Once again, Taylor Swift dominated Sunday night, this time at the Grammy Awards ceremony where she made history as the first person to win album of the year four times and slipped in a surprise album announcement.

She used her thirteenth Grammy win for best pop vocal album—13 being an especially significant number in Swiftie lore—to announce that her eleventh album, “The Tortured Poets Department,” would be out April 19.
