2015 Grammy Awards Best & Worst Moments, From A Glorious 'Selma' Tribute To Paul McCartney's Dad Dancing

Early in the night, Sam Smith won the Grammy for “Best New Artist” and surprised absolutely no one. He tried to hold it together as he emotionally exclaimed, “I won a Grammy!”

Then Smith took home the award for “Best Pop Vocal Album.” He told the crowd, “It was only when I started being myself that the music started to flow & people started to listen.”

It didn’t stop there! He also won “Song of the Year” and “Record of the Year.” Having the best night ever, he dedicated the awards to the guy who inspired his music, saying, “Thank you so much for breaking my heart, because you got me four Grammys.”

With what looked like the set of Frozen behind her, Ariana Grande sang “Just A Little Bit Of Your Heart,” aka a song written by Harry Styles. The performance was a bit boring, but at least she and Big Sean killed it on the red carpet.

In her acceptance speech for Best R&B Performance, Beyoncé not only thanked Blue Ivy, but she also thanked the entire Beyhive for supporting her. This was also Bey’s 20th Grammy, a feat achieved only by 15 other people in history.

Ed Sheeran shined at the Grammys as he sang “Thinking Out Loud.” First, he performed with John Mayer. (Was Taylor Swift OK with this?!) Then, he sang with Electric Light Orchestra.

One of the greatest moments of the night? When Paul McCartney stood up during the Ed Sheeran/ELO performance to dance… But realized he was the only one. Relive the awkward (yet awesome) moment via this Vine.

There’s a new king of side-eye. As T. Swift danced along in the crowd, she got some serious looks of disapproval from Pharrell Williams. It was hilarious yet perfect. But hey, as Tay says herself, “haters gonna hate, hate, hate.”

In an unexpected PSA, President Obama spoke during the Grammys about the need for an end of domestic violence. As part of the It’s On Us campaign, this important message segued perfectly into Katy Perry’s performance with Brooke Axtell.

Unlike her dancing sharks at the Super Bowl, Perry’s Grammy performance was much more serious. It began with a spoken word piece by domestic violence survivor Brooke Axtell, which was INCREDIBLE. Axtell said, “Authentic love does not devalue another human being. Authentic love does not silence, shame or abuse.”

Then, Perry took the stage and sang her ballad “By The Grace of God.” So powerful!

During Pharrell’s performance of “Happy,” which would’ve been memorable by itself, he took things a step further. He took a moment to do the “Hands Up, Don’t Shoot” gesture, showing support for Mike Brown and the Black Lives Matter movement. Amazing!

Sure, these three may seem like a random trio, but their talent is undeniable. Their song “FourFiveSeconds” is fantastic, and their performance at the Grammy’s didn’t disappoint either.

She may not have made a meme-worthy face this time, but Chrissy Teigen still stole the show! Her dancing with John Legend in the audience was absolutely awesome.

If you thought “Stay With Me” was perfect as is, the song got an upgrade when Sam Smith performed with Mary J. Blige. With a live orchestra in the background, it was a beautiful performance.

No offense to Beck, but everybody let out a collective gasp when he snagged the title of Album of the Year. He beat Beyoncé, Ed Sheeran, Pharrell Williams, and Sam Smith. Twitter was (understandably) outraged.

Proving he has a sense of humor, Kanye West poked fun at his 2009 VMA moment when he stole the microphone from Taylor Swift. He strolled on stage as Beck went to accept his award for Album of the Year, but then backed off. Well played, Kanye. Well played!

In the most surprising cameo of the night, Kristen Wiig joined Sia on stage for her performance of “Chandelier.” Who knew she could dance?! Check out this Vine to see for yourself!

Instead of talking about his shiny, orange ensemble, Prince’s words are way more important. When announcing the nominees for Album of the Year, he said, “Like books and black lives, albums still matter.”

In typical Beyoncé fashion, her rendition of “Take My Hand, Precious Lord” was flawless. It led perfectly into Common and John Legend’s “Glory” performance.

A highlight of the night was John Legend and Common’s performance of “Glory.” The Selma tribute was a powerful statement that #BlackLivesMatter. Such a great way to close the show!
