Fans were quick to take to social media to express their disappointment. One person compared Swift’s speech to Miley Cyrus’ who made it all about Mariah Carey, who presented her with her first ever Grammy.

Another user compared the two moments pointing at the “disrespect” Swift has given to “Legendary” singer.
