As much as it must have been hard for the Grammys to deny Mars \u2014 who has won 11 gramophones \u2014 this cheapened what the awards are supposed to be all about. <\/p>\n<p>And the fact that it looked like a video \u2014 dusted off from some old reel-to-reel tape from the \u201970s \u2014 rather than a real live performance didn\u2019t help matters. But Mars \u2014 the consummate showman that he is \u2014 redeemed that dubious appearance with his Little Richard tribute later on in the show.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" alt=\"Jack Antonoff, Taylor Swift, and Aaron Dessner perform onstage for the 63rd Annual GRAMMY Awards\" class=\"wp-image-17561986 lazyload\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/03\/taylor-swift-grammys-3.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=300 300w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/03\/taylor-swift-grammys-3.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=640 640w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/03\/taylor-swift-grammys-3.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1280 1280w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/03\/taylor-swift-grammys-3.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1024 1024w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/03\/taylor-swift-grammys-3.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=2000 2000w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><figcaption>Taylor Swift\u2019s quarantine album Folklore earned the star the Album of the Year Grammy.<\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">Getty Images<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"WORST_Taylor_Swift\"><\/span>WORST: Taylor Swift<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Taylor Swift\u2019s quarantine album \u201cFolklore\u201d was an LP that captured the isolation that we were feeling in 2020.
