Grammyji v znamenju Kobeja Bryanta, velika zmagovalka Billie Eilish

Letošnjo podelitev grammyjev je znova vodila ameriška pevka Alicia Keys, ki se je pred nastopom poklonila pokojnemu 41-letnemu Kobeju Bryantu, ki velja za enega najboljših igralcev v zgodovini košarke. Kobe in njegova 13-letna hčerka Gianna Maria Onore Bryant, nadobudna mlada košarkarica, sta umrla v helikopterski nesreči v Calabasasu.

"Vsi čutimo neizmerno žalost. Pred nekaj urami je Los Angeles, Amerika in ves svet izgubil junaka. Dobesedno zlomljeni stojimo tu v hiši, ki jo je zgradil Kobe Bryant," je svoj govor začela Alicia, nato pa odpela pesem It's So Hard to Say Goodbye to Yesterday, ki jo v originalu izvaja zasedba Boys II Men. Fantje iz zasedbe pa so se ji pridružili tudi na odru. Na koncu je še dodala: ''Radi te imamo Kobe."

Tudi pevka Lizzo se je poklonila košarkarski legendi in je pred svojim nastopom dejala. "Nocoj (pojem) za Kobeja." Domov je odnesla zlati gramofon za najboljši solo performance, najboljši sodobni urbani album in najboljšo tradicionalno r'n'b' izvedbo.

Billie Eilish je najmlajša izvajalka in prva ženska, ki je prejela pet zlatih gramofonov, med njimi štiri glavne nagrade: najboljša novinka, najboljši album leta, pesem leta in singel leta.

Med nastopajočimi večera so bili še Gwen Stefani in Blake Shelton, Camila Cabello, Ariana Grande, Lizzo, Aerosmith in Billie Eilish, Lil Nas X, DJ Khaled in Run-DMC, Tyler, The Creator in Demi Lovato, ki je po dveh letih od predoziranja prvič stala na odru.
