Harry Styles got his first Grammy award on Sunday evening, taking home the award for the best solo pop performance for his hit song “Watermelon Sugar.”

During Harry’s acceptance speech, he thanked the
people who helped him record the song, and then for a few seconds, the
broadcast cut off the sound. Ideally, that signifies that someone is using profanity
which is not allowed on primetime TV, and it was indeed true in this matter; however,
the content of his speech was more of a compliment than being a context with
profanity.
What Harry was actually saying during the censored
portion of his acceptance speech? Harry was actually complimenting his fellow
nominees in the category along with him.
I feel very grateful to be here. All these songs are f**king massive.
– Harry Styles
His competition in this category included Justin
Bieber’s “Yummy,” Doja Cat’s “Say So,” Billie Eilish’s “Everything I Wanted,”
Dua Lipa’s “Don’t Start Now,” and Taylor Swift’s “Cardigan.” His fellow
nominees for the Grammys were in fact applauding and smiling in the audience,
which includes Taylor Swift, who dated Harry a few years back.
Styles performed his Grammy-winning song to commence the broadcast, presenting with a jazzy, sultry rendition of the pop hit. He also made an outfit change between the performance and his acceptance speech a little later, starting out the evening with an open-front leather suit and a green boa, he then changed it with brown corduroy pants, a striped V-neck sweater, a green plaid jacket, and another boa in pale purple.
It has been a
big night for Harry, and it’s totally sweet that he took a moment to compliment
the other musicians in his category and funnily that this was the moment where
he got censored during this speech.
Anyways, congratulations Harry Styles for it was
indeed a watermelon sugar victory…
