And we're literally standing here, heartbroken in the house that Kobe Bryant built. Right now Kobe and his daughter Gianna and all of those that have been tragically lost today are in our spirit. They're in our hearts. They're in our prayers. They're in this building. It's the most healing thing in the world, so let us get some healing going on right now with two beautiful people who want to share their love with all of us. My friends, Blake Shelton, and Gwen Stefani.OK, we're back. And here I am in my favorite place at the piano, where I always go when I need a little energy. And when I need a little, I need some good vibes, I come here. So let me — let me give us some background music. Because let me be honest with y'all.
And I mean we got the incredible Billie Eilish right here in this building. Right there. We got eight nominations and already a winner tonight. We have the magnificent Ariana right here in the building. You see us. You see us. Unstoppable. We get to be who we want to be. We get to be different. We get to be everything right now.
Jonas Brothers return, Billie and Finneas, Camila likes Sean to call her senorita, Ariana went next, Tyler brought us Igor, Lil Nas rode that road until he couldn’t no more. It’s the Grammys, gonna have a ball. Here’s Alicia Keys to get you through it all. If you like country or prefer Young Thug, I’m gonna get you kinda used to hearing music you love.
