5 Notable Moments From The 2017 GRAMMY Awards
Buzzfeed

For anyone that's been living under a rock, the GRAMMYs are the absolute biggest night in music. The world gets to watch (and completely fangirl) as tons of celebrities dress up in the coolest of outfits, perform their most famous songs, and pay tribute to the greatest legacies in the industry. Needless to say, it's pretty special to watch it all go down! Here are 5 of the most notable moments from this year's GRAMMY Awards, and why they mean much more than you may think.

1. Adele's do-over.

During her tribute to the late George Michael, Adele messed up and requested to start the song over again. Showing us that the pros slip up too, Adele totally owned her mistake and surely made George Michael (and all of us watching from home) incredibly proud.

2. Bruno Mars' paid tribute to Prince.

Dressed in a symbolic purple jacket, Bruno Mars took the stage to acknowledge the lasting legacy of Prince. The performance, which was amazing in itself, demonstrates the huge impact the late legend continues to have on the entire industry.

3. Rihanna was classic Rihanna.

As always, Rihanna used her coverage at the GRAMMYs to prove to the world the total boss she really is. Openly drinking out of a bedazzled flask, Facetiming and dancing along to every song, Rihanna shows us the importance of fully being ourselves, no matter who's watching.

4. Beyonce reminded us all why she's Queen.

I mean, did you really expect anything less? Queen B slayed yet again with her unreal performance and her entire presence at the GRAMMYs in general. As if we needed any more reasons to freak out about the future arrival of her twins!!!

5. Chance the Rapper's big wins.

Chance took home the awards for Best New Artist, Best Rap Album and Best Rap Performance. The success of the unsigned rapper shows the world the power of being an individual and always staying true to yourself.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.

1. It's easy to be fooled by shiny things.

Tamatoa created a liar filled with shiny things simply for the purpose of tricking fish to enter and become his food. He too experiences a lesson in how easy it is to be tricked by shiny things when Moana distracts him by covering herself in glowing algae so Maui can grab his hook.
