## Transcript

Oh my God, I just got stuck in the rain and traffic and thought I was going to miss this moment and I could have missed the award. That's fine. But Mariah Carey. I don't want to embarrass this young lady, but she has more Grammys and everyone and never won album of the year. So even by your own metrics, that doesn't work. Think about that the most Grammys never won album of the year at doesn't work. And I can't believe this is happening if it's very fake and I'm so sorry Taylor. I love you. I'm just very grateful that I have a good evening. Thank you to Greta Gerwig for making the best movie of the year.

Take me to Paul Walker for having a meeting where he said that we should have a song on the soundtrack and then calling me out of the blue and me like they want to be on the barbie soundtrack. I was like, yeah, of course we do. Taylor Swift One of my best friends who is not only one of my best friends, but also a once-in-a-generation producer. That's Jack Antonoff. I'm so lucky.
