Despite a pandemic, the Grammy Awards went full steam ahead this year to bring iconic award speeches, fashion moments and, most importantly, amazing musical performances.

With masks, social distancing and many guests opting to arrive virtually instead, it was an awards night like no other. The awards were hosted by Trevor Noah across different areas to keep in line with COVID-19 guidelines; the award presentations took place outside while the stage indoors hosted the performances.

BEYONCÉ MAKES GRAMMY AWARDS HISTORY, MEGAN THEE STALLION NAMED BEST NEW ARTIST — SEE THE LIST OF  WINNERS 

As OK! previously reported, Beyoncé made history when she won the 27th and 28th Grammys of her career while Megan Thee Stallion had a huge night as well. Stallion was named Best New Artist of The Year and took home Best Rap Song with Beyoncé... not to mention her huge shoutout from Billie Eilish at the end of the ceremony.

After a busy year filled with new releases and rerecording old favorites, Taylor Swift won Album of the Year for folklore, which made her the first woman to win that award three times. Meanwhile, Harry Styles won his first ever Grammy for "Watermelon Sugar."

Stallion also made jaws drop with Cardi B when they performed "WAP," but it wasn’t the only eye-catching performance of the night.
