(AP Photo/Julio Cortez, File) It’s music’s biggest night – but this year’s Grammy Awards took on a mournful tone as stars and fans paid tribute to basketball legend Kobe Bryant. The show opened with tributes to Bryant from Lizzo and Grammys host Alicia Keys. The Los Angeles Lakers legend died in a helicopter crash earlier Sunday. The Grammys are being held in the Staples Center, where the Lakers play their home games. Lizzo leads the nominations, with eight, including record, album and song of the year. Lil Nas X was nominated six times, as was Billie Eilish. While Eilish is currently 18, she was just 17 years old when the nominations were announced, making her the youngest artist in Grammys history to be nominated in all four major categories at the same time. These three artists, and many more, will be performing during the show. The Recording Academy will also honor slain rapper Nipsey Hussle, who posthumously won the Grammy for best rap performance. DJ Khaled, John Legend, Meek Mill and others will be paying tribute. Last year, former first lady Michelle Obama was a surprise guest at the Grammys. This year, she won the award for best spoken word album for the audio version of her memoir, “Becoming.” Record of the Year “Bad Guy” — Billie Eilish — Winner Album of the Year “When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go?” — Billie Eilish — Winner Best New Artist Billie Eilish was awarded “Best New Artist” at the 62nd annual Grammy Awards Alicia Keys: “We’re literally standing here, heartbroken, in the house that Kobe Bryant built” Host Alicia Keys also paid tribute to Kobe Bryant at the top of the award show, noting, “We’re literally standing here, heartbroken, in the house that Kobe Bryant built.” Boyz II Men then joined Keys onstage and sang “It’s So Hard to Say Goodbye to Yesterday.” “We’re literally standing here heartbroken in the house that Kobe Bryant built.” At the Staples Center, @aliciakeys opens the #GRAMMYs with a touching tribute. pic.twitter.com/wPY8VkReOb — CBS (@CBS) January 27, 2020 Nipsey Hussle remembered with all-star performance Slain rapper Nipsey Hussle, who won Best Rap Performance — and has two Grammy nominations including Best Rap/Sung Performance for “Higher” with DJ Khaled and John Legend — was remembered with an all-star tribute.
