In a *Very* Emotional Speech, Adele Gives Her Album of the Year Grammy Award to Beyoncé
And yes, Beyoncé cried. So did we.

Adele won Album of the Year at the Grammy Awards, something many would consider to be an upset due to the *insane* strength of Beyoncé's Lemonade—an album that had a huge social impact, as well as an artistic one.
But a tearful Adele explained that she couldn't accept the award, telling Beyoncé that she deserved to win. She also said: "The way you make my black friends feel is empowering."
Understandably, Beyoncé was moved to tears:
Congratulations, Adele—for the win, and also for the perfect response to it.
