The starry night that was Grammys 2021 is finally over. The award ceremony was quite different this year with very few artists present at the venue and host Trevor Nova engaging the audience on a live stream. We saw the likes of Billie Eilish, Megan Thee Stallion, Taylor Swift, Post Malone, Roddy Ricch attend the award night amongst others while several celebrities sat back at their homes to receive the award virtually. The ceremony took place at Los Angeles Convention Center, just opposite to the award show's usual home at the Staples Center.
