Music lovers across the globe were on the edge of their seats waiting to hear who had won Album of the Year at this year's Grammy Awards, with Harry Styles ultimately taking home the trophy.
While many of the star's fans were over the moon with the accolade, some are now up in arms claiming that the 28-year-old's album Harry's House didn't deserve to win at all.
The former One Direction singer was clearly emotional as he took to the stage to accept the highest accolade in music on Sunday evening.

Competition was incredibly tough, with albums including 30 by Adele, Voyage by ABBA, Un verano sin ti by Bad Bunny, Good Morning Gorgeous by Mary J Blige, In These Silent Days by Brandi Carlile, Music of the Spheres by Coldplay, Kendrick Lamar's Mr. Morale & the Big Steppers, Lizzo's Special and Renaissance by Beyoncé all up for Album of the Year.
The news of Harry's win has divided social media, with some Twitter users claiming his album - which includes the hits 'As It Was' and 'Late Night Talk' - didn't deserve the award.
"NO. NO HARRY'S HOUSE DID NOT DESERVE AOTY BE FR," one Twitter user declared.
"Harry’s House won OMG I’m not mad about it but still Renaissance or 30 deserved more for me," concluded another Twitter critic.
While a Harry Styles fan confessed: "I love Harry Styles with all my heart and Harry’s House is my favorite album of his. It did not deserve AOTY over Renaissance or Bad Bunny."
There were even more disappointed music fans online who weren't happy with the result. "I’m sorry but that was not deserved…. Harry’s House ain’t did nothing to influence any culture this is just lame asf," one person tweeted.
Beyonce's fanbase, known as the Beyhive, were particularly flabbergasted by the news; so much so 'ROBBED' started trending on Twitter shortly after Harry collected his award.
Because the 'Break My Soul' hit maker has never won Album of the Year, and after the critical acclaim, Beyonce's fans believed she'd finally win the coveted honour this year.
Tweeting the Regina George's iconic meltdown scene from Mean Girls, one disheartened fan wrote: "Beyonce has yet again been robbed AOTY. I cant rn."
A second Grammys viewer posted: "Beyoncé was robbed yet again."
Another music fan shared: "Renaissance was flawless. 10/10. That album had everyone in a chokehold. Couldn’t listen to any other artist for months. What a slap in the f***ing face."
And a fourth added: "I'm being so serious when i say that, while i liked a couple songs on that album [Harry's House], he did not deserve to win over Renaissance."
Despite making history by winning more Grammy Awards than anyone earlier in the evening, her fans are fuming.
She took home Best Traditional R&B Performance ('Plastic Off The Sofa') and Best Dance/Electronic Recording ('Break My Soul').
She then won Best R&B Song for 'Cuff It' during the main part of the night, as well as Best Electronic/Dance Album.
So, it wasn't all bad for Queen Bey!
Meanwhile, Harry can also add Best Pop Vocal Album for Harry’s House and Best Engineered Album, Non-Classical to his award shelf too
We hope he has enough space in his house!
