The 65th Grammy Awards ended in chaos as Harry Styles won the top accolade.
The British pop artist beat Beyonce, who was expected to win Album of the Year for Renaissance.
Accepting the Album of the Year award, Styles said that “there was no such thing as best” and that he had been inspired by all the other artists in the category.
It didn’t go unnoticed that Beyoncé lost to the British artists after losing in 2017 to Adele for her album 25. One audience member shouted that “Beyoncé should’ve won,” but the singer made history by becoming the most Grammy-winning of all time with 32 wins.

Bad Bunny Kicks Off Grammy Awards With Lively Puerto Rico Tribute
The reggaeton/Latin trap sensation Bad Bunny is the first artist to perform in Spanish and be nominated for album of the year.
He performed an upbeat set that included songs from his number-one album “Un Verano Sin Ti” to kick off this year’s Grammy awards.
The artist’s medley began with “El Apagón” (“The Blackout”), a passionate love letter to his native Puerto Rico. The lyrics of the song make reference to the ongoing problems with the island’s electricity grid left behind by Hurricane Maria.
Bunny then launched into a party song with merengue and mambo influences called “Después de la Playa,” also performed by El Conejo Malo.
What did you think of Bad Bunny’s Grammy performance? Do you think he was the right artist to open the show?
Is a tour announcement coming from The Jonas Brothers?
The trio stopped by the Live Nation office on Thursday in Beverly Hills, which instantly sparked questions about a possible tour announcement in the near future.
The group has already confirmed that their new album, simply titled ‘The Album’, is set to arrive on May 5.
Nick teased plans to hit the road on tour later this year during a recent interview, so it’s possible that their latest outing was to nail down a final plan for the upcoming performances.
Is Rihanna about to drop a surprise album? Some people think so.
As the beauty mogul-slash-musician preps for her anticipated Super Bowl LVII performance, there’s a slight chance we could see Rihanna’s long-gestating album finally be released.
Sources have funny feeling that Rihanna’s new album — presuming it’s still called R9 — will release as soon as she steps off the stage.
The singer herself tried to squash the notion a few months back saying, “That’s not true. Super Bowl is one thing. New music is another thing. Do you hear that, fans?”
Paramount+ has renewed 1923 for a second season, and Harrison Ford recently shared more about the series.
Ford said about understanding the family dynamics of this prequel series versus the other series, “I’ve got a working knowledge of it — I could be wrong, but I think I’ve got it pretty clear.”
He continued about how difficult these types of series can be for actors, “They don’t talk about it, they complain about it. I’m down with it, but it’s sometimes bloody cold.”
He added, “The reality of the thing is amazing, I mean, we’re out there with 1200 sheep, 800 head of cattle. … They’re really doing it. I mean, when we’re out there with the cows, we’re herding the cows, you know? The actors and the real cowboys.”
He also mentioned that he would be joining season 2 of 1923 and is excited about the season renewal.
Ford continued about why he joined the new Indiana Jonesmovie that is currently in the works and said, “I always wanted to do it. I wanted to do the rest of the story to see the end of his career.”
