It was certainly not the celebration expected the one of last night’s Grammy Awards at the Staples Center in Los Angeles. In fact, only a few hours before the live broadcast, the tragic news of the death of who had made Staples a home: Kobe Bryant. Black Mamba, the basketball player loved all over the world, and his daughter Gianna Maria left an incredible void in everyone’s hearts, even those who had gone to the Staples last night to celebrate. Between tears and tributes, starting from Lizzo‘s initial performance dedicated, to the words spent several times by the host of the evening Alicia Keys, the Grammys 2020 also awarded this year the most deserving artists on the world music scene.
Apart from throat knot performances, Billie Eilish was undoubtedly the real revelation of the evening as far as the prizes were concerned. The young singer from Bad Guy has in fact taken home the main awards including album, recording, song and new artist of the year. Lizzo also won three prizes, Beyoncè for her musical film Homecoming, Ariana Grande with 7 Rings and many others. As for the dream looks spotted last night, we have a separate ranking! They win for TBS with their hands down for elegance, charm and style Ariana Grande and Dua Lipa. The first in an incredible grey Giambattista Valli dress, the second super chic in a milk-coloured sleep dress by Alexander Wang.
