2025 Grammys: Blue hearts, sequins, and outrageous red carpet moments
What's the story
The 67th annual Grammy Awards, hosted at the Crypto.com arena in Los Angeles on Sunday (US time), was not just a celebration of music but also a platform for fashion statements.
The event paid tribute to first responders and victims of LA's recent devastating wildfires.
Many celebrities chose to wear all-black outfits as a sign of solidarity, including Miley Cyrus in a cut-out leather Saint Laurent dress and Olivia Rodrigo in a slinky halter-neck Versace number.

Many guests wore blue heart pins to show their support for LA, including Brittany Howard, Jaden Smith, and Jacob Collier.
The pins were worn in support of MusiCares, a charity raising funds for music industry professionals affected by the wildfires.

Ye's wife, Bianca Censori's almost-criminal outfit!
The ceremony wasn't without its drama.
Ye's wife, Bianca Censori, caused a stir when she revealed a see-through slip dress that left little to the imagination.
