Can Alicia Keys host, well, everything? Keys, the first female host for the Grammys in 14 years, won high praise for bringing coolness and classto music’s biggest night, which saw big wins for women and rap. Childish Gambino’s “This Is America” made history, winning Grammys for song and record of the year. That’s the first time a rap song has ever won those two coveted awards.
The “girl power” vibes started out with a surprise appearance by Michelle Obama during the show’s opening, and they continued with country singer Kacey Musgraves nabbing four Grammys, including album of the year for “Golden Hour,” and rapper Cardi B becoming the first woman to win best rap album. Soaring tributes to Dolly Parton and the late Aretha Franklin were highlights of the night, as well as Diana Ross’ 75th birthday performance. Here’s the full list of the winners, the night in photos and all the red carpet looks.
