Beyoncé wins more Grammys than any artist in history: 32 and ...

Beyoncé now is truly the queen – of the Grammys.

By winning the best electronic/dance album Grammy Award midway through Sunday's telecast, the singer brought her 22-year total to 32, topping the 31 statues claimed by legendary Hungarian conductor Georg Solti and making her the all-time awards champ of the Recording Industry Association of America. Solti died in 1997.

"Thank you so much. I'm trying not to be too emotional. I'm trying to just receive this night," a visibly emotional Beyoncé said, thanking in particular the LGBTQ community for their support of her music. "I'd like to thank the queer community for your love and for inventing the genre."

"I'd like to thank my Uncle Johnny, who is not here, but he's here in spirit," she added. "I'd like to thank my parents, my father, my mother for loving me and pushing me. I'd like to thank my beautiful husband, my beautiful three children who are at home watching."

She became the most-winning female singer in Grammy history in 2021.

Beyoncé won her first Grammy in 2001

Houston-raised Beyoncé Knowles won her first Grammy in 2001 as a member of Destiny's Child for the hit "Say My Name." She came into Sunday's awards show with 28 wins.

The nine 2023 Grammy nominations racked up by her album "Renaissance" included ones in the prestigious categories of album and record of the year, neither of which she had won previously in her illustrious career.

Beyoncé's total of 88 nominations tied her with her husband, rapper and producer Jay-Z, for the most Grammy nods of all time.

Jay-Z is tied with his longtime rival Kanye West as the most Grammy-awarded rapper in history. West had no nominations in 2023, and his controversial and racist comments have cost him business deals and industry alliances.

'It has been such a journey':Viola Davis joins EGOT club with first Grammy win

The record-setting Grammy wins by the woman whose fans call her Queen Bey came just days after the announcement of her Renaissance world tour, which kicks off in Europe May 10 and wraps up in New Orleans on Sept. 27.

Demand is expected to be brisk, and Live Nation is staggering sales by city in an effort to avoid the online computer snafus that plagued the sale of Taylor Swift concert tickets last year

Beyoncé's crowning achievement puts her at the head of an impressive class.

Behind her is music producer and songwriter Quincy Jones with 28 wins; bluegrass/country singer and musician Alison Krauss with 27; jazz composer and musician Chick Corea with 27; composer and conductor Pierre Boulez with 26; pianist and composer Vladimir Horowitz with 25; singer and songwriter Stevie Wonder with 25; and composer John Williams with 25, and Jay-Z at 24.

Solti's record seemed unbeatable for decades. The composer won his 31st and final Grammy in 1998. He died in 1997 at age 84. Beyoncé's record could well be extended. She is 41 and seems destined to be back at the awards show for years to come.

Yes, Beyoncé made history. But Grammy voters are still ignoring her ...

Beyoncé once again released one of the best albums of all time with last year's "Renaissance." And while she set a Grammys record, winning more lifetime trophies than any other performer, the Recording Academy is still ignoring her influence.

She took home four trophies Sunday in dance and R&B categories but was snubbed in the major races she most deserved to win. Despite a record total of 32 Grammys, Beyoncé has never won album of the year, a blasphemous omission considering her unrivaled discography. Even Adele felt the need to apologize when her album "25" beat Beyoncé's "Lemonade" at the 2017 Grammys. And it was especially disappointing given the influence of her latest album.

Beyoncé's losses this year in the top three categories – album, record and song of the year – are disappointing but not all that surprising in an industry that has made exclusion of Black artists feel inevitable.

"Renaissance," an unapologetic, genre-bending album that celebrated Black and queer joy while reconciling with grief and loss and honoring house and dance hall music, is trendsetting and defines today's cultural moment in a way that no other album of the year nominee has.

And:The best moments of the 2023 Grammy Awards, from Harry Styles' superfan to a stunned Lizzo

Harry Styles, who took home the trophy for album of the year, said in his acceptance speech that "there is no such thing as best." Lizzo added during hers for record of the year: "You clearly are the artist of our lives."

In some ways, the wide range of winners and nominees alike this year symbolizes the breadth of talent in the music industry, regardless of musical preference. But the repeated hesitancy to dole out big accolades and resort to giving mostly R&B, dance and rap awards to a woman who was repeatedly dubbed "the GOAT" during Sunday's show exemplifies a frustrating pattern: Grammy voters talking a big game about recognizing Black artists' impact but failing to back it up.

Beyoncé's 'Renaissance' album review:Unapologetic and raunchy as she beckons us to the dance floor

More:Brutally honest reviews of every 2023 Grammys performance, including Harry Styles, Sam Smith, Stevie Wonder

It's difficult to categorize the 2023 Grammy Awards as a diversity win or fail. Important moments for diverse artists included Kim Petras becoming what is believed to be the first openly transgender artist to win a Grammy, Dr. Dre's honor with his eponymous Global Impact Award, Lizzo championing joy and body positivity, and standout performances from Bad Bunny and by the pioneering stars of hip hop in a star-studded 50th anniversary tribute to the genre.

But Beyoncé has long been viewed as a barometer for the industry's treatment of Black artists, and her shutout in the major categories is an unwelcome reminder that many of the most influential artists are not getting their proper due.

Beyoncé deserved the 2023 album of the year award for a culture-defining piece of art. It's embarrassing that the industry still isn't properly recognizing her for it.

The Grammys are always good for innumerable indelible moments, partly because unlike acting-related awards shows – that's you Oscars, Golden Globes and Emmys – this telecast always features great artists doing what they do best on live television: rocking out.

The 65th annual awards, which were held Sunday inside Los Angeles' Crypto.com Arena, were no exception. The all-star event, which kicked off with a wild mambo fiesta courtesy of nominee Bad Bunny, featured standout musical acts, one-of-a-kind outfits and historic Grammy wins.

Beyoncé officially became the queen of the Grammys when her win for best dance/electronic album for "Renaissance" brought her all-time total to 32, one more than the late Hungarian classical conductor Georg Solti.

Winners! See which stars took home Grammy gold

Adele (finally!) meets Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson

Trevor Noah sidled up to a table where Adele was sitting and divulged the fact that one of the superstar's secret desires was to meet Dwayne Johnson. Noah said that while he wasn't sure where that person was, he did want to introduce her to someone called The Rock.

That's when the actor strode into view, hulking in a brown suit, and embraced a visibly shocked Adele. Later, The Rock was the one to present Adele with the Grammy for best pop solo performance for "Easy On Me."

"Get up here, best friend," The Rock called out as a soon-to-be teary Adele walked to the stage.

50 years of hip-hop gets an outrageous star-filled tribute

The crowd rose to their feet for a lengthy tribute celebrating 50 years since the sounds of hip-hop first emanated from Bronx house parties. With rap icons ranging from Jay-Z to Dr. Dre taking in the action from the audience, The Roots backed an all-star cast of performers that began with pioneer Grandmaster Flash doing "Flash to the Beat," followed by Run-DMC doing "King of Rock."

A torrent of rap talent followed, including DJ Jazzy Jeff (the other half of the duo that featured Will Smith), Salt-N-Pepa, Chuck D and Flavor Flav from Public Enemy, West Coast rap legend Ice-T and rapper-turned-beloved TV actress Queen Latifah.

Representing more recent standouts were Swizz Beatz and Lil Wayne. LL Cool J and Lil Uzi Vert rapped things up with "Just Wanna Rock" and gave a shout-out to how hip-hop has gone from largely an urban American sound to being fully integrated into culture worldwide.

Harry Styles superfan, 78, presents him with his album of the year Grammy

In what was undoubtedly a Grammy first, the vaunted album of the year award was announced by ... a 78-year-old grandmother from Sudbury, Ontario.

Harry Styles superfan Reina Fafantaisie was one of several people who were invited to share their feelings on why their favorite performer should win. At the end of the telecast, Noah called all the superfans to the stage. After he opened the envelope, he turned to Fafantaisie and told her, "You read it."

A shocked Fafantasie, Grammy in hand, was rushed by Styles, who then wrapped his outstretched hands around the stunned woman.

Lizzo gives props to Prince and Beyoncé in her acceptance speech for record of the year

A shook-up Lizzo bounded on the stage to accept record of the year for "About Damn Time" and thanked Prince, who embodied the musical essence of Minneapolis, the city where Lizzo broke out.

“When we lost Prince, I decided to dedicate my life to making positive music," she said. Being misunderstood made her want to "make the world a better place, so I had to be that change, to make the world a better place.”

At the end of her long speech, she sought out a standing Beyoncé in the crowd and, weeping, thanked the all-time Grammy champion for being her inspiration, starting back from when she cut class in fifth grade with her sister to see the icon in concert.

“Thank you so much. You clearly are the artist of our lives!” Lizzo said as a smiling Beyoncé nodded in acknowledgement.

Viola Davis gets her EGOT

Actress Viola Davis reached an epic milestone by winning a Grammy for best audio book of her own memoir, "Finding Me." That award allowed her to join the exclusive EGOT club, those artists who have won an Emmy, Grammy, Oscar and Tony. Davis won her Oscar in 2017 (for "Fences"), her Tonys in 2001 ("King Hedley II") and 2010 ("Fences"), and her Emmy in 2015 ("How to Get Away With Murder").

"I wrote this book to honor the 6-year-old Viola, to honor her life, her joy, her trauma, her everything," Davis said in her acceptance speech. "And it has been such a journey. I just EGOT!"

She's only the third Black woman and 18th person to EGOT, a group includes performers such as Jennifer Hudson, Rita Moreno, John Legend, Andrew Lloyd Webber, Robert Lopez, Whoopi Goldberg and Mike Nichols, to name a few.

Shania Twain wore a truly outrageous Grammy outfit

Country star Shania Twain, who presented the best country album Grammy to Willie Nelson for "A Beautiful Time," showed up on the red carpet wearing an outfit that defied description. But if we had to try, we'd call it a cross between a benevolent witch and a cartoon mushroom.

The glittery outfit was a sequined white bell-bottomed suit with big black spots, crowned by a oversized hat in the same material. Shania spiced it all up by sporting shockingly red hair.

Kim Petras becomes first trans performer to win best pop duo/group Grammy

German pop singer Kim Petras, who is transgender, and nonbinary British crooner Sam Smith made history together they took the stage to accept the award for best pop duo/group performance for the song “Unholy" off Smith's new album "Gloria."

It was the first time the award in this category was given to a trans performer, and follows three 1970 Grammy wins in classical music by Wendy Carlos.

Smith stepped aside and let Petras take the microphone to give an impassioned acceptance speech in which she described growing up in Germany with a mother who accepted that her child, born male, was a woman.

Everything you need to know about Grammys:

Grammys 2019: Kacey Musgraves wins four, including album of the ...

"I guess this year we really stepped up."

Dua Lipa's slight diss at the Grammy Awards turned into a running theme for music's biggest night on Sunday. Women ruled at the 61st annual Grammys, led by Kacey Musgraves' four wins, including album of the year and best country album for "Golden Hour." Lipa took home best new artist, Cardi B snagged best rap album for "Invasion of Privacy," Lady Gaga won three awards (including two for her "A Star Is Born" hit "Shallow") and also shared a stage with former first lady Michelle Obama, plus tributes honored the legacies of Dolly Parton and the late Aretha Franklin.

And Childish Gambino made some Grammy history, with "This Is America" becoming the first rap song to win both record and song of the year.

Ranked:Brutally honest reviews of every Grammy performance

Related:The Grammy winners list

Here's a minute-by-minute rundown of the festivities, hosted by Alicia Keys. Times are listed in EST.

11:36: Childish Gambino takes record of the year with "This Is America," and album of the year goes to Kacey Musgraves for "Golden Hour." "Life is pretty tumultuous for everyone right now," she says, "but art is thriving."

11:32: Aretha Franklin is the final legend honored in the "In memoriam" segment, and she gets a proper tribute with Andra Day, Fantasia and Yolanda Adams singing "(You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman."

11:18: Dua Lipa is still backstage when she wins for best new artist. "I guess this year we really stepped up," she says, dissing the Grammys a bit. (Recording Academy president Neil Portnow remarked last year that women needed to "step up" after they were underrepresented in the winners.) She also thanks the fans, "who allowed me to be the best version of myself."

11:13: St. Vincent plays some chunky riffs on "Masseduction" and then Dua Lipa joins her for "One Kiss."

11:01: Atlanta R&B duo Chloe x Halle sing a cover of "Where Is the Love" before presenting the best rap album Grammy to a tearful Cardi B for "Invasion of Privacy." "Woo, child," she says. "The nerves are so bad. Maybe I need to start smoking weed." She also thanked her baby daughter, Kulture, and husband Offset. "He said, 'You going to have this baby and we're going to make this album.' "

10:49: Brandi Carlile belts her song "The Joke." She, however, is no joke, getting much of the crowd off its feet.

10:43: H.E.R. takes best R&B album for her self-titled effort. "This is unbelievable. It's not even an album. It's an EP!" the 21-year-old singer says, thanking her parents "for embracing my talents and who I am."

10:33: Keys and Smokey Robinson riff on "Tracks of My Tears" to introduce a 60th-anniversary tribute to Motown. Jennifer Lopez rides an elevator to the stage to sing a medley including "Dancing in the Streets," "Please Mr. Postman," "Do You Love Me" and "ABC," followed by Robinson singing with her on "My Girl." Lopez and Keys team up for "Papa Was a Rolling Stone" and Lopez goes solo again for "Square Biz." Current Motown artist Ne-Yo closes it out with Lopez on "Another Star."

10:25: Travis Scott hits the stage to do "Stop Trying to be God" with Philip Bailey and James Blake and then raps in a cage for "No Bystanders."

10:10: Film fans get a treat when Lady Gaga rouses the crowd with her Oscar-nominated, Grammy-winning "A Star Is Born" tune "Shallow," turned here into a rock anthem.

9:56: Keys introduces a 75th-birthday montage for Diana Ross. "Through my life there has always been joy in music," Ross says before first singing "The Best Years of My Life" and then "Reach Out and Touch (Somebody's Hand)." Not so fast, though: Although Ross was shouting "Happy birthday to me!" she'll be 74 until March 26. (But, hey, why not celebrate early?)

9:50: Drake wins best rap song for "God's Plan." "It's like the first time in Grammy history where I am who I thought I was," he says, also telling young artists that they don't need a Grammy to be successful. "You've already won if you have people singing your songs word for word."

9:45: The countrified up-and-comers of Dan + Shay croon a stripped-down version of their tune "Tequila."

9:39: Playing dual pianos, Alicia Keys pulls off a great medley of songs she wishes she had written, including "Killing Me Softly," "Use Somebody" and "Unforgettable."

9:31: The Grammy for best country album goes to Kacey Musgraves' "Golden Hour." "I never dreamed this record would be met with such love, such warmth, such positivity," says the singer, whose award count rises to three for the night.

9:26: Cardi B looks like she just stepped out of a "Flash Gordon" reboot to sing "Money" and hit various poses on a piano, including a "Wakanda Forever" salute from "Black Panther."

9:16: H.E.R. wears sunglasses at night and rocks an electric guitar on a very cool "Hard Place." (Fun fact for the R&B singer's new fans: She got her big break competing on Radio Disney's "Next BIG Thing" when she was 12.)

8:57: Anna Kendrick introduces a big ol' Dolly Parton tribute, which begins with Kacey Musgraves and Katy Perry in matching red outfits to sing "Here You Come Again" before they're joined by Parton herself. Parton then brings out Miley Cyrus for a "Jolene" duet and Maren Morris makes it a trio with "After the Gold Rush." Little Big Town comes on for Parton's new tune "Red Shoes," and of course everybody gets involved for a rousing version of "9 to 5."

8:45: Post Malone performs his hits "Stay" and "Rockstar" before teaming up with the Red Hot Chili Peppers for "Dark Necessities."

8:42: Alicia Keys and John Mayer tell the story of how they each have half of the 2005 song of the year trophy. "This has to be the coolest joint custody agreement," he said. They present this year's Grammy to Childish Gambino's "This Is America," the first hip-hop song to take the honor. (Donald Glover, aka Gambino, isn't in the house to accept.)

8:30: Janelle Monae comes out, with definite Prince vibes, to sing "Make Me Feel." (Fun fact: She had been collaborating with the Purple One before his death in 2016.)

8:26: Already a multiple winner today, Kacey Musgraves performs her emotional ballad "Rainbow."

8:19: Lady Gaga returns to the stage to accept the first award of the main show, best pop duo/group performance with Bradley Cooper for "Shallow." "I wish Bradley was here with me right now," says Gaga, who mentions her "A Star Is Born" co-star/director is in London for the BAFTAs instead of L.A. for Grammys. She also noted how grateful she is for being a part of a movie that tackled mental-health issues. "A lot of artists deal with that and we've got to take care of each other."

8:13: Shawn Mendes is next, playing piano and singing his tune "In My Blood," and then snagging a guitar and making it a rocking group number with Miley Cyrus and a string section.

8:06: Host Alicia Keys arrives to officially kick off the night with a message of positivity: "Music is so powerful. ... I'm gonna take care of you tonight." She welcomes out some of her "sisters," including Lady Gaga, Michelle Obama, Jada Pinkett Smith and Jennifer Lopez, to honor what music means to them. Gaga says people called her weird but "music told me not to listen to them. Music took my ears, my voice and my soul." And Obama says from the Motown records she "wore out" on Chicago's South Side to the "we run the world" songs of the past decade, "music always helped me tell my story. Music helps us share ourselves, our dignities and sorrows, our hopes and joys. Music says all of it matters."

8:01: Arturo Sandoval's iconic trumpet begins the primetime show and a performance of Camila Cabello's hit "Havana." Clad in a yellow dress, Cabello saunters and sings on stage before being joined by Ricky Martin, J Balvin and a crowded stage of backup dancers.

At the early awards ceremony:

The Premiere Ceremony featured the first Grammy awards of the day in more than 70 categories.

6:56: Speaking backstage about his win for traditional R&B performance, PJ Morton, who also plays keyboards in Maroon 5, addressed the band’s controversial Super Bowl halftime show performance. “I’m actually happy we did it,” he said. “The reason we do this ... is to make people happy and to play music. And I think that’s the only time I’ll be able to play in front of 100 million people. ... I’m glad we did the work to make it to that point.”

6:45: The final two Premiere Ceremony awards of the night went to big hip-hop names who weren’t in attendance, with “This Is America” winning the best rap/sung collaboration, and Pharrell taking home the producer of the year, non-classical category.

6:43: Another tie arrived in the rap performance category, going to both “King’s Dead” by Kendrick Lamar, Jay Rock, Future and James Blake, and “Bubblin” by Anderson .Paak. “I don’t even know what to say,” Jay Rock said, accepting the award. “A big shout out to my little bro Kendrick (Lamar) for letting me be a part of the ('Black Panther') soundtrack.”

6:40: St. Vincent took the stage for her best rock song-winning track "Masseduction” with co-songwriter Jack Antonoff. “I think this is the first time I’ve given a thank-you speech, so here goes,” she said, before turning to Antonoff. “Jack, you look great.”

6:35: Chris Cornell, the Soundgarden frontman who died in 2017, was awarded a posthumous Grammy for best rock performance for “When Bad Does Good,” accepted by two of his children, Toni and Christopher.

6:33: Beyonce and Jay-Z, not in attendance for the premiere ceremony, won their first Grammys of the 2019 awards for best R&B performance for “Summer.”

6:31: While Ella Mai wasn’t in the audience, she won her first Grammy for “Boo’d Up” in the best R&B song category, along with co-songwriters Larrance Dopson, Joelle James and Dijon McFarlane.

6:28: The night’s first tie, Leon Bridges’ “Bet Ain’t Worth the Hand” and PJ Morton and Yebba’s “How Deep is Your Love” both won the awards for traditional R&B performance.

6:26 p.m.: H.E.R.’s bevy of nominations was one of the 2019 Grammys’ biggest surprises, and she received her first win for best R&B performance for her “Best Part” song with Daniel Caesar.

6:13 p.m.: Shaggy, one of the hosts of the premiere ceremony, took home the best reggae album award for his album with Sting, “44/876.” “It’s an honor to be nominated. ... but it’s better to win. I want to thank my partner in crime, Sting, you said we were gonna do it, so we did it. You made this feel like the best project I’ve ever worked on.

6:01: Rashida Jones spoke about her “Quincy” documentary backstage, talking about how making the film helped her understand father Quincy Jones' intense work ethic. “I did get a sense of his powers and see how he works himself to the edge and not kill himself and work another decade. ... Living with him and watching him work so hard was really difficult,” she said about growing up with her father. “But seeing him do that time and again (as part of making the film) was a relief.”

As for whether she ever thought she’d be winning a Grammy of her own: “Definitely not,” she said. “It’s so nice that I get to share this with my dad. ... This is his 28th Grammy and to have my first be his 28th, I’ll take it.”

5:54: Backstage, “This Is America” director Hiro Murai declined to break down what exactly he and his team were trying to communicate with the video’s meaning. “We’ve been avoiding getting too granular about the meaning of the video, but it was very much a collaborative effort,” he said. “(The song) felt like all the things, it’s not just about injustice or tragedy, but there’s also an irony in the track, and also some joy.”

5:37: Best pop vocal album, always a competitive Grammys race, goes to “Sweetener” by Ariana Grande, who very publicly stated earlier in the week that she would not be attending the awards after sparring with Grammys producer Ken Ehrlich.

5:34:Lady Gaga wins a non-"Star is Born” award for best pop solo performance, claiming the prize for “Joanne (Where Do You Think You’re Goin’?).”

5:32:Kacey Musgraves wins her second Grammy of the night for best country song for “Space Cowboy,” with co-songwriters Luke Laird and Shane McAnally taking the stage on her behalf. “Kacey is one of the greatest songwriters and artists of a generation, and to even sit in a room with her is an honor,” McAnally said.

5:30: First-time winners Dan + Shay win the country duo/group performance for “Tequila.” “That’s the beautiful thing about Nashville, about country music,” Dan Smyers told the crowd. “We’re all a family, we all root for each other.”

5:28: Kacey Musgraves, another artist nominated for multiple nominees tonight, wins the country solo performance category for “Butterflies,” though she isn’t in the auditorium to accept.

5:25: “Quincy,” the documentary about the life of Quincy Jones, takes home the best music film award, with Jones’ daughter Rashida Jones taking the stage with co-director Alan Hicks and producer Paula DuPré Pesmen. “No one’s career has had quite the same impact on culture decade after decade as my father has,” she said. “What underscores his unstoppable drive ... is his enormous heart and faith in humanity.

5:23: The best music video category goes to “This Is America,” with its artist Childish Gambino not in attendance to accept the award. “I accept this on behalf of Donald and everyone who worked on this production,” the video’s director Hiro Murai told the crowd.

5:17: Backstage, Fantastic Negrito talks about his win for best contemporary blues album, which he won for the second year in a row. “I love how white people get nervous, when they say, ‘Fantastic Neg…’” he joked. “It’s Spanish, it’s OK.”

5:11: Buddy Guy addressed why he thinks blues is an underserved genre, speaking to reporters backstage. “They’ve been treating blues like a stepchild for the last 20, 30 years,” he said. “Some of the lyrics (may have seemed) unfit until hip-hop came out, and now you can say whatever the hell you want. Blues lyrics are about good times and bad times, and other music says the same things.”

5:00: Former President Jimmy Carter wins the award for best spoken word album for “Faith – A Journey For All,” marking his third win in the category.

5:00: Backstage, “Greatest Showman” producer Alex Lacamoire says winning awards wasn’t on the team’s mind when they were building the soundtrack. “It’s not one of the things I think about when you’re making these things,” he said. “It’s just about making the best product possible.”

4:48: Buddy Guy accepts the award for best traditional blues album for “The Blues is Alive and Well” to a major round of applause. “I love this standing ovation,” he says. “I don’t get this too often! I thank everybody for supporting the blues.”

4:45: Maybe she just shouldn’t sit down. Brandi Carlile returns for a third straight win, for Americana album for “By the Way, I Forgive You,” taking the stage with songwriter Dave Cobb. “Dave, say something!” she exclaims.

Brandi Carlile:Dolly Parton crashed into Studio A

4:42: Brandi Carlile returns to the stage for the very next category, taking home the trophy for American roots song for “The Joke,” delivering a second, moving speech.

“Americana music is the island of the misfit toys. I am such a misfit. … I came out of the closet at 15 when I was in high school, and I can assure you I was never invited to any parties (or) school dances. To be embraced by this community has been the dance of a lifetime. Thank you for being my island.”

4:39: Brandi Carlile, the 2019 Grammys’ most-nominated female artist, wins her first Grammy of the day for American roots performance for “The Joke.” “It’s our first Grammy!” she tells the crowd. “This means so much to me. ... I’m violently shaking right now.”

4:30: “Shallow,” the multi-nominated song from “A Star Is Born,” wins its first award for best song written for visual media, awarded to songwriters Lady Gaga, Mark Ronson, Anthony Rossomando and Andrew Wyatt.

4:18: Tori Kelly wins her second Grammy of the afternoon for best gospel album for “Hiding Place,” thanking gospel musician Kirk Franklin for the win. “He took me under his wing and saw the passion I had for gospel and the Lord. ... Kirk, I love you so much,” she said. “I’m sharing this with you.”

4:13: The Roots’ Questlove, the premiere ceremony’s next presenter, awards the best gospel performance trophy to Kirk Franklin and Tori Kelly. “I dreamed about this since I was a kid; this is kind of insane,” Kelly tells the crowd. “I just love gospel music so much ... and I have to thank Jesus, thank you for everything.”

4:02: Beck wins his second award this year, for engineered album, non-classical, for “Colors.” As his production team takes the stage, one of the winning producers, Emily Lazar, announces that her win marks the first time a woman took home an award in this category.

3:57: Weird Al Yankovic wins the boxed or special limited edition package category for his “Squeeze Box” compilation, taking the stage and joking to the crowd, “I kind of have been playing the long game. I never really wanted to be a recording artist. (I’ve been doing this) for 46 years, so one day I could win a Grammy for being an art director.”

3:47: Beck claims the best alternative music album category, marking his sixth career Grammys win, his first since winning album of the year for his “Morning Phase” album at the 2015 awards.

3:46: “The Band’s Visit,” 2018’s Emmy-winning best musical, continues its storied run by taking home the prize for best musical theater album.

3:45: The first of the day’s awards, best comedy album, goes to “Equanimity and the Bird Revelation” by Dave Chappelle, who is not in attendance to accept his prize.

3:40: The Grammys’ Premiere Ceremony pre-awards kicked off with Recording Academy chair John Poppo introducing Shaggy, the pre-awards host, who is also nominated in the best reggae album category. Amusingly, instead of just rattling off the rules of the pre-show – like keeping speeches to 45 seconds or less – Shaggy chose to sing them instead over a reggae beat, reminding the afternoon’s future winners, “Don’t sit like you ain’t got a clue / Get up here and collect what’s due.”

US downs suspected Chinese spy balloon off South Carolina coast

Four days after entering U.S. territory, a suspected Chinese spy balloon was shot down off the South Carolina coast Saturday afternoon, Pentagon officials announced. The balloon, which carried a large payload of spy gear according to U.S. officials, had soared over several strategic sites, including nuclear missile silos, and became the latest flashpoint in tensions between Washington and Beijing. An F-22 warplane struck the balloon with a missile about 6 nautical miles off the coast in U.S. territorial waters, according to Pentagon officials. Recovery efforts immediately began. Chinese officials, who claim the balloon was collecting weather data and had been blown off course, said that the country has the right to "take further actions" against the U.S. for taking down the balloon.

Beyoncé breaks Grammys all-time wins record

Beyoncé now is truly the queen – of the Grammys. By winning the best electronic/dance album Grammy midway through Sunday's telecast, the singer brought her 22-year total to 32, topping the 31 statues claimed by legendary Hungarian conductor Georg Solti and making her the all-time awards champ of the Recording Industry Association of America. Solti died in 1997. More history was made earlier in the evening when Sam Smith and Kim Petras won the award for best pop duo/group performance for their hit, "Unholy." With the win, Petras became the first transgender woman to win in the category. For more on Sunday's Grammys, see the latest winners and highlights here.

New Hampshire may have seen coldest recorded wind chill in US history

Bitter cold temperatures hit record-breaking lows in the Northeast over the weekend. The wind chill — what the temperature feels like — on the summit of Mount Washington, New Hampshire, dropped to minus 108 F on Friday. That's likely the lowest wind chill ever recorded in the United States since meteorologists began calculating them, said climate scientist Brian Brettschneider. The temperature on Mount Washington dropped as low as minus 46 degrees F on Friday night, with 97 mph winds, the National Weather Service said. The Arctic blast has been blamed for at least one death, when high winds brought down a tree branch that crushed a vehicle in Massachusetts and killed an infant riding inside. The region saw a dramatic warmup Sunday, however, with highs in the 30s and 40s.

Ex-Pakistan President Musharraf, key supporter of US after 9/11, dies

Pervez Musharraf, the former president of Pakistan who provided crucial support to the U.S.-led "war on terror" following the 9/11 attacks, has died at 79, the Pakistan military announced Sunday. No cause of death was revealed, but Musharraf had been battling a rare disease and was being treated at a hospital in Dubai, Pakistani media reported. Musharraf seized power in 1999 from then-prime minister Nawaz Sharif in a bloodless coup, and served as president of the country until 2008. He was a close ally of the U.S. and President George W. Bush after the 9/11 attacks, but his partnership with Washington during its military intervention in neighboring Afghanistan drew mixed reviews at home.

Democrats shake up 2024 primary calendar

Democrats on Saturday approved a plan to reorder their 2024 presidential primary calendar in an effort to amplify diverse voices earlier in the presidential selection process. Overruling objections from two states that have traditionally held the first contests, Iowa and New Hampshire, the national party greenlit a schedule that moves South Carolina to the front of the line. The revamped calendar elevates Nevada to the second position alongside New Hampshire and welcomes Georgia and Michigan to the early primary window for the first time.

Vikings look to steady themselves for playoffs against Bears

AP

CHICAGO (AP) — The Minnesota Vikings come into the regular-season finale with the NFC North championship secured, a home game in the playoffs guaranteed and a bitter taste in their mouths.

A lopsided loss last week left them staggering. They hope to steady themselves before the playoffs start.

The Vikings will try to do just that when they visit the Chicago Bears to close out the regular season on Sunday.

“Momentum is real, and it’s really big in the playoffs," defensive tackle Harrison Phillips said.

The Vikings (12-4) won't have to contend with Justin Fields, after Bears coach Matt Eberflus announced the electrifying quarterback will miss the final game because of a strained hip and Nathan Peterman will start in his place. Chicago (3-13) comes in with nine straight losses after getting blown out at Detroit last week and a chance to become the first team in franchise history to drop 14 games in a season.

This would seem like a good opportunity for the Vikings to find their footing coming off a 41-17 beatdown at Green Bay.

The Vikings are all but guaranteed the No. 3 seed in the NFC. They can't finish ahead of the NFC East champion, be it Philadelphia or Dallas. They would need struggling Arizona to beat San Francisco to have a shot at the second seed.

“I think to get that bad taste out of our mouth is something that would be really good to do," said Kirk Cousins, who threw three interceptions and lost a fumble last week. "No one’s just going to let that happen. We got to go earn it and play well enough to do that.”

SHOT AT TOP SPOT

The Bears assured themselves a top-four draft pick and have a shot at the No. 1 selection. The only team with a worse record is Houston (2-13-1).

“When you look at the wins and losses and that sort of thing, that’s disappointing obviously,” Eberflus said. “But you see the progress. To me, it’s about foundational floor. You see that."

LINE SHUFFLE

The Vikings suffered a big blow last week when center Austin Schlottman, who already was filling in for the injured Garrett Bradbury, broke his lower leg in the first quarter. A few minutes later, right tackle Brian O’Neill hurt his calf and partially tore his Achilles. Bradbury has missed four straight games and primary backup tackle Blake Brandel is on injured reserve with a torn MCL in his knee. Bradbury and Brandel are on track to return for the playoffs, but for now against the Bears, all signs point to Chris Reed holding down the fort at center and Oli Udoh subbing at right tackle.

O’Neill, who is in his fifth year, had never before missed a game due to injury.

“We’ve had a lot of very, very strong outings and high moments, but even during some of the moments where we weren’t at our best, Brian was still so consistent for us in his role,” coach Kevin O’Connell said. “I just think it’s going to be a hard thing to replace.”

FOR STARTERS

Peterman shrugged off the idea the Bears are jockeying for draft positioning by holding out Fields.

“I’m very focused on going out there, playing great and winning a football game," he said. "That’s all you can do every time you go out there. I’m excited. Trying not to listen to the outside noise too much.”

Peterman is set to make his fifth career start and first since 2018. He almost got the call in Week 12 at the New York Jets.

Fields was sidelined because of a separated shoulder. Backup Trevor Siemian suffered an oblique injury in warmups, and the Bears announced Peterman would start in his place, only to reverse course. Siemian played through the injury, which required season-ending surgery.

FIRMER FOOTING

The Vikings hosted the Bears in the regular-season finale in five of the last six years under the translucent U.S. Bank Stadium roof. Now the venue is reversed, with the Vikings playing in Chicago to close the regular season for the first time since 1971 and after November for only the second time since 2009. The Vikings ought to be prepared for the often-rough Soldier Field playing surface; they had frequent trouble with traction at Green Bay’s Lambeau Field last week.

O’Connell said after that game the staff “strongly recommended” that players use 7-stud cleats for maximum grip, but some of them – including wide receiver Justin Jefferson – didn’t switch until they started slipping during the game.

“Hopefully it’s a learning lesson for all of us that we don’t need to go through some of that early to rectify the problem,” O’Connell said.

NO RECORD

Fields finished his second season with 1,143 yards rushing, 63 shy of the record of 1,206 set by Baltimore’s Lamar Jackson in 2019 during his MVP season. He is sixth overall in rushing and is averaging a league-leading 7.1 yards per carry.

Beach Boys, Beatles, Beyoncé top Rolling Stone's new 500 Greatest ...

Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Albums of All Time list has been revamped.

The pop culture magazine's original list was published in 2003 and despite the fact that almost two decades have passed, the list remains wildly popular and polarizing, with nearly 63 million readers last year alone, according to Rolling Stone.

But times have changed, the music industry has evolved and some of today's emerging musicians were just children in 2003. (Grammy winner Billie Eilish was only 2.) So it was time for a complete overhaul.

"The goal wasn't to update the list but blow it up and re-create it from scratch, reflecting both the canon of pop music and the ever-shifting currents of taste," Rolling Stone editor Jason Fine wrote Tuesday.

Rolling Stone tallied more than 300 ballots from music industry professionals and musicians, including votes from Beyoncé (on the list at No. 32 with "Lemonade" and No. 81 with "Beyoncé") and Taylor Swift, (No. 99 with "Red and No. 393 with "1989").

The end result is a mix of classics (The Notorious B.I.G.'s "Ready to Die" at No. 22, Aretha Franklin's "I Never Loved a Man the Way I Love You" at No. 13 and The Rolling Stones' "Exile on Main Street" at No. 14.) and music from the 21st century (Kendrick Lamar's "To Pimp a Butterfly" at No. 19, Amy Winehouse's "Back to Black" at No. 33 and Eilish's "When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go?" at No. 397).

The new list of 500 Greatest Albums includes 154 new entries and 86 albums from the 21st century. It also reflects more inclusion and diverse genres, with "three times as many rap albums represented on the new list as on the original."

Here are the Top 10 Greatest Albums of All Time, according to Rolling Stone:

10. Lauryn Hill, 'The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill'

Released on Aug. 25, 1998, “Miseducation” is Hill’s first and only solo studio album and was a defining release of its era in multiple ways. It was the album that made Hill a star, breaking the record for first-week sales by a female artist with 400,000-plus copies, and earning Hill 10 Grammy nominations and five wins, the most for a female artist at that time.

9. Bob Dylan, 'Blood on the Tracks'

Dylan's true masterpiece of an album, "Blood on the Tracks," was released on Jan. 20, 1975. It was recorded at a pivotal time in Dylan's personal life (romantic entanglements and divorce) and career (a "comeback" record of sorts).

8. Prince and the Revolution, 'Purple Rain'

Released on June 25, 1984, "Purple Rain" was Prince's first album to reach No. 1 on the Billboard 200 and spent 24 consecutive weeks on top. Hit singles include "When Doves Cry," "Let's Go Crazy," "Purple Rain" and "I Would Die 4 U."

7. Fleetwood Mac, 'Rumours'

Released on Feb. 4, 1977, the band's trailblazing "Rumours" sold 40 million copies worldwide, held Billboard's No. 1 spot for 31 weeks and spawned top 10 hits "Dreams," "Don't Stop," "Go Your Own Way" and "You Make Loving Fun."

"Thank you, @rollingstone, for naming 'Rumours' as one of the 500 Greatest Albums of All Time!" the rock band tweeted in response.

6. Nirvana, 'Nevermind'

Released on Sept. 24, 1991, "Nevermind" was more than just another rock album. It gave a voice to a generation looking to be heard, hammering the final nail into hair metal’s coffin while placing alternative rock at the forefront of popular music.

5. The Beatles, 'Abbey Road'

The most influential band of the 1960s – and all of rock ‘n’ roll, many say – released their swan song in 1969. Made over the course of sporadic studio sessions in spring and summer 1969 that gathered the group together amid their slow dissolve, “Abbey Road” was released just days after the meeting of the band members where John Lennon informed them of his plans to split.

It was released on Sept. 26, 1969.

4. Stevie Wonder, 'Songs in the Key of Life'

Released on Sept. 28, 1976, "Songs" is one of the most influential albums released in an especially fruitful time for Wonder in particular and R&B in general. It includes the enduring hits "Sir Duke," "I Wish" and "Isn't She Lovely?" and additional classics such as "Knocks Me Off My Feet," "Black Man" and "Pastime Paradise."

3. Joni Mitchell, 'Blue'

Released on June 22, 1971, "Blue" features "All I Want," "My Old Man," "Little Green," and "Carey."

2. The Beach Boys, 'Pet Sounds'

Released on May 16, 1966, "Pet Sounds" features "Sloop John B," "Wouldn't It Be Nice," "God Only Knows" and "Caroline, No."

1. Marvin Gaye, 'What's Going On'

“What’s Going On,” a poignant musical masterpiece crafted in a season of unease, persists as a timely backdrop to another heated summer, half a century later, when the world feels upside down.

Marvin Gaye's 'What's Going On'is still relevant and revealing, 50 years later

Racial tensions, police controversy, environmental anxieties, a globe on edge – they were the topics on the front burner when Gaye rebooted his musical career and took control of his creative vision inside Motown.

The song with the silky, layered vocals and an emphatic protest message was topical when Gaye cut it in 1970. It was still relevant when a newly freed Nelson Mandela recited its lyrics for a packed Tiger Stadium in 1990. And it resonates in 2020, in the wake of George Floyd’s killing by police — the 8 minutes and 46 seconds stark enough to slice their way into a pandemic lockdown.

"What's Going On" was No. 6 on Rolling Stone's 2003 list. That year's No. 1, The Beatles' "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band," dropped to No. 24 on the new list.
