Η σπουδαιότερη βραδιά της παγκόσμιας μουσικής: Οι νικητές της 61ης ετήσιας απονομής των βραβείων Grammy!

Την Κυριακή 10 Φλεβάρη πραγματοποιήθηκε η 61η απονομή των μουσικών βραβείων Grammy με πολλές εκπλήξεις, παρουσιάστρια την μοναδική Alicia Keys και ένα line-up -ως επί το πλείστον- γυναικείων εμφανίσεων.

Η Kacey Musgraves κέρδισε το Grammy για το Album της χρονιάς και η Cardi B έγινε η πρώτη γυναίκα νικήτρια στην κατηγορία Best Rap Album. 

Η πολυσυζητημένη έναρξη της βραδιάς με την παρουσιάστρια αλλά και τις Lady Gaga, Jada Pinkett Smith, Michelle Obama και Jennifer Lopez γέμισε έμπνευση και θετικά μηνύματα τους παρευρισκόμενους αλλά και τους τηλεθεατές. 

Πολυνίκης της βραδιάς ο Childish Gambino με τέσσερα συνολικά βραβεία, ενώ το “Shallow” των Lady Gaga και Bradley Cooper από την ταινία “A Star is Born” κέρδισε δύο Grammy.
