because of the craziness in the world um
the craziness earlier this month you you

people escape and so tonight is just a
reminder for us to keep going because
the world needs music you know we heard
a really unique term earlier saying
musicians are second responders you have
First Responders on the Fire but then SE
responders are the artists that really
give hope and inspiration to people and
you did that earlier today when you
performed at the premiere yes that was
amazing I'm just I'm still like when
they called my name after I was off on

somebody inspired somebody encouraged

I'll we it proudly and that's what this
night is about right inspiration yes
ma'am help that music is healing how
important is it to you that the Grammys
continued on with this event well you
know it was uh uh a balance of here and
there but I'm glad that they still had
it but also to respect what has happened
in here in LA with those who've lost
much in their lives and for us to um be
here to support them and Inspire them to
come get back on their feet Ricky thank

ready the opportunity ladies thank you
of course we're going to keep our
interviews rolling we have Jimmy Jam
joining us who is a presenter tonight no
stranger to the gramys how's it feel to
be back feels wonderful feels great to
have the music Community together again
to celebrate all the wonderful music
that's come out and as I said in my
remarks at the beginning I feel like you
know music the people that make music
are like Angels on the Earth right to
keep us all sane and I just told
everybody they need to uh grow their
wings a little bigger and flap a little
bit harder with all of the things from
the fires and just all the things that
are happening music is a thing that's
going to raise awareness raise Spirits
raise money and that's what we're all
here to do tonight you know it's no uh
exaggeration to say you are a legend in
the music industry so many people look
up to you what words do you have for
people who need just a little bit more
inspiration to get through this time
well I'm fortunate cuz I get to do what
I love to do and so they say you if you
get to do what you love that you never
work a day in your life but my advice to
people is always to be prepared and it
sounds very cliche but the whole idea of
preparing is people when they say I'm
waiting for something to happen I'm
waiting for my break I'm waiting to what
substitute the word waiting with the
word preparing I'm preparing for my
break I'm preparing for somebody to
discover me and then when that moment
comes you seize it and you're there to
do it and you say I'm ready you say I'm
ready and I'm prepared changes to I'm
ready that's right you're ready to go
yeah how are you going to celebrate
tonight with all your friends well I
have my family with me which is always
wonderful we kind of do it as a Grammy
tradition and we're just going to enjoy
the show it's uh I've seen I've been at
the rehearsal so I've seen what the show
is I think it's going to be the most
amazing show ever you want to give us
one little secret about the show what a
cheese well I will say I don't know what
I'm supposed to say but I will say that
I
believe that in the first year it'll be
the first year that you will see every
single Best New Artist on the show and I
think it's incredible because that
category to me is probably the most
incredible on the show cuz it shows not
not only the greatness of Music past but
the greatness of Music in the future and
so that's what I'm looking forward to
well thank you for letting us in on a
little sneak peek of what to expect here
tonight at the happen that could happen
could maybe possibly allegedly off the
Record might happen but you hear heard
it here first from Jimmy Jam thank you
so much have fun tonight always great to
see you have a great night with your
family all right we have Troy Savon

that um in my four years of living here
in La um this community come together
when there's tragedy that affects all of
us and some more than others uh I it's
just so beautiful to see that the
inherent goodness of people comes out
and we all come together and unify and I
hate that it takes a tragedy sometimes
but I'm I'm so grateful to be a part of
this community and and see people come
together and devote their time and their
supplies and their money and whatever
they have you know and I'm just so
grateful and my prayers are just prayers
are working baby you know what I mean
they always will so I I'm I'm so
grateful to be here it's going to be
such a beautiful night to help support
our community it also is going to be a
beautiful night celebrating the
achievements that people like yourself

Grammys you are correct um yeah no it's
it's very very very important on every
day but I think on a day like today when
there's so much energy and so much
pressure and things just yeah friends
and family both go a long way and and um
you know all about that as well like
having having having your other heart
fear as well it's just like you need
those grounding rocks you know on days
like today takes the nerves off maybe a
little bit yeah yeah well you get to be
here with a buddy is there anybody that
you're really excited to see on the
carpet or performing
tonight I mean Rey for me is like just
one of the best she's one of the
greatest she's so positive and she's so
courageous and such a lovely character
and um so I'm I'm hoping to have a
glimpse of her for sure T I'm excited to
see Teddy swims oh Teddy I've been
loving him Ray as well she's amazing um
I mean like Legend baby face is like
right here so that's cool we're talking
about you of course we
are yeah it's awesome there's so many
amazing people here um we're just
starting too so I'm I'm getting giddy
already now on a night like tonight I
imagine obviously you're celebrating and
you are you know enjoying the night but
is there also a worker be in you that's
like who can I go talk to who can I go
network with who how can I make
something happen here or are you just
letting it all just be organic tonight
you can't engineer the Grammys and and
being social here I I can think of
moments in the last few years where I
have bumped into a hero of mine and then
we've ended up working together off the
back of it but um you just have to kind
of ride the wave and see we end up you
know I mean didn't that literally happen
with us we met at the grammy but we
weren't like we weren't obviously trying
to network but we happened to meet here
yeah and then we're like oh let's do a
song and here we are now if that's not a
full circle moment I don't know what is
everybody Jacob Tor thank you so much we
appreciate it have fun tonight so much
fun
you we are in a celebratory mood right
now because we are here with Grammy
winner Eric Hudson how are you feeling
I'm feeling really really good today we
just won uh for Chris Brown's R&B album
of the year so it feels really really
good when you heard the win and you knew
it was you what was going through your
mind the first thing I did was call my
dad and my mom and um and my mom was
crying on the phone I was in the car
trying to get to the red carpet and it
was just a special moment um it's a
blessing and this is number five for you
it's number five does it get old does it
still feel new every time it feels new
every time it doesn't it doesn't get old
it's like it's like um winning another
championship ring if you're a basketball
player it's just just you know yeah they
each represent a moment in your career
and they each represent a collaboration
with your friends they they just they
each represent something special so what
does this one represent number five what
does this one represent for you well for
me I would say for my dad my dad when I
sent him the song he told me he said
Eric I think this is going to be one of
your biggest records and I was like n
dad you just saying that and it ended up
turning out to be one so that for me it
represents my relationship with my dad
and and just for me it's more
sentimental than anything that's
beautiful you know so does this trophy
go to your dad
absolutely straight to his house all
right he going to put it on the mantle
right in the front let you going put it
but so maybe you hold on to this one for
safekeeping until he tells you n I'm
going to send it right to him good that

because I'm doing it I get a really good

show ever like the other award shows are
great like there's there's no question
you get to see amazing celebrities but
this is the only one that has you know
the Oscars have a performance these are
like the best musicians in the world who
you pay literally I paid thousands of
dollars to see perform and they are all
performing back toback this is literally
the best show ever going the best
concert to happen in America every
single year she's also not kidding she
spent close to six figures on seeing
Taylor Swift might have been up there

excited to be talking to you and
everyone who has been on this platform
has been saying that they all are
equally excited to see you too knowing
the support that you have from this
community on a night like tonight what
does that mean to you it means
everything to me I feel like the support
and love that I've been getting is just
overwhelming overwhelming but I'm
accepting it I'm here I'm present I'm
ready now DOI you're nominated for Best
New Artist which we all know but your
first entry on the charts was a solo
joint tell us how much it means to you
to have your own individual record make
it on to the charts the universe is
really funny I would have never expected
that Deni as a river would be that
record but it's funny how people
gravitate towards stories something so
vulnerable ended up being something so
Global it's really cool yeah one thing I
love about you is how much of a hustler
you are you put in the work you grind
you see something that you want you go
after it Where Do We Go From Here what
are we what are we looking at we go to
the sky you go to the ceiling you go
above and beyond you go big that's where
you go yeah sounds like world domination
to me right that and we will see you
here again after this absolutely DOI
always good to see you congratulations
one heck of a year we are just we're in
all of you and and so so with a lot of
people who are here tonight too thank
you so much good luck tonight have a
great night you too bye oh DOI a lot of
people we're not even getting you when
we say so many people have done
interviews with us today Taylor and have
said that they want to see DOI DOI but
we have an icon right beside us Jody
garon how are you good how are you we're
doing great you look fa or do you want
to hold I'll I like not being in control
it's okay I'm usually let us do the work
you get to relax today I like it you get
to relax Max you the industry icon
recipient industry icon those are two
very those words hold a lot of magnitude
what do they mean to you so it's funny
because when Harvey called me um as I
said in my speech lday I was stunned
what I didn't say was that it sent me
down this whole path of what does it
mean and what it means to me is that I
have a platform to help people to
advocate for artists and to do more and
it's kind of a big
deal you know tonight here at the gramys
when you say doing more I think of what
the recording Academy Music cars are
doing for our community we are doing as
much as we can why was it important for
the show to go on tonight I think for
many reasons we have to start
rebuilding I think we have to bring
people back to Los Angeles there are so
many people who need the work I think
the movie studios the tele Television
Studios music we all have to work here
and we have to start now and we we're
resilient and so I do think it's very
important I understand why the labels
aren't doing the parties but I think for
the
Grammys and we have to celebrate these
amazing
artists and celebrate raising a lot of
funds for our community as well music
car's Fire Relief Fund I hear I hear
clapping here on the red car but we're
going to we're going to say that that's
for that everyone open your pockets and
donate money for the music hair Fire
Relief Fund oh you know why it is it's
because our First Responders actually
are walking in right now we're seeing
them trickle in what a beautiful moment
here in Los Angeles at the Grammys we
have buttons and pin celebrating our
First Responders here on the carpet wow
this is a very special moment Jody thank

that you do

strength or inspiration community

day it always comes back to the people

we as a community have for you guys and
all that you have done over the last few
weeks for us I feel like this is um we
do this uh behind the scenes all the
time and I've been on this job 25 years
and I know the uh public appreciates
what we do but to feel it in your face
that quick we don't do it for the
Applause and to have that it's um it's
what you guys have held us up on these
long days and we're so grateful and
appreciative and music heals the world
and that's why we're so honored to be
here what we have seen in the last few
weeks here in Los Angeles is unlike
anything we have ever seen before Taylor
and I joke that we're from Detroit where
like our city is very strong and then I
we saw the response here in Los Angeles
here absolutely blown away and they say
look for the helpers right in these
situations what has it been like for you
to see the community come together and
the ways that they have to show the
support oh it's just absolutely amazing
everybody to come coming together for
people who lost loved ones friends
neighbors uh but also people who lost
their home or their business who are
displaced La is strong they've come
together I'm not surprised but it's just
been so heartwarming to see she yeah and
I feel like the community surrounding
all of the people that have lost
something and us to do our jobs this
part of the world is just gorgeous and
it's a playground of of all over and to
have people support that and want to
help rebuild and get people back to
what's right I mean we're lucky to do
the jobs that we get to do well we are
lucky to have both of you and your teams
and from the bottom of our hearts thank
you thank you so much for all that you
have done and continue to do we know

were uh most struck by this terrible
tragedy so thank you for that thank you

gramys that I mean it's

obviously we we have even more purpose
to celebrate our community but just when
it comes to being around your peers and
celebrating the music I mean
what what comes to mind and what's on
your heart oh just it's really nice the
thing about the Grammys is that you it's
voted on by everybody who's kind of
doing the same thing as you are whether
they're producers or songwriters or you
know uh Engineers so uh to be recognized
by your peers who are in you know
fighting the good fight this in the same
way it's very sweet and then you get to

hands the number of people who I know
personally who lost everything you know

seems like over the course of history
musicians and artists are the ones who
kind of rally around first thing to go

should we should help out but it's uh
yeah the devastation is kind of
unfathomable and uh it's going to take a

your home turf yeah you know I live here
in Los Angeles I've been a member of the
recording Academy for a long time I was
a trustee uh not too long ago so this
feels like home yeah it's also date
night of course with Chrissy and also I
know you were of course nominated for
best children's music album which I know
mean meant a lot to you because you
shared that experience with their family
what did the kiddos say to you and
Chrissy as you were leaving tonight oh
they wished me luck and they were
excited for me um I'm nominated for
children's album and uh nominated for
arranging for two different songs one I
did did with Jacob CER and Tory Kelly
and then one is from my children's album
song called always come back which is a
special song for my kids cuz uh I wrote
it for them you know I wrote it about uh
how we have to leave sometimes but we
always come back so uh um I'm hoping at
least one of those wins tonight and uh
we'll see okay so if the kiddos are
watching cuz we are live right now what
do you want to say to them well I love
you and uh since it's on the west coast
you don't even have to go to bed you can
watch the whole show
yeah it's a late night for you
kiddos now of course the Grammys did
shift the focus a little bit this year
to focus more on relief efforts for the
fires that did happen music is such a
powerful force and we know that's with
the music that you create what do you
have to say to people that might need
just a little bit more encouragement to
get through Times Like These well uh we
live here in Los Angeles and so many of
our neighbors U went through a lot of
trauma we evacuated but we did uh lose
anything in the fire but we know very
close friends who did I'll be playing
with some musicians tonight who lost
their homes in the fires and so we know
it affected um thousands of families and
it was traumatizing for the whole
community and uh one of the beautiful
things about the Grammys and the
recording Academy is that we're always
giving back and especially for our
community of musicians a lot of
musicians aren't rich and famous they
just make music for a living every day
and they go out there and put their love
and their heart into all the work that
they do and music cares uh which is part
of the recording academy uh is an
organization that helps take care of
folks when they need us most so we
helped during covid and now we're
helping during the fires because so many
of our community members lost something
uh so many of our fellow musicians lost
something during this time and so we're
here for our fellow musicians our fellow
recording artists and we're going to do
what we can tonight to help raise money
and raise awareness and support them and
show our love for them John thank you

I'm looking forward to performing I'm so
excited uh I got the call I guess about
like a week or so ago and uh I'm getting
to be a part of the Quincy Jones tribute
so it's going to be pretty sweet how has
Quincy impacted or inspired you in your
career oh my goodness well first of all
I think country music is inspired and
influenced by so many different things
um but just the way that he has left his
Mark and he just went for it you know
just watching everything that he has
done um um you can't say it's not
inspiring you know what I'm saying y
amen now I know it's music's biggest
night but I'd be remiss if I did not ask
you for the fans of Yellowstone watching
at home we left off on a little bit of a
possible clip hanger yep no you said it
not me um where there could possibly be
a spin-off between you and Ian Bowen can
we keep that love story rolling you know
what I actually think Ian is somewhere
in LA right now he might be coming to
the party tonight too I don't know what
he's doing but but um we'll see I mean
Taylor Sheridan is full of surprises and
ideas so if he calls and say let's keep
the story going I'm there she's there
there's nothing this woman can't do
Laney Wilson everybody you're partial

tonight's nominees who are making their
way down the carpet right now
back on the carpet with Samra Joy
three-time Grammy winner
nominee so excited to have you here how
do it feel to be back on the carpet
tonight it feels kind of surreal but
also honestly like a family reunion a
little bit you know I get the chance to
see friends that I haven't seen
throughout the year um so I'm really
excited to you know get to see people
that I haven't seen all year I'll never
forget being backstage with you a couple
years ago after you took home your first
win it was Best New Artist and
I mean just I was so happy for you in
that moment but when you think back to
reliving that moment what comes to mind
I was crying like a baby I wasn't going
to say that but yes you were I was
crying like a b and it was like I feel
like that only happens in special
moments like when you just feel this
outpouring of emotion especially with
all that you've poured into what you
love to kind of receive it back in that
way was really special um and so I just
something took over me and I was like I
just need to let it all out and uh so
that's what you saw um you've seen the
most vulnerable parts of me so uh we
love the vulnerability um but yeah I'm
I'm so grateful and so honored that I
get the chance to keep coming back and
supporting more you know best I'm
excited to see women's Best New Artist
tonight I was going to say what are your
thoughts for the best new artist and
what words would you give them just
about if whoever takes it home what to
expect kind of after this and what doors
could possibly open I'm rooting for
everybody I have favorites in mine but
I'm record I'm rooting for everybody but
I will say don't be afraid to rest it's
a big moment you should take the rest
that you're you you've earned getting to
that moment and figure out what your
next steps are going to be but do not be
don't try to just go with the current of
it and you know let it kind of you know
just as quickly as it happens it's gone
so I cherish that moment cherish what
you've worked for and what you've earned
and rest and then from that place of
rest that's when you go and figure out
what's next
that is fantastic well
said and we could all probably take that
advice as well even though we're not
best You artist jaanese it's fine just
life advice right voting I'm voting for

contagious what did this day look like
for you heading into being here right
now on the red carpet man it's been such
a fun time you know last night we did
Clive Davis and I met so many Legends I
I performed there too and I saw JLo was
up and out of her seat so I had to give
her a little shout out when I was
performing but it was such a fun time um
seeing old friends seeing some of my
peers I always say like Grammy class is
like extraordinary there's so many
talented people um so many songs that I
think we're going to be singing for the
next 50 you know 50 Grammys from now

over you said JLA got up out of her seat
and you shouted her out did she dance a
little bit more for you what happened

her but she's just is every bit stunning
in person as you know she is in the
magazine so shout out JLo man can we
just talk about really quick I mean this
Best New Artist nomination of course
having a handful of nominations already
but this one in particular the magnitude
of this one for you what does it mean uh
you know it means a lot to my younger
self who's you know put 10 10 plus years
and counting into you know my artist
career and um just to be here being
recognized for something like this just
shows just the power of resilience you
know I I I don't I don't see myself as

I'm just honored to be amongst

at the r carpet and everything I've been
dreaming about this moment since I was a
kid so it's really it's incredible to be
here it's Indescribable yeah is it
everything you dreamed of yeah actually
it is yeah a what when you when you
think about the Grammy's red carpet and
you've dreamed about it like what did
you imagine I mean I just imagined a
moment where like um I mean I always
imagined the kind of fit I was wearing
as well but I always imagined just like
being amongst the people that I
literally grew up listening to grew up
practicing their kind of music and their
style and everything and being able to
be amongst them and to um to just be
able to share that experience with them
so yeah just random cool things like we
were just walking and John Legend said
what's up giddy I was like hey and I was
like oh let me introduce you to Kevin
and he's like oh hey like just random
stuff like that you know just really
cool but that's what it's about it's
about the community that everyone is
fostering here and reconnecting with or
meeting for the first time do you have
anybody else on your bucket list that
you're looking forward to meeting or
hanging out with tonight ah man last
year actually I saw joanny Mitchell and
she's a I named my daughter after her so
that was cool I mean you know just like
uh yeah any of the Legends I'm trying to
think who else is going to be here
tonight uh Beyonce Taylor I haven't met
though yeah they're great Frankie
Valley's here okay yes yes Frankie Val
yes yeah baby faces I mean there's so
many it's music's bigest night what
about you I mean like along with all
those people I mean I've always wanted
to also meet farell Williams as well and
I feel like every everyone that I've
like always wanted to meet I feel like
I'm been having the opportunity to meet
them today as well dreams are really
coming true for you today for real for
real that's what it's about it is that
is what this is about and and it's so
good to see both of you and and have fun
tonight seriously it's it's always good
to see you have the best time of
night that's the thing about music's
biggest night is you'll never know who
you will see is like that Will Smith
arriving Will Smith coming in on the car
hanging out having a good time with that
big smile as always I believe he is
presenting tonight too it is a star
studded evening Taylor I mean we have
seen so many people arrived here who has
been a highlight for you so far I could
go on a long list Cynthia Riva was a
huge one for me I'm sorry I was a wicked
St I'll own it so Cynthia Reva was very
special for me uh and also baby face
that's the curator of a sound of R&B for
so many of the songs that I grew up to
and so many other people listen to I
think it's cool seeing people who Define
genre walking down the carpet seeing the
impact that they
have well we are going to see many more
artists continue to hit the carpet right
here ahead of the 67th Grammy
Awards we are with they don't even need
an introduction but we'll give them one
anyway the one and only Green Day four
time Grammy winners have a few Grammy n
nominations tonight how are you feeling
uh feel wonderful we've um you know it's
been a great year so far I mean or last
year was a great year for us and it was
a huge tour big anniversaries and savior
our album and this is just capped it off
in a beautiful way and in a special way
too for the community because you all
have been performing to help raise money
for our community this past weekend you
took the time to perform at a concert to
raise money for people in need tonight
obviously the Grammys have shifted we
have a renewed sense of purpose tonight
to raise even more money why is this so
important wow I mean
you know Los Angeles
is part of the cultural Mecca of the
world in a lot of ways and you know
we're one we're from We're California so
we're from the Bay Area and it's like uh
there's always been a rivalry but it's
also been love you know so it's uh we
just wanted to do any anything in our
part to just lift the spirits of
Altadena and the Palisades so music is
so healing and what you do can inspire
people to make a change and if that's
what music can do these days then it's
really been great to see you all get out
there and impa no I mean music is like
it's a kind of art that it's not you
can't touch it you can't see it you feel
it it's it goes in your heart and it
goes in your soul so it's uh I think it
it really can sort of uh be a soundtrack
for healing for a lot of people with
that note thank you so much for all that
you are doing for the community
especially this weekend and
congratulations and thank you for your
time good to see you as always Green Day
everybody have a good one
you know this one we're here with zed
who is nominated tonight not just
nominated tonight but also a sixth time
Grammy nominee we're so excited to have
you here how are you feeling you I'm
very excited a little nervous a little
excited like always but yeah I'm happy
to be here you mentioned you're you're
nervous and excited like always CU this
is not your first rodeo you know how
this goes you still get nervous I do
still get nervous I have played far over
a thousand shows and I still get nervous
every time I step on stage I honestly
don't know if I will ever not be nervous
and maybe something about that is good
maybe it's part of excitement and it
still feels like the first time every
time even though I've been on this
carpet before how special is a night
like tonight for the community cuz we
saw you chitchatting with David geta
it's it's a night that you can come
together with your peers but we all have
a mission tonight A Renewed sense of
purpose to help our community dealing
with the wildfires so why was this night
why was it important for the show to
literally go on um I mean they do say
The Show Must Go On And I think there's
plenty reasons for it I think it's
incredible to see how the community
stepped up and and came together I mean
you just mentioned me talking to David I
wasn't sure if he was here or like we
don't see each other that often so it's
a good time to be able to catch up with
everybody but yeah I mean it's it's been
a devastating few months or few weeks
I'm not exactly sure it feels long
certainly and uh um it's also really
heartwarming to see in times like this
how everybody holds each other's hands
and and helps where you can so um you
know and it's tragic and heartwarming at
the same time it really is but you
create music that keeps people moving
keeps people dancing in High Spirits and
I think that's a lot of what we all need
right now that's very sweet thank you
for saying that and I know as an artist
oh I'm so sorry I'm so sorry I was going
to say as an artist you do not you don't
take that for granted you know the
magnitude of the platform that you have
that in these times that you can help
people heal through your music and I
never think about this and whenever
anybody tells me this it it really like
makes me emotional because I never think
of myself as somebody who helps anyone I
do this because it's my passion I've
done this since I was a baby and I sort
of do it as a like a form of therapy for
myself um and so whenever I get to hear
from other people that it help them in
any shape or form that really like it
warms my heart a lot so thank you very
much for for saying that matters and I
think something really important about
music is that it's not just you going
through it alone what's most powerful is
what's relatable to everyone that's what
you do absolutely it's all about this
entire event all of music is about
Community it's about celebrating moments
together and and being able to feel
feelings with each other um so you know
this is this is the night we get to
celebrate and and just be together all
in one place and of course celebrating
achievements to your nomination
congratulations have a wonderful rest of
the day so lovely to see you thank you
so much
guys we are welcoming in the one and
only yes you can do that yes give it to
us in all its Glory this is Victoria

little drop yeah I'm like your accessory

right gosh to be here tonight three time
Grammy Award
winner this Vibe this community I it
never gets old does it no absolutely not
I feel like also the fact that I get to
see like a free concert I'm kind of
cheating I'm like oh my God some of my
favorite artists are performing tonight
so like I'm just super excited to cheer
everybody on and see everybody get their
flowers you know who are you excited to
see um definitely Sabrina Sabrina like
her voice is so incredible and she's so
sweet and I just want to see her win you
know it just it feels automatic you know
so as the reigning Best New Artist
winner are you going to be presenting
that category yes yes I am I am so it's
a really like stiff category like
there's so many talented people and I
think all of them equally deserve the
award I was watching um we went to Cloud
Davis party last night and they were
performing some of the nominees were
performing for Best New Artist and I'm
just like how can anyone decide between
all these great acts so I just hope that
whoever doesn't win is not discouraged
and whoever does win just really feels
like top of the world what advice you
have for the person that does win coming
off your year of being Best New Artist
you know what I I would say don't let
the pressure of winning best new artists
take the Reign just do what you've
always done do just make the music that
you love to make with the people you
love to make it with don't let this
change anything is just an Accolade for
what you've done in the past and do it
the same way next time really quickly we
just had Cynthia Revo up here I have to
know has your daughter Hazel yep see
okay so her daughter Hazel's dying to
probably meet Cynthia oh 100% she went
to the premiere of wicked and she saw
Cynthia there and at first she wasn't as
much of a fan because it was before the
movie and then so after the movie she
was like so so you know Cynthia Riva so

people in one place you know this has
been a difficult time for so many
musicians and it's just really great to
see everybody in one place supporting
one another during this time true
absolutely AB absolutely uh I think it's
a you know yesterday I was at Clive
Davis and you had this really this
feeling of of a community of the the
music community and it was it was
beautiful to see that um you know I I I
hope things are going to get better um

new and exciting and uh keep making
music and then keep seeing us here year

your time congratulations good Lu you
too keep
smiling we are here with Deborah Cox and
Wayne Brady fresh off a beautiful
performance at the premier ceremony my
goodness you had everyone in tears what
was that moment like for you up there on
that stage in this moment in time oh In
This Moment In Time was so special so we
really wanted to bring heart and we
wanted people to feel supported and
loved and you know we we we had a great
time tonight yeah that that was it we
rather than just just sing a song being
able to sing something that meant
something uh there's so much going on in
the world so much going on here in Los
Angeles so to be able to to have this
moment to uplift that's the whole reason
that we're here so that felt great to be
the first people out on stage to set the
tone yes you know we've heard so much
about First Responders which is who
we're here raising money for advocating
for really poor but just earlier we
heard somebody call musicians and
performers second responders the people
that bring soul and inspiration to those
around them so what you're doing is
exactly that how important is it that
the Grammys went on the show went on
tonight oh yeah you know I think in this
particular moment we needed it this was
our Lifeline music is soothing music is
edifying music is soul stirring you know
we need it all and um and I'm I'm
thrilled honored to have been on the
stage again with my brother Wayne you
know we're here um super super proud of
what we've um done even in the whz and
to bring some joy and and laughter
tonight as well was really important
Art's necessary yeah so the fact that
the show goes on and the important
distinction I think isn't The Show Goes
On so everybody can pat their back and
we put on great outfits and weren't you
wonderful The Show Goes On so so that we
can supply some Joy Supply some hope
Supply some levity Supply some great
music all of these things that are just
as important to a human being as food
and water to to so that we can live so
that's why this had had to happen
beautifully said thank you so much for
your time and for all that you do with
your platform to help the community we
appreciate it and thank you for that
opening number setting the tone for a
beautiful day here at the Grammys where
we are going to help our fellow
angelinos here in Los Angeles and so
thank you so much Deb Cox and Wayne
Brady thank
you oh the moment a lot of people were
waiting for Taylor Swift's arrival she
just got here a few moments ago looking
ravishing in red maybe a possible nod to
it sounds like Chiefs red to me all the
way down to the hill you couldn't miss
that oh my goodness well let's bring in

and so many levels everyone coming
together being together the community

and that's what that's what tonight's
about isn't it it's about building
community and giving back to the
community as well how important is it to
you to use music to inspire others to
get through this time I mean music is
that beautiful language that we all can

here on your screens is of course Taylor
Swift ravishing in red we saw her as she
made her entrance and Taylor oh the
other Taylor tayor yeah yeah we got
Taylor squared right here but it was it
was almost as like an angel walked in it
wasn't as chaotic as I thought it would
be it was just Taylor and a couple
people in her te team and she just
swiftly walked on through she took some
photos with some children who were
waiting for her a very sweet young girl
gave her a white rose which was so
adorable Taylor is just so lovely and
welcoming speaking of lovely and
welcoming we are going to welcome in
Gloria EST beautiful both of you
beautiful like the trophies it's the
energy we want to Gold absolutely you
know something about these Grammy
trophies oh my gosh listen it never gets
so we were so happy to win with Sheila
and Celia Cruz is song b Celia was my
queen and our Cuban Queen so it was very
special to share with Mimi suar who won
her first Grammy for her album it was
awesome so tonight it all all the girls
get to just celebrate absolutely we're
all celebrating but you know what the
best thing was the camaraderie the fun
we had doing the video and recording and
it was a very special
project now tonight of course come rerie
and community is what we're focused on
here with music cares for the Fire
Relief how important is it to you that
we're here and United it's very
important uh Emilo and I already donated
to the cause because we were here when
those fires started and I I you know
when I left and I was looking for my
airplane window I was just praying for
everyone here and we have so many
friends that are here that that lost
homes and you know it it's just a really
tough thing to go through and to I want
to thank all those amazing First
Responders that are all always on the
front lines and everybody in La that's
really rallied so we got to help out in
whatever way we can how would you
describe the atmosphere here because
this is unlike any Grammy awards that we
have ever been to and it's all about
Community do you feel that when you're
walking around here absolutely the
energy after any you know difficult
moment that people go through and we've
all lived it after 911 was brutal after
every shooting especially the very first
one Coline changed so many things in the
entertainment industry
you realize how fortunate we are to be
able to make music and put joy out into
the world because we need as much joy as
we all can to balance out the things
that we're all going to go through
inevitably and to be there for each
other is all we can ever do music is
healing yes indeed music is healing it
got me through the toughest parts of my
life and knowing that your music also
helps heal others what does that mean to
you it's an honor and a privilege that I
don't take lightly every time I write a
song I think about what feeling it's
going to evoke and whoever is listening
and I always try to empower or you know
be a catharsist for somebody if they
want to cry have words for them to say
to somebody that they can't so it's
important for me thank you Gloria have a
wonderful night tonight so much
Gloria from one icon to the next we are
going to bring up Lady Gaga herself
hello hello Lady Gaga on how are you
beautiful thank you so nice to see you
you look so beautiful you like
absolutely ravishing thank you you are
of course a 14 time Grammy Award winner
I imagine this never gets old to you
being here and celebrating the community
but especially on a night like tonight
in a moment in time that we're having
especially with the wildfires you of
course have a home in Malibu what does
it mean to you to be here tonight you
know I just uh love the world and love
people so much and it's an absolute
privilege to to be a songwriter and a
singer and to be able to uh sing for
people during this time and just send as
much love as I can into the world I I
feel um so heavy in my heart for people
that lost everything uh for people that
um didn't make it through so I'm just
thinking of everyone tonight and uh
Bruno and I have something special
planned so I'm excited uh to be here and
and so like happy to be um just feeling
blessed What can you give us a little
sneak peek on what you've got with Bruno
give us a little sneak peek on what you
Bruno you we're not live or anything I
can't I can't no I I wanted to be
surprised but we have something special
planned and we love you so much at home
we're thinking about you and uh I'm just
happy to be here I know you can tease
about the upcoming album though Mayhem
oh my goodness I know you have poured
your blood your spat your tears into
this album as you do with any project
but how excited are you you for this one
to finally get into the fans hands I'm
so excited my record comes out on March
7th um I love my fans so much little
monsters I love you uh I I worked really
hard on this record I spent a lot of
time in the studio like honing in all
the sounds writing song after song and
just making something that I feel truly
proud of and get ready to dance yes we
need to dance we are so ready to dance
Gaga thank you so much so good to see
you
oh bella bella bella I went for the
handshake and she gave the hug see I
love hug a kiss how do you not love her
how do you not love the Grammy Gaga oh
my goodness we that is going to be a
performance tonight I can't wait what
Bruno you got something what's special I
think it's it's going to be a special
nod to Los Angeles I believe you know
and and after hearing what she said I
know that they have something very
impactful planned up their sleeves but
wrong with Gaga and
Bruno we're back on the carpet with Jim
gaffan eight time Grammy nominee does it
ever get old it never gets old but I
like to thank eight time Grammy loser no
you know I no I am so thrilled to be
nominated but I uh it's yeah it's weird
I don't have an expectation of winning
but that's also you know that's the
better vibe to carry into the event I'm
so excited to be here and I'm dressed
like a Batman villain so that's all you
need to do right your category is
stacked too with your friends oh
absolutely and people are having
incredible years and there's Legends so
it's it's it's really just cool to be
included well for the record villains
usually do dress better than the heroes
so o what's that villains dress better
than the heroes so take that one yes so
maybe maybe since I'm dressed like a
villain maybe I'll win
you know I like that I'll steal
it be weird it'll be uh another thing to
get used to winning cuz I've never
really I mean I've won you know what I
mean at uh being nominated we're going
to we're going to change the tele
promper so fast in the event that you
win if I win yeah now we'll do it where
I won I can't believe I won what does
this mean to you it was so great and I
feel like you know I'm just so humbled
by all of it and now we do it where I
have to split it with someone okay who
are we splitting it with Nikki Trevor I
think it's Nikki all right here we're
going to do it where I'm like I'm so
happy for Nikki Nikki won and you know
I'm so happy also for Trevor for winning
because he you know he's been part of
the gramys and I think he was great
tonight I'm so happy for Ricky you know
what I mean it's like it's good that
he's being acknowledged and I'm and I'm
thrilled for Dave because finally he's
he's winning something I mean he hasn't
ever lost but I'm so happy that Dave
Chappelle a legend uh is here to take
every single award from every comedian
it's like the scene in Mean Girls when
they break the trophy and give it to
everyone that's what's happening right
here it's all good Jim thank you so much
for your time and congratulations
amazing you do too those shoes are sharp
thank you J
we are with Grace Bowers who is
performing at the gramys okay when you
hear those words performing at the
Grammys what's the first thing that
comes to your mind I like I can't even
process it also I was asked to do this
three days ago so um you know I was
supposed to be going home today and now
I'm like now you're here at the gramy
ticket change wow and that was I imagine
a very easy yes for you to say even
though it was 3 days ago oh my God yeah
that was I think that was the quickest
yes I've ever said in my entire life the
magnitude of this moment being here and
taking the stage on music's biggest
night I mean what does that mean to you
it's just it's crazy because last year
um I got lucky enough to be in the
audience to be watching the Grammys and
um all I could think about was like it's
my goal to like one day be on that stage
or even just to like you know be down
there uh and I never thought like it
would happen within a year
so Kelsey ballerini has a song called
this time last year and it just goes to
show that you never know what can happen
within a year's time frame so what are
we doing next year oh
gosh winning a
Grammy well we'll see that that's also
top of the bucket list there we go last
year bucket list reform Crossing them
off
yeah uh well you know tonight is all
about Community we're of course
celebrating our friends and the
achievements but we're also celebrating
our community and giving back to the
community why was it important for the
Grammys to continue tonight so that we
could all come together to raise money
for our community and help out yeah well
obviously you know raising money and
raising awareness but also like I was
just thinking about this the other day
there's so many people down here from
like stylists to makeup artists and even
just like everyone who's working the
event like that would have been out of a
job if this didn't go on and that's just
I'm not even just talking about like
this event either like I think things
like this are good for the city um
because like it can't just shut down you
know um so it's been really cool seeing
like the way everyone's come together
especially the musical Community like uh
I was watching sound check and there's
lots of tributes going on and uh fire
aade a few days ago so it's cool seeing
like what everyone's done to kind of
help out where they can it's been
beautiful to see for sure and tonight is
no exception congratulations and good
luck on your performance and wait to
watch I know we'll be we'll be cheering
you on so lovely to see
you oh we are moments away from the 67th
Grammy Awards the red carpet is slowly
starting to I don't want to say shut
down because the part's just about to
start on the inside but when it slows
down on the carpet that's when you know
we got some big people trickling in that
is true we saw Taylor make her entrance
Lady Gaga made her entrance we just had
Gaga up here a few moments ago talked
about her new album coming next excited
so excited about that I do see Shakira
is here fun fact today is Shakira's
birthday so what a way to celebrate your
birthday hopefully we will be speaking
to her in just a few moments maybe C we
sing happy
birthday we're here with Ranna and
giddens presenter at the premiere
ceremony how are you feeling tonight to
be back at the gramys it always feels
good to be here especially right now
with everything that's going on to
celebrate with everyone we have to find
our joy even in the midst of darkness
and then we have to take that joy and
make it happen make something happen you
know that's my thing something in the
form of a lot of money to music Care's
Fire Relief Fund to give back to our
community right definitely absolutely we
people who have need to give and people
who have more need to give more give
more exactly yes what has it been like
to see the community of Los Angeles come
together over the these past few weeks
it's been very difficult out here um but
what's it been like to see the community
lend their support because it's been
pretty beautiful I see the future I see
an inspiration for the whole country
we're all in hard times in Los Angeles
is an example of how we take hard times
and rise up with art and love and come
together and make something beautiful
we're a city of dreamers and nothing's
going to get us down right well I mean
they they're going to try they're going
to try but you know Community is where
the future is community we have to come
together and we have to be local and we
have to help each other out cuz
otherwise we have no chance but we have
a chance with each other and that's what
tonight is about it's all about
Community it's all about reconnecting
with the people that are part of the
space and we're just so happy to have
you here and part of it all as well so
thank you for being here thanks for
having thanks for talking to us thank
you for your
time as you see right there Alicia Keys

Grammy winner 15 time Grammy nominee you
are smiling ear to ear over here hearing
those words but how important was it for
you to to be here tonight and and and be
with the community on a night like
tonight I think it's the most important
time ever for me personally I've been
here the last three years uh nominated
and actually winning but for me it's not
even about winning today or anything
like that it it's more about um you know
uh being thankful for the First
Responders and music cares of course and
you know we have so many friends I mean
we were also threatened by the fires
directly up in to a canyon so uh it just
felt like we needed to be here and to
help hopefully put smiles on people's
faces and and I know that our music uh
the music of Metallica does really
motivate and Inspire individuals to do
to do well and be the best that they can
be so that's all a part of this too I
have a lot of friends that are
firefighters and they get motivated by
our music help save lives and uh that's
what's important now you know there's so
much these days about how music can
inspire others to do so much more than
they think they can do so thank you for
creating music that motivates thank you
for all you do and for the platform that
you have and that you use to give back
so thank oh yeah it's all about giving
back especially now thank you so much

really feel like and I feel like a lot

attention back
to one of the hearts of California you
