The Grammy Awards have come and gone for another year, and the 2020 awards were one of the most interesting in the ceremony’s 62 years – I mean, the red carpet alone was certainly… a sight.
In terms of the awards themselves, this year was practically a one-horse race, with singer Billie Eilish absolutely cleaning up despite Lizzo receiving the most nominations.
The 18-year-old won four of the most coveted awards, including Best new artist, Song of the Year, Record of the Year and Album of the Year, with Eilish replacing Taylor Swift as the youngest person to ever win the award.
Here’s a complete list of all the winners and losers, so you have perfect water cooler small talk prepared for work tomorrow.
