The 68th annual Grammy Awards dazzled at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles. Music's biggest names turned out in force, delivering unforgettable red carpet moments and setting the stage for a night of historic wins and powerful performances. Trevor Noah hosted the ceremony for the sixth consecutive year.
Lady Gaga made a grand entrance in a custom black feathered gown with a high neck and long train by Matières Fécales. Her icy platinum blonde hair, styled in a romantic Medieval updo, and bleached brows completed the monochromatic look. Later, she took the stage for a rock-infused rendition of "Abracadabra," sporting a red and black fur long-sleeve top that flowed into a long black skirt, with a cage-like dome concealing her head. Gaga won Best Pop Vocal Album for "Mayhem" and delivered an empowering message to women in music, urging them to trust their instincts and fight for their ideas.
Justin Bieber, returning to the Grammy stage for his first major performance in four years, sported an oversized black Balenciaga suit with black dress shoes, accented by a Lorraine Schwartz Jewelry necklace. He later surprised the audience with a stripped-down performance of "Yukon," appearing shirtless in just shorts and socks. His wife, Hailey Bieber, stunned in a black sleeveless sheer Alaïa dress, and the couple was seen sharing affectionate moments throughout the night.
Bad Bunny made history, winning Album of the Year for "Debí Tirar Más Fotos," the first Spanish-language album to achieve this honor. He accepted the award wearing a striking Schiaparelli suit based on a 2023 couture look. During his acceptance speech, Bad Bunny made a statement saying "ICE out," advocating for human rights and equality.
Other notable moments included Kendrick Lamar surpassing Jay-Z as the most-awarded hip-hop artist in Grammys history, winning Best Rap Album for "GNX". Lamar also took home the Record of the Year award with SZA for their song "Luther". Olivia Dean was named Best New Artist. Billie Eilish and Finneas won Song of the Year for "Wildflower".
The red carpet saw a variety of bold fashion choices, with many attendees opting for black-and-white ensembles. Pink suits also made an appearance, and several artists sported "ICE Out" pins in support of immigration reform. The night also featured tributes to Ozzy Osbourne and D'Angelo.
