Taylor Swift may have lost the Song of the Year trophy at the 2016 Grammy Awards, but she's definitely going home with another award: Friend of the Year.

Yes, when Ed Sheeran's "Thinking Out Loud" beat Swift's "Blank Space" in the category, she was not only happy for her good pal, but she may have actually freaked out a little harder than he did.

Grabbing her head, jumping up and down and high-fiving BFF Selena Gomez, the cameras caught the 26-year-old singer flipping out big time after hearing Sheeran's name announced.

But this should come as no surprise for anyone who knows Swift and her love for her squad. The singer is always praising her musical friends, and considering she and Sheeran have known each other for several years, there's no doubt she'd be stoked to over his win.

Not to mention, the songstress already spoke out in excitement about his first win of the night—for Best Pop Solo Performance—after the Grammys announced it on Twitter. Swift simply responded, "YES." Obviously the love is there.

Meanwhile, though he maybe didn't appear as stoked as Swift, Sheeran was definitely excited about his big win, using his speech to thank his parents for continuing to believe in him and expressing his disbelief that Stevie Wonder presented him with the award.

"Thank you...to my parents who have flown in for the past four years to come to the Grammys every single year and every time i lose they go, 'Maybe next year!'"

"But honestly if you would have told my 11-year-old, 5-year-old, any age [self] that I would have ever received an award from Stevie Wonder I would have tripped, so thank you!"

Congrats to you, Mr. Sheeran!
