While the top players in the NFL were busy playing flag football in Vegas earlier today, it was Los Angeles that held it down for the musical side of entertainment as the 2023 Grammys came to town for their 65th annual ceremony.
With Beyoncé leading the way with nine nominations (ultimately, taking home three to help break the record for most Grammy wins – 32 – of all time) and Kendrick Lamar taking pole position for hip hop (winning Best Rap Album with Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers), there were plenty of memorable moments throughout the night.
