The Grammys makes history this year as all of the Best Rock Performance are women.

They are Fiona Apple’s Shameika, Phoebe Bridgers’ Kyoto, Haim’s The Steps, Brittany Howard’s Stay High, Grace Potter’s Daylight and Not by the band Big Thief.

Next year’s ceremony will look very different as the coronavirus pandemic continues to spread across the world.

Recording Academy interim president Harvey Mason Jr. has said that it’s likely the show will still be a live event with a limited number of attendees.

But, unfortunately for those of us who enjoy looking at the red carpet looks more than the nominees, there is unlikely to be a big crowd in attendance.

Mason has said the show would consider adding virtual elements and live performances from different locations.

Last year the big winner was Billie Eilish, who became first woman ever to win the big four awards.

Her track Bad Guy won Record Of The Year and Song Of The Year, and she also won best new artist.

Billie’s album When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go? also scooped Album Of The Year and Best Pop Vocal Album.
