While it didn't come as a complete shock that Meghan Trainor was honored as Best New Artist at the 2016 GRAMMY Awards on Monday, one person nevertheless appeared completely surprised by the win -- Trainor herself -- who instantly became emotional when the envelope was opened.

As soon as the 22-year-old "Dear Future Husband" singer's name was read, Trainor burst into tears while sitting next to her father, Gary Trainor. As she took the stage, she attempted not to cry but her efforts were in vain.
