LOS ANGELES, CA — The 67th Annual Grammy Awards honored some of the music industry's most talented performers Sunday night. From the likes of Beyoncé and Sabrina Carpenter to Billie Eilish and Chappell Roan, the Crypto.com Arena was buzzing, but there was undoubtedly an underlying somberness throughout the evening after the recent devastation of the fires in Los Angeles.
Comedian Trevor Noah was back as host for his fifth consecutive year, while Janelle Monáe was on hand to present a tribute to the late producer Quincy Jones. The ceremony was filled with many memorable highlights, including a win for late President Jimmy Carter for best audiobook, narration and storytelling recording for "Last Sundays in Plains: A Centennial Celebration." Carter beat out the likes of Barbra Streisand, George Clinton, Dolly Parton and producer Guy Oldfield.

Another big moment from the ceremony included a win for actor Bradley Cooper for best compilation soundtrack for visual media, for the music from “Maestro,” the Leonard Bernstein biopic he directed and starred in, despite being notoriously snubbed by the Oscars last season.
The biggest highlight of the night without a doubt was Beyoncé's historic win for Album of the Year, the most prestigious award of the evening. After losing out on the honor four times over the years, Beyoncé finally was acknowledged in the category for her "Cowboy Carter" album. The hitmaker was joined on stage with her daughter Blue Ivy Carter to accept the honor, as an emotional crowd stood to their feet cheering. Beyoncé also took home a gold statue, presented by Taylor Swift, for Best Country Album. Sabrina Carpenter, Charlie XCX, Kendrick Lamar and Doechii were among some of the other big winners of the night, while heavily nominated favorites like Taylor Swift and Billie Eilish walked away empty-handed.
