ADELE cheered on Harry Styles' Grammy Awards acceptance speech - despite some fans thinking she'd stormed off after losing out.

Adele, 34, went head-to-head with Harry in the prestigious Album of the Year category and was nominated for her 2021 record 30, but she wasn't triumphant this time.

It was 29-year-old Harry who scooped the accolade for his 2022 album Harry's House.

As he took to the stage wearing a silver sparkly top and an oversized white blazer, the former One Direction star seemed genuinely shell-shocked.

Holding his award, he told the star-studded crowd: "Man... erm... I've been so, so inspired by every artist in this category with me."

At this point, the camera panned to mother-of-one Adele who was seen with fellow singer Lizzo who laughed at her, with some fans thnking she'd walked out.

Harry continued: "A lot of different times in my life, I listened to everyone in this category when I'm alone and I think like on nights like tonight, it's obviously so important for us to remember that there is no such thing as best in music.

"I don't think any of us sit in the studio thinking, making decisions based on what is gonna get us one of these.

"This is really, really kind, I'm so, so grateful. I'm gonna pass it over to my collaborators who are... I'm just so.... this doesn't happen to people like me very often and it's so, so nice, thank you very much," Harry added.

Towards the end of the speech, Adele was caught smiling and nodding, proving that perhaps there is no bad feelings about the outcome.

But fans were divided when it came to the result, with some incorrectly thinking Adele had walked off.

"Bruh did y’all see the camera cut with Adele walking away like 'f**k this s**t'," one person tweeted.

"i'm actually soo proud of him and this was so well deserved congrats harry," another person posted.

Someone else disagreed and wrote: "as much as i love Harry, Adele released a magnificent album last year and deserved that award."

Other nominees in the category included Coldplay, Beyoncé, and ABBA.

BEY'S BIG NIGHT

Beyoncé won the awards for Best Dance/Electronic Music Album and Best Dance/Electronic Recording for her track Break My Soul.

The 41-year-old looked incredible in a metallic strapless gown and long black gloves as she fought back tears during one of her speeches.

"Thank you so much. I'm trying not to be too emotional, I'm trying to just receive this night..." she began.

"I want to thank God for protecting me, thank you God. I'd like to thank my uncle Johnny, who is not here but he's here in spirit. I'd like to thank my parents, my father, my mother, for loving me and pushing me.

"I'd like to thank my beautiful husband, my beautiful three children who are at home watching. I'd like to thank the queer community for your love and for inventing this genre.

"God bless you, thank you so much to the Grammys, thank you," she finished by saying as the audience applauded her.

One person who was delighted for Beyoncé was Today host Al Roker.

Al, 68, and his wife Deborah Roberts showed off their dancing skills on social media in honor of the music icon.

The couple posted their moves in a clip on Instagram soon after Beyoncé tied the record for the most Grammy Awards wins of all time, per Variety.
