Calvin Harris gushes over ‘beautiful girlfriend’ Taylor Swift

On February 11, it became obvious that the Kanye-Taylor feud would quickly be reignited after West debuted his new song, “Famous“, during his Yeezy Season 3 launch at Madison Square Garden.

Without uttering Kanye’s name, Swift left no doubt who she was referring to, and social media was quick to respond.

She managed to fit together snippets of 10 of his iconic songs, including “Space Oddity” and “Heroes”, into a psychedelic sing-along as she danced all over the stage.

Swift, 26, noted in her acceptance speech she was the first woman to win Album of the Year twice and urged fellow young women to stay focused and be proud of their accomplishments.

In that song, Kanye West slammed Taylor Swift with what have since been called misogynistic lyrics, rapping “I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex/Why?”

No matter what you make of Trainor’s brand of empowering bubblegum pop, you’d have to be made of steel for not falling for her extremely emotional speech in accepting her first Grammy for best new artist. “I made that b***h famous“.

After winning rap album of the year for “To Pimp a Butterfly”, he was gracious and respectful of all the great rappers to come before him.

Mainstream tastes were also on display in the two dance/electronic awards which both went to Skrillex and Diplo, the hit-making Los Angeles producers who crafted celebrity Justin Bieber’s new sound.

The overall number dipped from last year’s 25.3 million viewers, which was the smallest TV audience for music’s biggest night since 2009’s 19.1 million viewers. But it’s people going through real issues out here.

On Facebook, 21 million people posted about the show, and Lady Gaga’s colourful tribute to late singer David Bowie was the most talked-about moment. Stevie Wonder, wishing that Earth, Wind & Fire’s White “rest in eternal bliss and peace”, sang “That’s The Way of the World” with the vocal group Pentatonix.

After the messy release of and ambiguous response to Anti, Rihanna was hit by more bad luck when she had to cancel her performance at the last minute.

Before introducing the television debut of The Hollywood Vampires, which includes Alice Cooper, Johnny Depp and Joe Perry, Foo Fighter’s Dave Grohl paid homage to the leader of Motorhead, singer-songwriter Lemmy Kilmister, who died in December.
