Lana shared some sweet words about Rosalía while accepting her award. “To Rose, staggeringly amazing,” the singer said, adding, “Well, well, well deserved on being Woman of the Year.” She also had something to say about Sza, confessing, “from the minute I heard you, I knew I wanted to know you.”
“Lana has raised an entire generation of music lovers and songwriters like me,” Olivia Rodrigo said, welcoming Lana to the stage,“and taught them that there’s beauty in their vulnerability and power in their melancholy.”

Following the introduction Lana praised Olivia for her success. “I can’t tell you how much it means that someone [Olivia] who wrote ‘Drivers License’ is standing next to me,” she said.
There were more sweet moments throughout the night. Including Kim Petras, who said, “she couldn’t have made it through high school without Lana, Nick Minaj, and Madonna.”
