Grammys 2020: Check out the full list of winners

2020_Grammy_awards

When we all fall asleep, where do we go? If you’re Billie Eilish, laughing all the way home with six new shiny Grammys.

On Sunday (Jan. 26), the 62nd annual Grammy Awards took over the Staples Center in Los Angeles to celebrate some of music’s biggest names. Taking place mere hours after Kobe Bryant, his daughter, and others were killed in a helicopter crash, the annual awards show celebrated the NBA legend “in the house he helped build” as well as those top entertainers of 2019.

Eilish, who had a spectacular 2019 and 2020 is looking no different, went home with a total of six awards. The “Bad Guy” singer won all four major categories (Album of the Year, Record of the Year, Song of the Year, and Best New Artist) as well as Best Pop Vocal Album and Best Engineered Album.

Eilish is not only the first female to make a clean sweep of the major categories, but also the youngest to win Album of the Year. The honor was previously held by Taylor Swift, who was 20 years old when she won for Fearless.

Now, can we please break the “Big Four” curse for her sake?

The singer also took over the stage to showcase her vocals by performing her non-album track “when the party’s over.”

Keeping it in the family, Eilish’s brother and collaborator Finneas went home with the award for Producer of the Year.

Lizzo is “100% that bitch” coming in with a total of three awards, including Best Solo Pop Performance, Best Traditional R&B Performance, and Best Urban Contemporary Album. Like Eilish, she also took the stage to perform versions of “Cuz I Love You” and “Truth Hurts.”

Because giving awards is only a part of the annual event, the Grammys also gave us a slew of performances to get us through the three-hour show.

Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton showcased their love with “Nobody But You,” the Jonas Brothers ripped through their new single “What a Man Gotta Do” and “Only Human,” Usher paid tribute to the late and great Prince, Tyler, the Creator joined forces with Boyz II Men and Charlie Wilson for “Earfquake,” and Demi Lovato returned to the stage after her 2018 overdose with her new ballad “Anyone.”

All in all, not a completely horrible way to spend your Sunday night.

2014 JUNO Award Winners

junos

Last night Canada held their own version of every single music award that the United States has to offer, but with Canadian artists taking the lead in most of the award categories.

The Arcade Fire, who have had a fantastic year, went home with “Alternative Album of the Year” as well as “Album of the Year” for Reflektor and accepted their award via video from South America.

Tegan and Sara also came home winning after the stellar 2013 and beginning of 2014. The sister act went home with “Group Of The Year” for their catchy tune, “Closer.” The sister from Calgary accepted the award with a speech that thank everyone for letting “two queer kids from northeast Calgary” win the prize.

While most of the award show was all good, when Justin Bieber won his award for “Fan Choice” beating out Celine Dion, Drake and Michael Buble, the audience boo-ed him even though her wasn’t even present.

“Songwriter of the year” recipient Serena Ryan scolded the audience for booing the pop star though, some would wonder why she would do that, considering the way he has been acting as of lately and the way his fans are the bane of everyone’s existence.
