<p id=”par-1_75″><a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/tag/taylor-swift/?swcfpc=1″>Taylor Swift</a> cleaned house at the iHeartRadio Music Awards in 2025. The artist received 10 nominations and took home multiple awards, more than making up for <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/news/taylor-swift-didnt-win-grammy-awards-simple-reason.html/”>her lack of Grammy Awards this year</a>. While Swifties adore her music, they also have a heavy investment in her personal life — especially with <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/news/travis-kelce-taylor-swift-face-huge-hurdle-relationship-chiefs-super-bowl-loss.html/”>her romance with Travis Kelce</a> heating up. Here’s what a body language expert noticed about Swift’s gestures while she made her acceptance speech. </p>
<h2 class=”wp-block-heading” id=”h-taylor-swift-s-acceptance-speech-showed-she-hasn-t-been-relaxing-according-to-a-body-language-expert”>Taylor Swift’s acceptance speech showed she ‘hasn’t been relaxing,’ according to a body language expert</h2>
<p id=”par-2_74″>Taylor Swift earned 10 nominations at the iHeartRadio Music Awards in 2025. While she wasn’t there to accept her wins in person at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles, she’s forever grateful to her friends and family for supporting her through her years of groundbreaking music. Additionally, she’s thankful for Travis Kelce. The couple earned a nomination and a win for Favorite Surprise Guest, as Kelce joined one of Swift’s “Eras Tour” shows. </p>
<p id=”par-3_55″>“This tour was absolutely the most challenging thing I’ve ever done in my life … and it really was the most gratifying thing I’ve ever done,” Swift said during her recorded speech after “The Eras Tour” was named Tour of the Century. “It blows my mind, and I’m never gonna stop being grateful for it.”</p>
<p id=”par-4_13″>Celebrity body language expert Inbaal Honigman spoke to <a href=”https://www.casino.ca/” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>Casino.ca</a> about Swift’s gestures. </p>
<p id=”par-5_62″>“Taylor glances at the award again and again, as if she can’t believe that she’s really holding that statuette,” Honigman said. “We see her gazing away here and there, recalling memories of how that tour was for her. She speaks very passionately, moving her hands and her shoulders with her words; she’s fully invested in receiving the award and thanking the fans.”</p>
<p id=”par-6_38″>Honigman added that there’s “nothing to indicate any emotional fallout from <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/news/taylor-swift-embarrassed-booing-super-bowl-body-language-expert-says-hit-a-nerve.html/”>the booing incident</a> at the Super Bowl.” Swift looks confident as she faces the camera, “keeping eye contact with the lens and communicating directly with her fans.”</p>
<p id=”par-7_32″>The expert noted that Swift appeared to breathe “deeper and heavier” than in past acceptance speeches. “It tells us that her emotions are heightened,” Honigman continued. “There might even be physical exhaustion.”</p>
<p id=”par-8_44″>This deeper breathing lets us know that Taylor is struggling to find her balance, as things are changing and shifting around her; she hasn’t been relaxing,” the expert said. “She holds her hands mostly in front of her stomach as if protecting the area.”</p>

<h2 class=”wp-block-heading” id=”h-the-body-language-expert-noted-how-taylor-swift-appeared-visibly-uneasy-after-getting-booed-at-the-super-bowl”>The body language expert noted how Taylor Swift appeared ‘visibly uneasy’ after getting booed at the Super Bowl</h2>
<p id=”par-9_49″>Taylor Swift knows she has a huge fan base. However, she can’t please everyone. She was booed when she appeared on the jumbotron during Super Bowl LIX. According to body language expert Inbaal Honigman, Swift displayed “discomfort” during the pivotal Chiefs game and appeared <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/news/taylor-swift-looked-unsettled-insulted-getting-booed-super-bowl-body-language-expert-says.html/”>“visibly uneasy” during the booing</a>.</p>
<p id=”par-10_65″>“Taylor displays a range of expressions while watching Travis play — most of them conveying discomfort,” Honigman noted. “When the crowd erupts in boos, she appears visibly uneasy. Her lips curl downward, and her eyes dart from side to side as she mouths, ‘What’s going on?’ This reaction reflects confusion, dismay, and even a hint of hurt.” Honigman also noted that Swift looked “tense” even before the booing. </p>
<p id=”par-11_21″>Due to the recent event, Swift may have felt apprehensive about filming her acceptance speech for the iHeartRadio Music Awards. </p>
