The 62nd Annual Grammy Awards took place on Sunday night (Jan. 26). The event was tinged with sadness as the passing of Kobe Bryant in a helicopter crash was announced just a few hours before airtime. This loss weighed down even harder on those in attendance, as they sat in the Staples Center, which the evening’s host, Alicia Keys, aptly described as the “house that Kobe built”. However, everyone tried to transpose their sadness into a celebration of life and one of its greatest joys: music. 

Billie Eilish had a record-breaking night, being the youngest artist to win in all four of the Grammy’s major categories. Tyler, The Creator, J. Cole and 21 Savage all took home their first prizes from the Recording Academy. YG sidestepped a questionable arrest on Friday to partake in a tribute to the late Nipsey Hussle alongside Meek Mill, Roddy Ricch, John Legend, Kirk Franklin and DJ Khaled. Overall, the affair was filled with highlights, another of which were the outfits that the stars rocked on the red carpet. Here’s a roundup of some of our favorite looks.

It's an interesting year for Beyoncé at the Grammys. We're used to her being nominated for music that belongs to her solo discography, but at the 62nd Annual Grammy Awards, she is being recognized for her participation in the world of motion pictures. Bey was tied to two cinematic projects last year, Homecoming and The Lion King. Homecoming, a Netflix exclusive documenting her monumental Coachella performance in 2018, earned a nomination for Best Music Film, while Bey's other three nominations are for her Lion King work. 

The pre-show Grammy awards have begun to be doled out and Beyoncé scored a win in the Best Music Film category. Homecoming beat out David Crosby's Remember My Name, Stanley Nelson's Miles Davis: Birth of the Cool, Morgan Neville's Shangri-La and Thom Yorke/Paul Thomas Anderson's Anima. Other contributors to Homecoming being recognized through this win include Bey's co-director, Ed Burke, and producers, Steve Pamon and Erinn Williams. It's great to see Homecoming honoured by the Grammys, as it was shut out of all six of the Emmy categories in which it was nominated.
