Know who made it to this year’s Grammys

And the world stopped for a time to make way for the 58th Grammys and celebrate the talents of today’s music industry. Expect nothing but splendid performances that leaves the jaw of audiences drop for quite a time.

This year includes remembering one the industry’s icon, David Bowie in which Lady Gaga spectacularly took part.

Oh how the social media raved about Gaga’s take on some of Bowies songs. Seems like Mother Monster is really on trance of transitioning from an eclectic star that she is to a more mature and respectable icon that she has turned into.

Taylor Swift went home victorious as she was able to bag not only one but multiple awards, including the much coveted Album of the Year for her smash success in 1989. Swift even stressed that the award is more of a trophy and wants people, especially young women to use her triumph as an inspiration to always chase their goal no matter how many or how huge challenges are.

“As the first woman to win Album of the Year twice, I want to say to all the young women out there: There are going to be people along the way who will try to undercut your success or take credit for your accomplishments or your fame. But if you just focus on the work, and you don’t let those people sidetrack you, someday when you get where you are going, you will look around and you will know that it was you and the people who love you that put you there and that will be the greatest feeling in the world.” – The singer said as part of her acceptance speech.

Another big winner would be Meghan Trainor for Best New Artist. The singer behind ‘Like I’m Gonna Lose You’ accepted her award sobbing.

Quite an emotional moment indeed, Trainor still looked fabulous even in between tears. Thanks to her elegant Mike Costello custom made gown, her star shone even brighter that night.

The 22-year old singer vested other promising rookies including Tori Kelly, Sam Hunt, James Bay and Courtney Barnett.

Uptown Funk was awarded to be the Record of the Year.

There is no denying that this single is one of the strongest contenders on the said category because the smashing hit earned favorable results sales wise and even stayed on the hit charts for a lengthy period of time.

Aside from the said award, the duo also won Best Pop Duo/Group Performance.
