"The award ceremony was airing live from Los Angeles, hosted by Trevor Noah, who joked that the awards were coming to viewers "completely live" because "if we edited any of the show, the president would sue CBS for $16 billion." Last summer, US President Donald Trump won a $16 million (roughly 13.48 million) settlement from Paramount over a "60 Minutes" interview he claimed was edited for Kamala Harris' favor."
"Bad Bunny got the album of the year award for 'Debi Tirar Mas Fotos' 'Luther' by Kendrick Lamar with SZA won record of the year award Lamar also took home the best rap album award for 'GNX' Billie Eilish snatched the best song award for 'Wildflowers' Bad Bunny also accepted the best musica urbana album award for 'Debi Tirar Mas Fotos'"
"Several musicians donned "ICE out" pins during the ceremony, while others raised the issue of migration, either in solidarity or in protest against the Trump administration's anti-immigration drive. "As grateful as I feel, I honestly don't feel like I need to say anything but that no one is illegal on stolen land," Eilish, among the "ICE out" pin-wearers, said in her acceptance speech."
Artists at the 68th Grammy Awards publicly criticized the Trump administration's anti-migration stance and many used acceptance speeches to address the immigration crackdown. Trevor Noah hosted the live broadcast from Los Angeles and joked about legal action related to edited footage. Winners included Bad Bunny (album of the year and best musica urbana album), Kendrick Lamar with SZA ('Luther' — record of the year) and Kendrick's best rap album for 'GNX', Billie Eilish (best song for 'Wildflowers'), Olivia Dean (best new artist), Lady Gaga, and Jelly Roll. Several musicians wore 'ICE out' pins; Eilish stated that 'no one is illegal on stolen land.'
