Bruno Mars was the big winner at the GRAMMY Awards 2018 last night (January 29), taking home all six awards that he was nominated for. His wins included Album of the Year for 24K Magic, Record of the Year for ’24K Magic’ and Song of the Year for ‘That’s What I Like’.
Another big winner during the evening was Kendrick Lamar, who took home five awards. However, with several artists winning multiple awards, it did mean that there were some big shocks during the evening.
Despite being the most nominated man and woman with eight and five nods each, both Jay Z and SZA left the awards ceremony empty handed. Another big snub came in the form of Luis Fonsi, Daddy Yankee and Justin Bieber’s ‘Despacito’, which failed to pick up any awards despite being arguably the biggest song of the past twelve months. There was also a lack of female winners, with Alessia Cara being the only female to win a major prize (Best New Artist).
If you missed all the GRAMMY action, here’s who won what on the night.
