Beyoncé won multiple awards and was still there when Harry won (can’t remember if that was the end!) but she prob arrived late because she skips red carpets (think she will only let her own photographer take pics imo). The unarchived pic seems to be fake if you check the replies here as wellI can’t find it all now because I haven’t been absorbing it all after the great double album clowning but there’s a post on her IG about the original reputation coming out in 3 days time that was un-archived yesterday…3 days before the Grammys.
I think people like Taylor get a bit of a heads up that they *might* win something to get them to attend. Last year Beyonce arrived just before she won her award and missed the rest of the show - she knew she was winning. Taylor didn’t attend in 2020 when Lover was nominated and didn’t win.
she might do the Grammys, she might do Tokyo. I feel like either way we’ll know next week.

It definitely is the next week though!!!! Like you said Grammys or not. I agree that the big people probably get told at least a bit of what they’re winning - the rumour goes that Taylor felt burned by the Grammys so wouldn’t perform anything for folklore but they told her she would win album of the year so she did it
