Billy Joel walks Grammys red carpet with wife, daughters

Billy Joel made the Grammys a family affair with his wife and daughters.

The “Turn the Lights Back On” singer was all smiles as he posed on the red carpet with wife Alexis Roderick and daughters Della Rose and Remy Anne.

His daughters wore watching black gowns while Roderick also wore a black gown with a sparkling bodice.


Miley Cyrus and more continue to arrive on Grammys red carpet

The stars are continuing to shine on the 2024 Grammys red carpet.

Miley Cyrus left little to the imagination as she donned a gown seemingly made entirely out of gold safety pins and big hair for the awards show.

Cyrus is up for three of the top categories of the night, including album of the year for "Endless Summer Vacation" and both song of the year and record of the year for her hit song "Flowers."

Also showing up on the red carpet were "Vampire Diaries" alum Kat Graham and Australian pop diva Kylie Minogue, whose catchy earworm "Padam Padam" won her the inaugural Grammy for best pop dance recording earlier tonight.


Niecy Nash-Betts and Jessica Betts and more couples hit the Grammys red carpet

Several couples stepped out together on the Grammys red carpet, including Niecy Nash-Betts and her wife Jessica Betts, Mary Steenburgen and Ted Danson, and Fantasia Barrino and her husband Kendall Taylor.

Betts and Nash-Betts shared a kiss as they posed for photos, while Steenburgen and Danson were all smiles as they walked the carpet together.

Photographers also captured a sweet moment between Barrino, who wore a black gown with a flowing train, and Taylor.


Women dominate in major categories at this year's Grammys

Women occupy nearly all the spots in three of the big four categories this year, including album of the year, song of the year and record of the year.

In the album of the year category, the list of nominees consists predominantly of women, including Miley Cyrus, Lana Del Rey, Olivia Rodrigo, Taylor Swift, SZA and the indie group boygenius, which includes Julien Baker, Phoebe Bridgers and Lucy Dacus.

Janelle Monáe, who uses she/her and they/they pronouns, is also nominated in the album of the year and record of the year categories, marking a major moment for non-binary performers.

Joining Monáe in the record of the year category are boygenius, Cyrus, Billie Eilish, Monét, Rodrigo, Swift and SZA.

Del Rey, Swift, Rodrigo, Lipa, Cyrus, SZA and Eilish also dominated the song of the year category.

Jon Batiste is the only male artist who is nominated in each of those categories.

Billie Eilish and Finneas won best song written for visual media for "What Was I Made For?" while Mark Ronson and several producers behind "Barbie the Album" won for best compilation soundtrack for visual media.

In addition to the night's "Barbie" winners, Victoria Monét took home the award for best R&B Album for "JAGUAR II" and Chris Stapleton won best country song for his single "White Horse." The award for best rock performance went to boygenius for their song "Not Strong Enough."
