The 2023 Grammys went down tonight — and when it came to Album of the Year, there was a bit of an upset.

Basically, it was expected that Beyoncé — who, to date, has never won Album of the Year — would take home the prize for Renaissance.

However, that...didn’t happen. Instead, Harry Styles took home the prize for his blockbuster album Harry’s House.

He looked surprised, too.

A little uncomfortable, even.

Of course, Twitter had some thoughts on what transpired. Here's what people have been saying — and, for the Harry fans out there, we're just sharing these, so don't get mad at us:

kinda feel like harry styles winning over beyonce was engineered by someone who hates harry styles with an unrivaled passion. it would be the perfect plan…to give him the moment of a lifetime but stain it with the justified outrage and hate of millions

Two things can be true at once: 1) Beyoncé has been historically snubbed by the Recording Academy and deserves her flowers 2) I can be a Harry Styles fan and be happy that he won an award when I’ve watched his career grow while also acknowledging his privilege
