Scandalously known
A rare premium this year costs without scandals, so why would Grammy become an exception? His "fi" she sharply expressed the Canadian singer The Weeknd, who called on to boycott the distribution of figurines. I did not like the artist's thing that his album After hours and hit blinding lights were excluded from the list of nominations, despite the fact that they perfectly showed themselves in charts and were well sold. The singer was naturally offended and stated that it would no longer allow his label to provide his music "Grammy". By the way, not only fans supported the musician. Against the background of the proceedings, the Bayonce refused to appear on the show. In fact, the causes of such a decision nominated this time in the artist (she claimed awards in 9 categories!) Unknown, but, of course, fans immediately tied it with the situation with The Weeknd. Not left aside and Zain Malik. The British singer sent "Grammy" "to hell" and accused a premium in corruption: "If you have no connections or you do not give gifts to the right people, you can forget about the nomination," he wrote in Twitter.
Holiday be
The organizers, apparently, decided not to focus on the information noise around the ceremony and, as if nothing had happened in the Staples Center. I must say, all the main stars of the evening are the same Beyonce, and Billy Alish, Taylor Swift, Dua Lipa and Cardi Bi - were in place. So the idea with a boycott clearly failed.
Some unexpected names of some laureates became known in advance. In particular, the reward for Brown Skin Girl as the "Best Music Video" of Beyonce divided Blue Ivi with a 9-year-old daughter, singing a couple of fragments in the track.
The sensation was that the "best remix recording" was recognized by the version of Roses Saint Jhn from the student of the Kazakhstan railway school of Imanbek Zeikenov, now known as Imanbek. The guy became the first musician from Kazakhstan, ever received "Grammy", and the first of the CIS and the former USSR, which made it in the category of non-classical music. Cool record!
Already on the scene of the ceremony itself, the heat was going on! He opened the Grammy Harry Stiles with Track Watermelon Sugar. The following was marked by the performances of Billy Isilish (in Finneas O'Connela), Dua Lipa, Taylor Swift, Bruno Mars, Megan Thee Stallion, Cardi Bee, Post Malone, BTS and many others. In general, the best sang for the best: in the hall, we will remind, we sat alone the stars for small round tables in compliance with all the norms of the social distance.
Total table
It is no secret that in the American National Academy of Art and Science of Recording, which gives the Grammy, is very loved by Beyonce. In 2010, she had already installed a record, picking up the largest number of awards - 6. And now it became clear that it was only preparation for the current event. So, Queen Bi nominated in 9 categories. And she took the awards not only for the clip with his daughter, but also for the "best R & B-execution", the "best rap execution" and the "best rap song" with Megan Thee Stallion. Thus, in the piggy bank of the singer now 28 awards, which makes it the most titled performer in history.
By the way, Megan Thee Stallion also did not remain in the shade of Beyonce: she was recognized as the "best new performer."
As for the other favorites of the ceremony, they did not leave without awards. Billy Isilish for the second year in a row won the nomination "Record of the Year" with the Track Everything I Wanted. Dua Lipa took the "gramophone" for pop album of the year. The best album was recognized by Folklore Taylor Swift. The song of the year became I Can't Breathe Hip-Hop singers H.E.r. And the best solo artist is Harry Stiles. Tandem Lady Gaga and Ariana Grande won the nomination "Best Pop Performance by a group or duet."
