Written by George Michail

Πριν δύο μήνες ανακοινώθηκαν οι υποψηφιότητες για την 61η τελετή απονομής των σημαντικότερων μουσικών βραβείων, των Grammy και εχθές η μουσική βραδιά έλαβε χώρα στο Staples Center του Los Angeles με οικοδέσποινα την Alicia Keys. Οι καλλιτέχνες που ξεχωρίζαν φέτος έχοντας τις περισσότερες υποψηφιότητες ήταν o Kendrick Lamar με 8, ο Drake με 7, Boi-1da και Brandi Carlile με 6 ενώ Cardi B, Childish Gambino, H.E.R. και Lady Gaga είχαν 5 υποψηφιότητες. Μετά από την περσινή κατακραυγή για την έλλειψη γυναικών νικητών στα Grammy, φέτος οι γυναίκες «βγήκαν μπροστά».

H Alicia Keys παρουσίασε το νέο της τραγούδι:

Μεγάλες θριαμβεύτριες της βραδιάς ήταν οι Brandi Carlile, Lady Gaga και Kacey Musgraves ενώ σημαντικά βραβεία πήρε και ο Childish Gambino. H Gaga κέρδισε 3 βραβεία – μεταξύ αυτών το Καλύτερο Ποπ Ντουέτο με τον Bradley Cooper για το «Shallow» και την καλύτερη ποπ ερμηνεία με το «Joanne» – και ξεσήκωσε το κοινό με τη live ερμηνεία της.

Επίσης η Ariana Grande πήρε το πρώτο της Grammy και η Dua Lipa βραβεύτηκε ως Καλύτερος Νέος Καλλιτέχνης.

Live στην τελετή εμφανίστηκαν οι: Maren Morris, Miley Cyrus, Red Hot Chili Peppers, H.E.R., Camila Cabello, Post Malone και Cardi B. Στα δυνατά σημεία της βραδιάς η live εμφάνιση της Jennifer Lopez και της Diana Ross.
