With unprecedented and dangerous storm activity in and around Southern California, the music industry mustered all of its “the show must go on” spirit to pull off the 66th Grammy Awards, live from Los Angeles. And go on it did. And on. And on. But that’s award shows. Thankfully, a few interesting and fun moments — bolstered, of course, by a fast car and a swift bit of news — helped the three-and-a-half-hour program feel like less of a slog than some years in the past. There were also some attention-getting gasps, like when Jay-Z chided the Recording Academy (i.e., the body responsible for putting on the Grammys). Whether you missed the whole thing, pulled a Meryl by showing up a little late or just want to relive the action, here are some highlights: In case you didn’t hear the collective Swiftie gasp heard ‘round the world, Taylor Swift has a new album coming out in April. Oh, you were expecting an announcement about “Reputation (Taylor’s Version)”? How cute. No, Swift knows how to make a headline-making moment into a bigger headline-making moment, and that’s exactly what she did when she picked up her 13th Grammy — for best pop vocal album. Yes, 13 as in her favorite number. Which she made sure to point out in her speech.
The show formerly known as the SAG Awards is set to take place on Sunday, and it will be the last major stop for many nominees before the Oscars on March 15.
Connor Storrie’s meteoric rise — which has seen him go from the world of food service to an internet-dominating television series in just a few months — has left endless possibilities open for the Texas-born actor, whose name is surely being uttered in many a Hollywood casting room these days.
