That’s a wrap for music’s biggest night! The 62nd Annual Grammy Awards, held at L.A.’s Staples Center on Sunday, January 26, opened with a performance by Lizzo, and was followed by a performance of “It’s So Hard to Say Goodbye” by host Alicia Keys and Boyz II Men in memory of NBA superstar Kobe Bryant, who died earlier in the day. The ceremony also included sets by Aerosmith and Run-DMC, Billie Eilish, Bonnie Raitt, Lil Nas X, Ariana Grande, and others.
