The 64th Grammy Awards were held on April 3rd in the US after a surge in COVID cases saw the show postponed from its original January 31st. It was the second year in a row that the Grammys have had to be postponed due to the pandemic.
Leading the nominations this year was Oscar-winner Jon Batiste, who snagged an impressive 11 nods.
Following Batiste, Justin Bieber, Doja Cat and H.E.R. have racked up eight nods each, followed by Billie Eilish and Olivia Rodrigo who each scored seven.
Eilish and Rodrigo were also two of the star-studded show’s main performers, along with BTS, Brandi Carlile, the Brothers Osborne, and Lil Nas X.
Comedian Trevor Noah served as the ceremony’s host once more, a factor that contributed to Kanye West being barred from performing at the show after the rapper used a racial slur on social media against the late-night host.
Read on for the list of winners from the 64th Grammy Awards.
