Each subsequent show somehow manages to top the last—full of surprising moments, glamorous red carpet looks, dramatic beauty transformations, and jaw-dropping performances. Last year’s ceremony, which doubled as a fundraiser for California wildfire relief, saw Beyoncé finally win Album of the Year for Cowboy Carter, Carpenter perform a dazzling medley of “Espresso” and “Please Please Please,” Taylor Swift walk the carpet with Travis Kelce’s initial on her upper thigh, and Kendrick Lamar sweep the categories with five huge victories.
