Taylor Swift went home empty-handed after the 2025 Grammys despite earning six nominations for “The Tortured Poets Department.”
Swift lost in the best music video category to Kendrick Lamar’s “Not Like Us.” She later lost best pop vocal album to Sabrina Carpenter’s “Short N’ Sweet.”
The pop star was also nominated for best pop duo/group performance, record of the year, song of the year and album of the year.

Swift was up against Andre 3000, Sabrina Carpenter, Charli XCX, Jacob Collier, Billie Eilish, Chappell Roan and Beyoncé for album of the year.
Beyoncé took home the accolade – a first for the musician.
The “16 Carriages” singer thanked Los Angeles Country firefighters after a group presented the award. “I’d like to thank and acknowledge and praise all the firefighters for keeping us safe,” Beyoncé said during her acceptance speech.

“I think sometimes genre is a code word to keep us in our place as artists and I just want to encourage people to do what they’re passionate about. Stay persistent.”
