Music’s biggest night is here.
The 66th GRAMMY Awards happened today (February 5 PH Time) at Los Angeles’ Crypto.com Arena, recognizing and honoring the biggest names in music. Before the official ceremony commenced, the annual awards shows kicked off the pre-show festivities with unveiling a majority of the night’s winners.

Billie Eilish took home the coveted Song of the Year award for her track “What Was I Made For?” from the soundtrack of Barbie, as well as Best Song Written For Visual Media. “I just wanna say everybody in this category…that was a crazy list of incredible people, incredible music. I feel crazy right now. Thank you to the members of the Recording Academy, thank you to my brother who’s the best person in the world, thank you to Greta Gerwig for making the best movie of the year,” said Eilish during her acceptance speech.
While Miley Cyrus was awarded Record of the Year for “Flowers”, as well as Best Pop Performance. “”Thank you all so much. This award is amazing but I really hope that it doesn’t change anything, because my life was beautiful yesterday. Not everyone in the world will get a Grammy, but everyone is spectacular,” said Cyrus, accepting Record of the Year.
