Grammys 2025 recap: Best moments from music's biggest night

Anthony Kiedis and Chad Smith of the Red Hot Chili Peppers presented the Grammy Award for best pop vocal album to Sabrina Carpenter for "Short n' Sweet."

While accepting the award, Carpenter said, "I really was not expecting this, and all those nominees that were just on the screen are some of my favorite artists in the world, and I can't believe I'm nominated against them or even in this room."

"I feel so lucky to be able to come together and do something so special and beautiful and celebrate music," she added. "I want to thank all the fans that let my music be heard by the Recording Academy. I want to thank my mom for driving me to every voice lesson."

She continued, "'Short n' Sweet' means the world -- thank you to the producers and writers who made the album."

Other nominees in the category included "HIT ME HARD AND SOFT" by Billie Eilish, "eternal sunshine" by Ariana Grande, "The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess" by Chappell Roan and "THE TORTURED POETS DEPARTMENT" by Taylor Swift.

Doechii won the Grammy for best rap album for "Alligator Bites Never Heal."

"Three women have won: Lauryn Hill, Cardi B and Doechii," she said addressing the history of the category.

"I dedicated myself to sobriety, and God told me that I would be rewarded, and that he would show me just how good it can get," she continued, thanking God, her mother and her hometown, Tampa, Florida.

She added, "I know that there is some Black girl out there, so many Black women out there that are watching me right now, and I want to tell you: You can do it. Anything is possible. Anything is possible. Don't allow anybody to project any stereotypes on you that tell you that you can't be here, that tell you that you're too dark or that you are not smart enough or that you're too dramatic, you are too loud. You are exactly who you need to be ... right where you are. I am a testimony."

Sabrina Carpenter took to the stage at the Grammys to deliver a bubbly and quirky mashup performance of her mega-hit songs "Espresso" and "Please, Please, Please."

The singer earned six nominations this year, including all four of the top categories: best new artist; song of the year for "Please, Please, Please"; record of the year for "Espresso"; and album of the year for "Short n' Sweet."

Billie Eilish hit the Grammys stage and performed her viral song "Birds of a Feather" with her brother Finneas and a band.

Her performance included a stunning backdrop, which featured sweet throwback photos of her and Finneas.

She ended her performance by saying, "I love you LA."
