17 of the Most Epic GIFs From the 2016 Grammys
Last night’s 2016 Grammys had everything: a performance from the Hamilton cast, a tribute to David Bowie by Lady Gaga, a classically subliminal message-filled Taylor Swift acceptance speech, Beyonce herself, and, most importantly, a literally fire performance from the Grammy-winning Kendrick Lamar himself. Okay...so that barely scratches the surface of everything that happened, but isn’t that the point? The show is a celebration of music, so by nature, there should be something for everyone. And there was! From the red carpet to the actual show,to the crowd’s reaction to the insanity of the show, the 2016 Grammys were wild. Here are the best GIF-worthy moments from the night.
1/17When Taylor and Selena were each other’s date.
Surprising no one, they followed Valentine’s day by going to the show together and looking sparkly as ever.
2/17When Selena gave us a Pantene-worthy moment.
Did she get paid for this?
3/17When Chrissy Teigen and John Legend showed off their happy family.
The family who slays together, stays together.
4/17When Ariana Grande got caught trippin’.
Maybe she couldn’t tell the difference between her dress and the carpet?
5/17When Carrie Underwood and Sam Hunt made you immediately start listening to country.
Okay, maybe not. But look at their chemistry! Can someone get these two in a Nicholas Sparks movie?
6/17When Adele sang along to the Weeknd’s performance.
Can we get a duet, you guys?
7/17When Kendrick showed everyone how a performance is done.
His performance left everyone stunned, and rightly so. It was incredible.
8/17...and also reminded everyone why his music is so important.
Preach, K dot.
9/17When Taylor did this upon spotting Pharrell.
I mean, #same, but isn’t he married? Do you want Bad Blood, girl?
10/17When John Legend brushed Chrissy Teigen’s shoulder off.
You better get that dirt off her shoulder.
11/17When this lady got a super sneaky photo of Taylor Swift.
We are all this lady.
12/17When Lady Gaga paid tribute to David Bowie
~*Has this printed out, framed, and hung in a spot where we can see it and cry daily~
13/17When Lionel Richie was feeling himself
Or, at least he was feeling other people’s covers of himself.
14/17When Justin Bieber, Skrillex and Diplo started a band.
What do ü mean you guys aren’t going to tour?!
15/17When Demi Lovato brought the house down.
She sang Lionel Richie’s “Hello,” and hopefully said “goodbye” to anyone still doubting her voice. Sorry, we had to.
16/17When Selena Gomez cheered on Taylor Swift from the crowd, thus redefining #friendshipgoals forever.
"That's my best friend!"
17/17When Taylor Swift (maybe?) snubbed Kanye after winning album of the year.
She said that “other people will try to take credit for your fame.” We already miss when she was wearing Yeezys, he was sending her flowers, and they were both working on albums. But he also kinda deserved that dig, and she totally deserved her moment.
