E’ stata ancora la cantautrice Alicia Keys la padrona di casa anche di quest’edizione 2020 dei “Grammys”, presentati la scorsa notte al loro 62esimo appuntamento sempre dallo “Staples Center” di Los Angeles. E, dal luogo simbolo di tante battaglie dei “Lakers”, la cerimonia di premiazione non poteva che aprirsi con il tributo al campione di basket appena scomparso, Kobe Bryant, precipitato ieri in un incidente in elicottero proprio in California, nel quale è deceduta con lui anche la figlia 13enne.. ricordato alla serata dalla splendida voce e cerimoniera sulle toccanti note della commovente.. “It’s So Hard to Say Goodbye”.

Un grammofono è stato conquistato anche dall’ex “first lady” Michelle Obama, sul palco anche lo scorso anno (QUI il vecchio post), per il suo audiolibro.. “Becoming”.. mentre tra le performances più attese vi era quella della coppia di “The Voice”.. Gwen Stefani e Blake Shelton.. ascoltata in duetto in “Nobody But You”.. con lei che ha sfilato al fianco e per mano al compagno di vita in Dolce & Gabbana..
