The Grammys this year were of one a kind with all of the political moments, the dedications to other celebrities, and outfit choices.

The 59^th annual Grammy Award Ceremony was held on Feb. 12 this year. Hosted by James Corden, the Grammys were broadcasted live on CBS Network from the Staples Center in Los Angeles.

Singer-songwriter Adele won many Grammys this year for her single “Hello,” and her new album “25,”: Record of the Year, Song of the Year, Best Pop Vocal Album, Best Pop Solo Performance, and Album of the Year.

Beyonce started crying from the front row when she heard what Adele had to say in her acceptance speech for album of the year.

“I can’t possibly accept this award, I’m very humble and very grateful and gracious, but the artist of my life is Beyonce and this album for me, the Lemonade album, is just so monumental and beautiful,” Adele said (eonline.com).

This year’s Grammy ceremony was very timely for the political moment. Many celebrities’ performances, speeches, and outfits were for or against something political. Beyonce concluded her performance with a reference to women’s rights. Also, Singer Joy Villa, who is known for unusual attire on the red carpet, wore a red, white and blue dress that said, “Make America Great Again” on the front, and “Trump” on the back (nytimes.com).

Before introducing The Weeknd, Paris Jackson started by saying, “We could really use this kind of excitement at a pipeline protest,” Jackson said referencing the protests for construction of the Dakota Access Pipeline (nytimes.com).

New artist, Chance the Rapper, was awarded Best New Artist which was also the first award given that night. He was also awarded Best Rap Album for “Coloring Book,” the first streaming-only release. “I claim the victory in the name of the Lord,” Chance the Rapper said (nytimes.com).

This year’s Grammys were one of a kind in this ever-changing society. Fans will now have to wait a whole year to see what the next Grammys will bring.
