"The category is dance or die."

Lady Gaga said these words to open a MasterCard commercial that also appears to be a music video for her new single, "Abracadabra."

The artist has teased her new album, "MAYHEM," which is set for a March 7 release.

The Grammys turned up in its second hour with a bunch of fantastic performances. From Benson Boone singing "Beautiful Things" with of course, his signature stage flip to Doechii showing the world why she just won best rap album, the second hour brought the audience to its feet.

But it wasn't just the music: The poignant and meaningful speeches also underscored what is shaping up to be a great awards show.

Chappell Roan got a roar of applause when she called on music labels provide a "livable wage and health care, especially to developing artists." Then, there was another call to action, as host Trevor Noah again encouraging viewers to raise money for MusiCares, a foundation which gives back to artists in times of need but in the wake of the fires.

The Weeknd closed the second hour of the show with a surprise performance. The artist had previously said he would not return because he felt a lack of the trust with the awards show. But after a speech by Recording Academy CEO, Harvey Mason Jr., about how he was working to improve the organization and cited The Weeknd, like true Hollywood magic, the artist put on a show-stopping, laser-filled performance.

The Weeknd gave a surprise performance tonight, taking the stage in a cloud of smoke that transitioned into watery blue.

He kicked off his set with “Cry for Me" and "Timeless."

Harvey Mason Jr., Recording Academy CEO, took to the stage to speak of the growth the organization has experienced.

"Now, charting a new course is never easy," he said. "There's still work to be done, but I firmly believe we're on the right path, as we've seen tonight. Music is a powerful force for good. It heals us, it unites us, and we need that in this city right now."

He then introduced the surprise performer: The Weeknd, who was among those critical of the Grammys in the past for for the Academy's voting process.

The duo behind the smash hit “Die With A Smile” took on the Grammy stage to deliver a rendition of "California Dreamin'."

Their performance was preceded by images of the devastation the California wildfires left behind and how Angelenos are pushing through catastrophic losses.

In a more somber moment during tonight's Grammys, host Trevor Noah introduced video footage that captured the destruction and devastation caused by the L.A. wildfires.

“Everybody in Los Angeles and in this building tonight, working on stage and off, knows somebody who has lost their home, their business, all the lives that they knew less than a month ago,” Noah said. “And I just want everybody to remember what this moment was like. I know I don’t need to remind you. For those who haven’t seen, take a look at some of the devastation.”

It's been the year of Chappell Roan. Fresh off a record-breaking festival circuit, Roan secured the Grammy for best new artist.

Roan, known for being outspoken, stayed the course with her acceptance speech. After she offered a host of thank yous, she fulfilled a promise to herself.

"I told myself if I ever won a Grammy and I got to stand up here in front of the most powerful people in music, I would demand that labels and the industry profiting millions of dollars off of artists would offer a livable wage and health care, especially to developing artists," Roan began, reading from a diary.

She talked about being signed as a minor and how she got dropped from her label with "zero job experience under my belt, and like most people, I had a difficult time finding a job in the pandemic and could not afford health insurance."

She said it was "so devastating to feel so committed to my art and feel so betrayed by the system and so dehumanized to have to not have help."

Roan said if her label prioritized the health of her and other artists, "I could have been provided care by a company I was giving everything to."

In conclusion, Roan said "record labels need to treat their artists as valuable employees with a livable wage and health insurance and protection."

"Labels, we got you, but do you got us?" she concluded.

And just like that, a new meme is born.

Beyoncé's shocked reaction to winning best country album has gone viral, with people sharing clips and screenshots of the moment.

Many social media users said the moment pretty much captures how they feel about 2025 and life.

The moment shows Queen Bey appearing to freeze before heading up to accept her award. Her daughter Blue Ivy then motions for her to stand up.
