1. Lionel Richie loved his Grammy tribute, sung by John Legend, Demi Lovato, Meghan Trainor, Luke Bryan, and Tyrese.

2. Justin Bieber brought his little brother, Jaxon Bieber (aka Little Bieber), as his date. As cute as they are, I think most of us wish it was Selena’s cheek Justin was kissing…

3. Taylor Swift, once again, made us jealous of her squad. Ed Sheeran and Selena Gomez are just a few of her celebrity pals that she hung out with at the Grammys.

4. Again, Taylor and Selena show us what “friendship goals” really are. When Taylor went up to receive her award, Selena said, “That’s my best friend!” Don’t you wish you could say the same?

5. Sam Hunt and Carrie Underwood were getting awfully steamy on stage singing his song, Take Your Time, and her song, Heartbeat, together.

6. Lady Gaga preformed a legendary tribute to David Bowie, performing his songs Changes, Ziggy Stardust, Let’s Dance, Suffragette City, Heroes and more. Believe it or not, the funky outfits she wore were pretty normal, compared to her usual award show wardrobes. 

7. You know what they say… Real men wear pink. As if we didn’t already think Sam Hunt was man enough for us…

8. Taylor Swift gracefully retaliated to Kanye West’s song lyrics, “I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex. Why? I made that b**** famous,” in her acceptance speech for Best Album. She said, 

“As the first young woman to win Album of the Year at the Grammys twice, I want to say to all the young women out there: there are going to be people along the way who will try to undercut your success or take credit for your accomplishments or your fame.”

9. Kendrick Lamar was compared to Michael Jackson. Kendrick was nominated for eleven awards this year and took home five. However, in 1984, Michael was nominated for twelve awards and took home eight. 

10. Ariana Grande was caught trippin’!

11. Adele made everyone cry, as per usual.

12. Little Big Town made us crush on them as they sang their hit, Girl Crush.

 

13. Chrissy Teigen introduced her baby bump to some good music!

14. The stars of the Broadway show Hamilton appeared live at the Grammys via satellite from Richard Rodgers Theatre. 

15. Sofia Vergara even managed to look sexy as a taxi cab.

Can’t wait for next year!
