he broke down a few for us, while also pointing out it's not always about the music itself.

Jay-Z admitted in his speech this whole process is subjective, and Mathew's not denying that ... but he says money is a big motivator here too.

Beyoncé may very well win AOTY somewhere down the line ... but at the moment, her father seems to be implying the powers that be just aren't in her corner for the top prize.

Of course, Jay's solution was to "keep showing up," to the point where she can no longer be denied ... but Mathew's saying Beyonce's label has to show up for her.

Steve Harwell and C-Knight's omissions from the Grammys' "In Memoriam" segment Sunday was rude and disrespectful ... according to their nearest and dearest.

Robert Hayes, a rep for Smash Mouth's late lead singer, is hurt over the snub ... though he tells TMZ it didn't surprise him because the Recording Academy never acknowledged Steve when he was alive ... so why would they honor him when he passed?

Smash Mouth was nominated for a Grammy once, in 2000, but didn't win.

His remarks were cutting ... asking who even bothered to watch the Grammys anymore -- and expressing his belief the award ceremony hadn't been good in more than 20 years.

Steve left a lasting influence in the music industry before he passed away in Sept 2023 ... and only 2 months later, fellow artist C-Knight also died, having been taken off life support following complications from diabetes.

C-Knight's brother George Lee Blount echoed similar feelings of hurt and outrage over the "In Memoriam" exclusion.

George tells TMZ ... while C-Knight and his band The Dove Shack never scooped a Grammy, their impact on G-funk and hip hop is undeniable -- adding he was a hip hop legend, and the least they could've done was give him a mention.

George is hoping the same mistake doesn't happen again, urging the Grammys to do more research into artists to understand the hard work and sacrifice they put into their music careers.

Taylor Swift briefly crossed paths with her ex-boyfriend, Calvin Harris, at the Grammys this weekend -- and while he may have seen her ... she didn't notice him.

Fans were quick to notice the two music stars briefly coming within feet of one another Sunday inside of Crypto.com Arena -- specifically, when Taylor was making her big entrance and getting a round of applause from everyone.

There's video and photos of this moment that have been circulating ... and you can see Tay Tay walking right past CH -- who was sitting at a table with his back turned to her.

In a clip of this, it appears Calvin saw Taylor but turned his head to avoid eye contact -- and this led fans to run wild with theories that Taylor saw him too ... and that there, perhaps, was a little awkwardness between them since they were both in the building and mingling.

Unfortunately for the gossip crowd, there's nothing to speculate on. Eyewitnesses who were there tell us Taylor and Calvin didn't talk -- nor did they have any kind of specific run-in that would require them to chat ... let alone acknowledge one another's presence.

We're told T-Swift and Calvin weren't even in the same space during the show -- outside of this one fleeting moment when she happened to pass by him -- and eyewitnesses insist ... he was preoccupied with his beautiful wife, Vick Hope, and was paying no mind to Taylor.

Lucky for him ... that feeling applies to Taylor too. Sources with direct knowledge tell us she didn't even register he was in attendance -- so he might as well have not been there at all.

Taylor and Calvin dated for a hot minute in 2015 and 2016 -- they were together for a little over a year ... and then their romance flamed out before they each moved on to the next.

Considering Taylor still seems to have it for some exes -- see the Joe Alwyn connection to her new album -- it makes sense why some would assume there was bad blood here.

That's just not the case though ... Calvin is in her rearview, and wasn't even invisible in her side-view mirrors for this brief reunion of sorts.

Usher se ha subido al tren de la ropa interior de Kim Kardashian. Es la estrella más reciente en asociarse con ella y promover su línea SKIMS y sí, está sin camisa para hacerlo.

Kim y compañía fueron capaces de conseguir a Usher para su campaña de SKIMS, y lo consiguieron para su línea de ropa interior para hombres. Presentando su SKIMS Stretch colección, así como su SKIMS colección de algodón.

Como parte de este nuevo lanzamiento con Usher, también están lanzando cuatro nuevas combinaciones de colores.

No hace falta decir que el hecho de que KK firmara a Usher en SKIMS es un gran negocio, sobre todo porque él es un símbolo sexual muy conocido, incluso estos días. Podemos ver al Sr. Raymond a torso desnudo, con sus cincelados abdominales en la pantalla.

También filmaron un video para promocionar este nuevo equipo, en el cual Usher habla de por qué firmó, pero lo más importante, cómo todo esto se relaciona con su nuevo álbum "Coming Home".

Basándonos en esto, podríamos pensar que este es un gran momento para él. Usher parece estar inclinándose hacia sus raíces R & B, incluyendo lo que lo hizo súper popular para empezar, como su aspecto asesino. Hay una edición digital limitada de su álbum que está siendo lanzado como parte de la asociación... que está lanzando el 8 de febrero a las 9 PM PT / Feb. 9 a medianoche ET.

En cuanto a estos nuevos productos SKIMS, la ropa interior va a estar disponible a partir del 12 de febrero a las 9 AM PT. Usted puede obtenerlos en el sitio web SKIMS Men Shop.

La adición de Usher a la alineación viene en los talones de Kim enganchando a otros para hacerle publicidad a su empresa. Recordemos que ella ya tiene Neymar Jr., Nick Bosa y otros tipos calientes a su disposición, y ahora, Usher está en la ecuación.

SKIMS se está apoderando del mundo de la moda, todo el mundo parece dispuesto a desnudarse y apoyar el producto, haciendo que te preguntes, ¿cómo diablos se sienten estas cosas en persona?

Red Bull team principal Christian Horner is at the center of an investigation ... after a staffer within the Formula One organization accused the longtime boss of alleged inappropriate behavior.

The energy drink giant released a statement on Monday ... saying,  "After being made aware of certain recent allegations, the company launched an independent investigation."

Red Bull added the probe is being conducted by an outside party ... and it takes the situation "extremely seriously."

Horner -- who has been with the organization since it joined the grid in 2005 -- has denied the allegations ... although the nature of the claims was not revealed.

Horner is by far the most successful team principal in the sport today -- winning the constructors championship six times at the helm ... and overseeing six drivers championships, most recently with Max Verstappen.

Outside of F1, he's also famously married to Geri Halliwell ... AKA Ginger Spice.

It's unclear if this will have any effect on the upcoming F1 schedule ... as the first race of the season kicks off with the Bahrain Grand Prix in March.

Usher is hopping aboard Kim Kardashian's undergarment train -- he's just the most recent star to partner up with her and promote her SKIMS line ... and yeah, he's shirtless for it.

Kim and co. were able to get Usher to agree to be the newest face for their SKIMS Men's campaign -- and they got him to rock their underwear line for fellas ... including their SKIMS Stretch collection as well as their SKIMS Cotton collection.

As part of this new drop featuring Usher ... they're also releasing 4 new colorways.

It goes without saying -- the fact KK signed Usher to SKIMS is a huge deal ... especially since he's a well-known sex symbol, even these days. That's sorta alluded to in this photo shoot here -- where Mr. Raymond is baring his torso, with his chiseled abs on display.

BTW, there was a video filmed for this team-up as well ... and in it, Usher talks about why he signed on, but more importantly -- how it relates to this new album of his, "Coming Home."

Based on what he says here, you could argue this is a full circle moment for him -- Usher seems to be leaning into his R&B roots ... including what made him uber popular to begin with, like his killer looks. There's a limited edition digital version of his album that's dropping as part of the partnership ... it's releasing on Feb. 8 at 9 PM PT/Feb. 9 at midnight ET.

As for these new SKIMS products themselves ... the undies are gonna be up for grabs starting Feb. 12 at 9 AM PT -- you can obviously get 'em on the SKIMS Men Shop website.

Usher's addition to the lineup comes on the heels of Kim snagging other hunks in the industry to advertise her company -- remember, she already got Neymar Jr., Nick Bosa and other hot dudes to rock the gear ... and now, Usher is in the mix as well.

SKIMS is low-key taking over the fashion world -- everyone seems willing to strip down and pimp the product ... making ya wonder, how the hell do these things feel in person.

Tate McRae parece tener una nueva llama en The Kid LAROI, es decir, si su apretón de manos durante el fin de semana puede tomarse en serio.

La cantante fue vista muy cariñosa con el artista australiano. Fueron fotografiados de la mano saliendo de una cena con Justin y Hailey Bieber el sábado, esto en los talones de su cabeza de cartel en el partido de la NHL All-Star de manera espectacular.

Desde la demostración de amor en público, la gente está asumiendo lo obvio... que están saliendo.

El lenguaje corporal de Tate y TKL definitivamente parecía estar telegrafiando una relación entre ellos y Kid parecía feliz de jugar al caballero, llevando Tate en su carro de forma romántica.

La pareja dio inicio a los rumores de citas apenas el mes pasado, apareciendo de vacaciones juntos en México, y más tarde fueron vistos disfrutando de un tiempo a solas en Los Ángeles en un restaurante italiano de lujo llamado Giorgio Baldi.

Tate estaba saliendo con la estrella de hockey sobre hielo Cole Sillinger, que supuestamente inspiró su mega-éxito "Greedy" de 2023 que filmó reveladoramente en una pista de hockey sobre hielo.

Su actuación el pasado fin de semana fue un poco irónico en ese sentido, pero ahora, ella tiene un nuevo amor.

En cuanto a Kid, estuvo saliendo con la influencer Katarina Deme durante tres años antes de borrar todo rastro de ella de su Insta en agosto de 2023. A primera vista, todos se atraen mutuamente.

Tate McRae seems to have a new flame in The Kid LAROI -- that is, if their hand-hold over the weekend is any indication ... and it most certainly seems to be.

The singer was spotted getting cozy with the Aussie entertainer ... as they were photographed hand in hand while exiting dinner with Justin and Hailey Bieber Saturday -- this on the heels of her headlining the NHL All-Star game in dramatic fashion.

From the PDA alone, most everyone is assuming the obvious ... they're dating.

Tate's and TKL's body language definitely seemed to be telegraphing a new relationship status between them ... and the Kid was happy to play gentleman, leading TMR to their car through a massive pap crush.

This has been a long time coming if you've been following along -- the pair kicked off dating rumors just last month ... they appeared to vacation in Mexico together, and were later spotted enjoying some alone time at L.A.'s upscale Italian restaurant Giorgio Baldi.

Tate was previously dating ice hockey star Cole Sillinger ... who supposedly inspired her 2023 mega-hit "Greedy" ... which she tellingly filmed at an ice hockey rink.

Her performance this past weekend was a bit ironic in that sense -- but now, she's got a new boo.

As for Kid, he was dating influencer Katarina Deme for 3 years ... before scrubbing all traces of her from her IG in August 2023. On the face of it, they're all in on each other.

Taylor Swift podría tener una indirecta más para su ex novio -Joe Alwyn- es decir, si su nuevo álbum está relacionado con un club de chicos... y parece que es así.

Fans con ojos de águila se dieron cuenta de que el próximo proyecto de Tay Tay -que ella ha titulado "The Tortured Poets Department"- suena extrañamente similar a un grupo que Joe admitió una vez que había creado entre sus amigos en el mundo virtual, y Taylor podría estar troleándolo en su cara.

La razón por la que muchos están llegando a esa conclusión es que Joe contó este pequeño detalle hace un par de años durante una entrevista que le hizo Paul Mescal en un segmento de "Actors on Actors".

En la entrevista, Paul y Joe -que son amigos- revelaron que forman parte de un grupo de WhatsApp llamado "Tortured Man Club" (Club del Hombre Torturado)... donde, al parecer, comparten sus problemas con sus parejas. Se rieron de ello, señalando que ya no estaban tan torturados.

Esto fue durante una época en la que Paul y Joe estaban ambos en relaciones. Joe estaba obviamente todavía con Tay Tay a finales de 2022, y el propio Paul estaba saliendo con la cantante Phoebe Bridgers.

Por supuesto, el nombre de su club es una broma y suena inquietantemente similar al título del nuevo álbum de Taylor. Hay que tener en cuenta que Paul rompió con Phoebe no mucho tiempo después de esta charla con Joe (por no hablar de Joe y Taylor rompiendo), aparentemente todo está conectado.

Curiosamente, Taylor y Phoebe son mejores amigas estos días, así que sí, es una indirecta.

Mientras que sus fans se deleitan con esta nueva amistad, básicamente se viene otro álbum post-ruptura con Taylor quemando a su ex. Algunos están levantando una ceja si esta es de hecho la ruta que está siguiendo, porque ella está metida hasta las rodillas en una relación con Travis Kelce.

El hecho es que si Taylor va a utilizar un álbum entero (o una buena parte de él) para destrozar a Joe y airear sus sentimientos acerca de su ruptura -lo cual la mayoría de la gente está asumiendo- entonces hace que te preguntes... ¿cómo se sentirá Kelce al respecto?

No es el tipo de persona que se muerde la lengua, y tienes que imaginar que si le molestara, lo haría saber. Su álbum saldrá en unos dos meses, así que ya veremos que es lo que pasa.

Por cierto, recientemente nos encontramos con  la estrella de "Million Dollar Matchmaker" -Patti Stanger- y nos dieron sus impresiones acerca de Taylor y Travis, y si ella piensa que van a continuar juntos.

Resulta que Patti cree que van a terminar casándose, y compartió algunas especulaciones de como debe ser la vida sexual de la pareja. Según ella, ¡tienen muy buen sexo!

Una cosa más Swifties... tenemos un nuevo pódcast que sale esta semana en el que tocaremos todas las cosas relacionadas a Taylor Swift, que se llama "TMZ Swift-Tea" y vamos a estar hablando todo sobre Tay Tay... TODO, lo bueno o malo.

Killer Mike's officially putting his arrest at the Grammys on the back burner, because after a long wait, his oldest son is finally getting a kidney transplant ... TMZ Hip Hop has learned.

Sources connected to the Grammy-winning rapper tell us Mike is with his son Mikael "Pony Boy" Render Monday as he undergoes the transplant surgery. The 21-year-old has been waiting for a kidney match for 3 years.

Back in November, Mikael got bumped up on the transplant waitlist, and his proud dad talked about it during an interview with Graham Bensinger.

Mike has said Mikael -- who's a musician and rapper, just like Dad -- never had a chance to fully experience his teenage years, because of his battle with kidney disease.

The fact Pony Boy's number got called for the transplant today, of all days, seems like a strange twist of fate ... considering his dad's weekend of some major ups and downs.

TMZ broke the story ... Killer Mike was awarded 3 Grammys Sunday at L.A.'s Crytpo.com Arena -- but he also got arrested.

He was booked for misdemeanor battery after allegedly knocking over a security guard at the venue, but was quickly released on his own recognizance. After getting released ... Mike was in relatively good spirits, even though he'd gone through a fairly dramatic situation.

Paps tried talking to him about it in the aftermath -- but he wasn't really trying to talk much about it ... keeping his attention on the music. In light of this news about his son ... his mind was clearly elsewhere, as he had more important matters to attend to.

Mike won Grammys for Best Rap Album, Best Rap Song and Best Rap Performance -- but today his focus is purely on Mikael's surgery.

Taylor Swift might have one more dig for her ex-boyfriend, Joe Alwyn -- that is, if her new album is in any tied to a boy's club he admitted to have created ... and it sure seems to be.

Eagle-eyed fans noticed that Tay Tay's forthcoming project -- which she's titled "The Tortured Poets Department" -- sounds eerily similar to a group that Joe once admitted he'd created among his buddies in the virtual world ... and on its face, Taylor might be trolling it.

The reason many are jumping to that conclusion -- Joe spilled this little detail a couple years ago during an interview he did with Paul Mescal on an 'Actors on Actors' segment.

In the sit-down, Paul and Joe -- who are friends, BTW -- reveal they're part of a WhatsApp group called the 'Tortured Man Club' ... where they apparently share their woes about their significant others. They had a good laugh about it, noting they weren't so tortured anymore.

This was during a time when Paul and Joe were both in relationships -- Joe was obviously still with Tay Tay in late 2022, and PM himself was dating singer Phoebe Bridgers.

Of course, the name of their joke-y club sounds eerily similar to Taylor's new album title ... almost to a T. And considering that Paul broke up with Phoebe not too long after this chat with Joe (not to mention Joe and Taylor hitting Splitsville) ... it's all seemingly connected.

Funny enough, Taylor and Phoebe are low-key BFFs these days ... so yeah, it's a dig.

While her fans are reveling in this perceived connection -- basically, it's yet another post-breakup album with Taylor torching her ex -- some are raising an eyebrow if this is in fact the route she's pursuing ... 'cause she's knee-deep in a relationship with Travis Kelce.

Fact is ... if Taylor's gonna use a whole album (or a good portion of it) to trash Joe/air out her feelings about their breakup -- which most people assume is the case at this point -- then it makes ya wonder ... how does TK feel about that???

He's not the type to hold his tongue -- and you gotta imagine if he's bothered by it, he'd let it be known. Her album is coming out in about 2 months ... so we'll see, we suppose.

BTW, we recently ran into "Million Dollar Matchmaker" star Patti Stanger ... and we got her thoughts about Taylor and Travis, generally, and whether she thinks they'll go the distance.

As it turns out ... PS does think they'll get hitched eventually, and had some other interesting insights -- including what their sexual chemistry might be like between the sheets. According to her, they have great sex!

One more thing we'll leave you with regarding TS -- we actually have a new podcast coming out this week that touches on all things T-Swift ... it's called "TMZ Swift-Tea" and we're going to be talking all about Tay Tay and everything that comes with her ... good or bad.

Ludacris is recalling a wild moment from his win at the Grammys back in the day ... and it's all about Justin Timberlake's explicit reaction to Luda's big night -- which sounds jarring.

The story, as Ludacris explained on "Drink Champs," goes like this ... Ludacris was backstage at the 2007 Grammys after winning the award for Best Rap Album and he was dropping f-bombs and letting out his emotions.

Back then, Ludacris says artists went into little holding areas only separated by thin curtains ... which didn't offer much privacy.

Once Ludacris ended his celebration, he says he heard a voice from the other side of the curtain ... "Shut the f*** up, some of us didn't win any g****** Grammys!!!"

Luda says he pulled back the curtain ... only to find Justin Timberlake standing there, and in his mind -- it was clearly him who yelled it.

Hard to tell if Luda is all that bent out of shape about it -- if anything, he seems to find it more amusing than anything all these years later. Based on his demeanor here, he clearly loves to tell the tale and still gets a kick out of it in 2024.

Ludacris says he was extra amped after winning the award because he had come up short for years and set out to win a Grammy when he recorded "Release Therapy."

Justin's funny outburst was a bit premature ... he lost Best Pop Vocal Album and Album Of The Year for "FutureSex/LoveSounds" but won two Grammys ... Best Rap/Song Collaboration for "My Love" and Best Dance Recording for "Sexy Back."

FWIW, Luda says it's all love with Justin ... calling JT "gangsta" -- so he's good in his book.

Ludacris recordó un gran momento de una vieja victoria en los Grammys. Se trata de la reacción de Justin Timberlake a la gran noche de Luda.

La historia, como Ludacris explicó en "Drink Champs", es así: Ludacris estaba en el backstage de los Grammys 2007 después de ganar el premio al Mejor Álbum de Rap y estaba dejando salir sus emociones.

En aquel entonces, Ludacris dice que los artistas iban a pequeñas áreas de espera que estaban separadas únicamente por finas cortinas que no ofrecían mucha privacidad.

Una vez que Ludacris terminó su celebración, dice que oyó una voz desde el otro lado de la cortina: "¡Cállate la p*** boca, algunos de nosotros no ganamos ningún g****** Grammys!"

Luda dice que corrió la cortina solo para encontrar a Justin Timberlake de pie... claramente fue él quien lo gritó.

Luda parece encontrar muy divertido este asunto todos estos años después. Basándonos en su comportamiento, está claro que le encanta contar la historia y todavía se divierte en 2024.

Ludacris dice que estaba muy emocionado después de ganar el premio porque se había quedado corto durante años y se había propuesto ganar un Grammy cuando grabó "Release Therapy".

El divertido arrebato de Justin fue un poco prematuro, perdió Mejor Álbum Pop Vocal y Álbum del Año por "FutureSex/LoveSounds" pero ganó dos Grammys, Mejor Colaboración Rap/Canción por "My Love" y Mejor Grabación Dance por "Sexy Back".

A propósito, Luda dice que solo tiene amor por Justin, llamando a JT "gangsta" - por lo que es bueno en su libro.

Miley Cyrus' big night at the Grammys -- scooping up 2 trophies -- is raising eyebrows because she totally excluded her dad, Billy Ray Cyrus, from her acceptance speeches.

Miley first bagged the Best Pop Solo Performance Award for her hit song "Flowers" before the song later cinched the Record of the Year trophy -- and while she thanked several key people in her life onstage, she notably omitted mention of the iconic country musician.

The former Disney star went through the laundry list of people she wanted to thank -- her team, everyone onstage with her, her BF Maxx Morando, as well as her mom, Tish Cyrus, and sister, Brandi Cyrus -- but Billy didn't get a coveted shout-out.

The snub was even more pronounced as Miley made a concerted effort to ensure she didn't overlook anyone ... turning to her team behind her, asking: "Anyone else? Your wife, your fiancée, all the people that we love. Thank you all so much."

Even her undergarments got a playful shout-out, as she joked: "I don't think I forgot anyone. But, I might have forgotten underwear. Bye!" ... but as for a mention of Billy? Nada!

The omission may be a wholly innocent slip of the mind or may allude to an extension of reports from 2022 that Miley's relationship with Billy was strained following his divorce from Tish ... who attended the Grammys with her daughter.

Remember, Miley once shared a special bond with Billy who played a pivotal role in launching her career through "Hannah Montana" -- they shared the screen on all 4 seasons of the TV show, and the subsequent film.

If there is family tension, Miley didn't show it though -- she was glowing during the rest of her acceptance speech, saying: "This award is amazing, but I really hope it doesn't change anything because my life was beautiful yesterday."

Miley added, "Not everyone will get a Grammy, but everyone in this world is spectacular, so please don't think this is important, even though it's very important."
