Harry Styles drops the F-bomb and is bleeped out during his Grammy Awards 2021 acceptance speech as he and Dua Lipa lead the British winners
- The Adore You hitmaker, 27, who picked up the Best Pop Solo performance for Watermelon Sugar, dropped the f-bomb during his memorable moment
- Harry led the British winners alongside songstress Dua Lipa, who won for Best Pop Vocal Album for Future Nostalgia
- London-born musician Jacob Collier made Grammy history on the night by becoming the first British artist in history to win a prize for his first four albums
Harry Styles made sure his speech was one to remember as he accepted his first Grammy Award on Sunday.
The Adore You hitmaker, 27, who picked up the Best Pop Solo performance for Watermelon Sugar, dropped the f-bomb during his memorable moment, leading part of his speech to be bleeped out as it aired to American audiences.
Harry led the British winners alongside songstress Dua Lipa, who won for Best Pop Vocal Album for Future Nostalgia.
Bleeped: Harry Styles made sure his speech was one to remember as he accepted his first Grammy Award on Sunday – with part of his words bleeped out
As he picked up the award at the Los Angeles Convention Center, he said: ‘This was the first song we wrote after my first album came out, during a day off in Nashville.
‘I feel very grateful to be here, thank you.’
His speech was then bleeped out – however only in the US – with fans worldwide revealing what Harry had said.
‘All of these songs are f–kin’ massive so thank you so much, I feel very honored to be among all of you’ he said.
Don’t Stop Now: Harry led the British winners alongside songstress Dua Lipa, who won for Best Pop Vocal Album for Future Nostalgia (above)
Harry scored a surprise victory in the Best Pop Performance category as he beat out a very impressive field including Dua, Billie Eilish, and even ex Taylor Swift.
Harry was the first musical performer of the night as he donned a Gucci leather suit with no shirt underneath for a stripped down version of his hit Watermelon Sugar.
The style icon then donned a Gucci yellow and green tweed jacket, paired with an extravagant purple feather boa for the ceremony.
His stylist Harry Lambert said the star wanted to look ‘British and eccentric’ for the glitzy evening.
Oh dear: The Adore You hitmaker, 27, who picked up the Best Pop Solo performance for Watermelon Sugar, dropped the f-bomb during his memorable moment, leading part of his speech to be bleeped out as it aired to American audiences
He told Vogue.com: ‘This is Harry’s first Grammys, and so we wanted to do something that felt British and eccentric.
‘A little bit rock ‘n’ roll and a little bit camp. I hope we did this with the mix of the tweed and the boa, [which is] Britishness, rock’n’roll, and camp all rolled into one.’
And although the two outfits ‘felt polar opposites’, there was deliberate similarities between them.
Lambert said: ‘ ‘It was also important to us all that the silhouette for the stage was the same as the red carpet but that the actual looks felt polar opposites.
‘One being patterned and vibrant and the other being more slick and sexy.’
The Adore You singer has donned retro, colourful outfits throughout his ‘Fine Line’ album campaign, so deliberately opted for a ‘darker’ look on stage to signify the end of an era.
Swore: ‘All of these songs are f–kin’ massive so thank you so much, I feel very honored to be among all of you’ he said
His stylist explained: ‘I think people could assume that, as he is performing his single ‘Watermelon Sugar,’ his look will reflect the music video.
‘We wanted to twist that on its head and go for something darker, sexier, and more unexpected.
‘I don’t feel that anyone has seen Harry dress like this before, so the Grammys felt the perfect moment to do this.
‘[It is] a sort of full stop after the promotion of the ‘Fine Line’ album campaign. For stage, it’s sexy, minimal, a bit eccentric but still fun.’
Fellow British winner Dua, 25, spoke of how record Future Nostalgia changed her life during her acceptance speech.
Hunk: Harry was the first musical performer of the night as he donned a leather suit with no shirt underneath for a stripped down version of his hit Watermelon Sugar
She said: ‘Oh my goodness. Wow, thank you so much. This is insane.
‘Future Nostalgia means the absolute world to me and it has changed my life in so many ways.
‘But one thing that I have really come to realise is how much happiness is so important. I felt really dated at the end of my last album where I felt like I only had to make sad music to feel like it mattered.
‘ And I’m just so grateful and so honoured because happiness is something we all deserve and need in our lives.’
The singer walked the red carpet in a high-shine chain metal rainbow-coloured Versace gown with a butterfly motif and she was ‘thrilled’ with the creation.
She told People magazine: ‘This dress was made for me by Versace. ‘I love it. I feel, I feel like a princess in it so yeah I’m thrilled.’
Leggy look: Singer Dua Lipa looked incredible in a sheer beaded Versace dress with thigh-high slit and towering heels
She told ‘E! Live From the Red Carpet’ host Giuliana Rancic: ‘There was a lot of symbolism for me this year with butterflies and it’s also very symbolic for Versace and Donatella too.’
Ahead of her performance at the ceremony, Dua had teased it would be ‘quite pink’.
She hinted: ‘There’s a little medley, there’s…it’s quite pink! We have some outfit changes and that’s all I can tell you.’
Sure enough, Dua managed three pink-toned costume changes during her appearance on stage.
She kicked off in a hot pink ball gown to sing ‘Levitating’, before changing to a purple glitter suit jacket when DaBaby joined her for his verse, and she then stripped that off to reveal a pink sparkling bikini ready to sing ‘Don’t Start Now’, for which she was joined by a troupe of dancers, who donned metallic masks featuring bright pink lips.
Wow: Fellow British winner Dua, 25, spoke of how record Future Nostalgia changed her life during her acceptance speech
London-born musician Jacob Collier made Grammy history on the night by becoming the first British artist in history to win a prize for his first four albums.
He won the Best Arrangement, Instruments And Vocals award for ‘He Won’t Hold You’ Featuring Rapsody.
Beyonce broke the record for most wins ever by a singer and most wins by a female artist with 28 gongs but it was Billie Eilish who earned the top honor at the 63rd Annual Grammy Awards.
The 39-year-old singer – full name Beyonce Giselle Knowles – became the most decorated singer in the history of the gala event as she earned Best R&B Performance for Black Parade inside of a tent outside of the Los Angeles Convention Center for music’s biggest night.
Shimmer: The singer walked the red carpet in a high-shine chain metal rainbow-coloured Versace gown with a butterfly motif and she was ‘thrilled’ with the creation
However it was 19-year-old Eilish who beat out an impressive field including Beyonce to earn Record Of The Year at the very end of the night for her hit single Everything I Wanted.
Earlier in the night, Beyonce’s record-breaking award was presented by two of the most iconic producers of all-time – Babyface and Jimmy Jam – as Jam proudly made the announcement saying: ‘Oh! Okay, wait a minute, history has just been made, breaking the all-time record for the most Grammy wins ever by any female artist or any singer male or female, the Grammy goes to Beyonce!’
Beyonce stands alone with the most wins as a singer but trails Hungarian-born British orchestral and operatic conductor Sir Georg Solti who has 31 total Grammys. The win also tied her with record producer Quincy Jones with 28.
The artist began her speech saying: ‘As an artist I believe it’s my job and all of our jobs to reflect the times. And it’s been such a difficult time. So I wanted to uplift, encourage, celebrate all of the beautiful black queens and kings that continue to inspire me and inspire the whole world.
Inspiration: London-born musician Jacob Collier made Grammy history on the night by becoming the first British artist in history to win a prize for his first four albums
This is so overwhelming. I have been working my whole life since nine years old. And I can’t believe this happened, it’s such a magical night, thank you so much.’
The A-lister – who was joined at the event by mogul husband Jay-Z at the event – thanked her eldest daughter Blue Ivy Carter, aged 9, who happened to win her first Grammy of all-time earlier in the night in the Best Music Video category for Brown Skin Girl with Beyonce.
She said: ‘I know my daughter is watching. My daughters and my son, Blue, congratulations, you won a grammy tonight. I’m so proud of you. And I’m so honored to be your mommy, all of your mommies.
Y’all are my babies. And I’m so proud of y’all. I love you so much, my rock. Enjoy your night, thank you.’
Success story: He won the Best Arrangement, Instruments And Vocals award for ‘He Won’t Hold You’ Featuring Rapsody
The show took place at the Los Angeles Convention Center which offers plenty of space indoors and outdoors for the socially-distanced telecast.
Extensive precautions were made amid the COVID-19 pandemic after the event, normally held at LA’s famed Staples Center, was delayed from its original date of January 31 and pandemic protocols had to be put in place.
Grammys executive producer Ben Wilson told Variety on Monday, March 8: ‘The performers and nominees are each other’s audience, so it’s a room of incredible musicians, all safely distanced from each other, and every 45 minutes a new four groups come in and the [previous] four go out.’
Harry Styles, Bad Bunny, Post Malone, Megan Thee Stallion and Dua Lipa were among those hitting the stage at the star-studded event as some of the performances were actually prerecorded.
What a feat! Beyonce has broken the record for most wins ever by a singer and most wins by a female artist with 28 but it was Billie Eilish who earned the top honor at the 63rd Annual Grammy Awards on Sunday night
Proud: The 39-year-old singer became the most decorated singer in the history of the gala event as she earned Best R&B Performance for Black Parade inside of a tent outside of the Los Angeles Convention Center for music’s biggest night
Co-executive producer Raj Kapoor told Variety: ‘One of our mandates was that [performers] have to come to us and be part of our team and film in L.A.
‘We’re not interested in doing a show that is disconnected. There’s a physical presence to it, of people performing live for the camera and being in a single location. Other shows may have used music videos and virtual reality and stuff, but ours is actually based in Los Angeles, where we usually celebrate the Grammys.
‘It may be done in a different way, but it definitely feels like people are coming together to make this show.’
Other performers included Chris Martin, John Mayer, Doja Cat, Maren Morris, DaBaby, HAIM, Lil Baby, Brandi Carlile, Roddy Ricch, Brittany Howard, Miranda Lambert, Mickey Guyton and Black Pumas.
Daily Show host Trevor Noah is hosting the event for the first time.
Beyonce led all nominees as she was up for nine awards on the night.
Flabbergasted: However it was 19-year-old Eilish who beat out an impressive field including Beyonce to earn Record Of The Year at the very end of the night for her hit single Everything I Wanted
The singer picked up song and record of the year bids with Black Parade, which she released on Juneteenth, the holiday that commemorates when the last enslaved African Americans learned they were free.
The song, which reached the Top 40 on the pop charts, is also nominated for best R&B song and best R&B performance.
Beyonce’s Black Is King film that highlighted Black art, music, history and fashion is up for best music film while Brown Skin Girl, a song dedicated to dark- and brown-skinned women, is nominated for best music video.
The singer also earned three nominations for her slick guest appearance on Megan Thee Stallion´s No. 1 hit Savage, including record of the year, best rap performance and best rap song.
Talented family: Beyoncé’s daughter Blue Ivy also won her first Grammy, the second youngest winner at nine years old, as she appeared on Brown Skin Girl, which won Best Music Video
A winner of 24 Grammys, Beyonce becomes the second-most nominated act in the history of the awards show with 79 nominations as she is currently tied with Paul McCartney.
Beyonce is only behind her husband Jay-Z and Quincy Jones, who have both earned 80 nominations each.
Multiple nominations went to Taylor Swift, Dua Lipa and Roddy Ricch, who each earned six nominations and followed the Lemonade hitmaker as the second-most nominated acts.
Incredible: Taylor Swift also earned one of the biggest wins of the night as became the the first female artist to win the Album Of The Year Grammy Award three times
Megan Thee Stallion, who released her highly anticipated debut album last week after finding success with hit singles and mixtapes since 2018, scored four nominations including best new artist.
Another musician who is competing with Megan in the best new artist category is Phoebe Bridgers who also has four nominations including in the best alternative music album category for Punisher.
K-pop kings BTS earned their first-ever Grammy nomination after years of having success on the pop charts. They will compete for best pop duo/group performance with their No. 1 hit, Dynamite.
Other first-time nominees include the Strokes, Megan Thee Stallion, Michael Kiwanuka, Jay Electronica and Harry Styles, who became the first One Direction member to earn a Grammy nomination.
Several acts earned posthumous nominations, including John Prine (best American Roots performance, best American Roots song), Nipsey Hussle (best rap performance), Leonard Cohen (best folk album) Pop Smoke (best rap performance) and songwriter LaShawn Daniels (best gospel performance/song).
There was some controversy regarding nominations as The Weeknd earned zero nominations despite having multiple hits this year including Blinding Lights which has remained on the Billboard Top 10 for a full year.
The 31-year-old Canadian crooner expressed displeasure withe the lack of recognition when nominations were announced back in November.
‘The Grammys remain corrupt,’ the singer said on Twitter at the time. ‘You owe me, my fans and the industry transparency.’
Songs and albums released between Sept. 1, 2019 and Aug. 31, 2020 were eligible for nominations this year
