So what are the highlights, lowlights and takeaways from "music's biggest night".

Kylie Minogue won her second Grammy, two decades after her first! 🎉

She won Best Pop Dance Recording for 'Padam, Padam' to join her Best Dance Recording award for 'Come Into My World.

Biggest Slip-Ups 🤪

Winning BIG to Arrest for Battery and Assault 🥺

Killer Mike won three Grammys and then got taken out of the ceremony in handcuffs??? Could it be for stealing another Grammy from Travis Scott? ;)

Wrongful Announcement 😳

When the Academy presented Best Rap Song, the wrong name was posted to X.

Those watching the premiere ceremony, which streamed live on the Academy’s YouTube channel, saw that “Scientists & Engineers” by Killer Mike actually won.

But the Recording Academy mistakenly posted to X that Nicki Minaj and Ice Spice‘s “Barbie World” from the Barbie soundtrack was the winner before quickly deleting the post.

Jay Z calling out the Grammys 🧐

During his speech on the night, Jay-Z took a stab at the Grammys, saying, "Some of you are going to go home tonight and feel like you've been robbed."

"Some of you may get robbed," he said. "Some of you don't belong in the category."

As the audience shook their head at that shade, Jay-Z said, "When I get nervous, I tell the truth."
