And I just, I feel really hopeful in this room and I feel like we just need to keep fighting and speaking up and protesting. And our voices really do matter and the people matter."
"The music stars came out to shine on Sunday night at the 68th Annual Grammy Awards, during which outrage over the deportation operations across the country spilled over. At the pre-show, artists like Kehlani lashed out at President Donald Trump and his policy. Gloria Estefan also spoke out against the crackdown. Host Trevor Noah opened the show with a big butt-related dig at Trump and Nikki Minaj."
Multiple performers used Grammy appearances to denounce recent immigration enforcement and urge activism. Artists including Kehlani, Gloria Estefan, Bad Bunny and Olivia Dean publicly criticized deportation policies and celebrated immigrant resilience. Host Trevor Noah made a political jest early in the show, and acceptance speeches prompted cheering crowds for remarks about immigrant grandparents and anti-ICE positions. Billie Eilish delivered an emotional acceptance that declared “No one is illegal on stolen land,” urged continued protesting, and emphasized the importance of speaking up and making voices heard.
