Grammy Awards, Beyoncé nella storia e Billie Eilish disco dell'anno: tutti i vincitori

Nella notte Trevor Noah ha presentato l'edizione numero 63 dei Grammy Awards, direttamente dallo Staples Center di Los Angeles. Il numero degli spettatori, a causa della pandemia di COVID-19, è stato sensibilmente ridotto, con le star che hanno sfilato in solitaria sul red carpet. Lo show è stato aperto da Harry Styles con Watermelon Sugar.

Star principale della serata è stata Beyoncé, capace di conquistare ben quattro premi e raggiungendo quota 28 riconoscimenti, un record nella storia della musica, superando la violinista Alison Krauss, ferma a 27.
L'ex Destiny's Child ha conquistato anche il premio nella categoria dei video musicali per Brown Skin Girl, in coppia con la figlia Blue Ivy Carter, a soli 9 anni la più giovane vincitrice di tutti i tempi.

Grande successo anche per Taylor Swift, che grazie alla vittoria per il miglior album dell'anno con Folklore è la prima artista donna ad ottenere tre vittorie di questo tipo e affiancando leggende come Frank Sinatra, Stevie Wonder e Paul Simon.
Nella categoria miglior disco ha trionfato Billie Eilish con Everything I Wanted, con Megan Thee Stallion vittoriosa come nuova miglior artista. Il premio al miglior duo pop è andato a Lady Gaga e Ariana Grande mentre Dua Lipa ha vinto il premio per il miglior album di canzoni pop, con il riconoscimento a brano dell'anno per H.E.R. con I Can't Breathe.
