Taylor Swift, who scored
seven nominations, opened the ceremony with the first TV performance of Out Of
The Woods from 1989.
Taylor Swift use a Grammy
award acceptance speech to dismiss Kanye West's claims that he is the person
who made her famous.
A song on West's new album
- The Life Of Pablo - includes lyrics that claim he propelled her to stardom
when he upstaged her at the MTV Video Music Awards in 2009 to declare that
Beyonce should have won her prize.
After her record 1989 was
named album of the year at the 58th Grammy Awards in Los Angeles, Swift took to
the stage with her many collaborators and said: "As the first woman to win
album of the year at the Grammys twice, I want to say to all the young women
out there: there are going to be people along the way who will try to undercut
your success or take credit for your accomplishments or your fame.
"But if you just focus
on the work and don't let those people side-track you, some day when you get
where you're going you will look around and know it was you and the people who
love you who put you there, and that will be the greatest feeling in the
world."
Swift also won Grammys for
best pop vocal album for 1989 and best music video for Bad Blood, her
collaboration with rapper Kendrick Lamar.
