The Grammy Awards - Results!

Not everyone can agree all of the time. It’s a simple fact, but it can be proven in many ways. Music, for example, is one of the most versatile things on the planet. There are so many different genres and styles for people to enjoy. That’s why The Grammys is the 2nd most viewed awards show after The Oscars. The Grammys is an annual awards show that celebrates all of the different aspects of the music industry. The categories range from BEST ALBUM OF THE YEAR to BEST MUSIC VIDEO OF THE YEAR to BEST CONTEMPORARY CLASSICAL COMPOSITION. This gives all parts of the music industry a time to shine. Not to mention the incredible performances made throughout the night. During the 2025 Grammys, artists Sabrina Carpenter, Billie Eilish, Benson Boone, Charlie XCX, Stevie Wonder and The Weekend all performed.
    The Grammys have a very wide audience; the students at North Cross were a part of that audience. Through a poll, students in Amy Jackson’s art classes answered questions about their opinion on the Grammy winners for certain categories. There has been a lot of skepticism with these category winners after the ceremony. Many people through social media and more have been expressing their disagreement with many of the winners of certain categories, and North Cross students proved to be a part of the group. 

Chappell Roan won BEST NEW ARTIST 2025 and our poll shows a variety of opinions on this. 
Ideas from students for who they believe deserved this award include Teddy Swims, Sabrina Carpenter and Benson Boone.

The winner of BEST RAP ALBUM 2025 was Deochii. Our poll showed interesting results for this category. Many people had no opinion on Deochii’s win, while the opinions for agreement and disagreement were almost tied. 

The two categories with the most uncertainty are BEST ALBUM OF THE YEAR and BEST COUNTRY ALBUM OF THE YEAR. Both of these categories were won by Beyonce with her album “Cowboy Carter”. A large majority of our voters replied that they Strongly Disagree or Disagree with these wins for Beyonce. 
Many people believed that other artists such as Billie Eilish, Taylor Swift and Andre 3000 should have won BEST ALBUM OF THE YEAR. 

​The suggestions for BEST COUNTRY ALBUM OF THE YEAR included Chris Stapelton and Lainy Wilson among others.

Another huge part about the Grammys is the red carpet. Celebrities dress in some of the most extravagant and unique outfits for this occasion. Our poll showed that there were many incredibly dressed celebs, but some worth noting are Olivia Rodrigo in her Versace Gown with 8.6% of our voters saying she was best dressed and Kai Cenat and Taylor Swift tying with 5.7%. Other astonishing outfits came from Lady Gaga in a goth look, Taylor Swift rocking a red dress, Raye with a glamorous black dress and Kendrick Lamar in a Denim duo.

​Grammy performances are also anxiously awaited all night. It’s the concert of all concerts. Some of our favorite performances include Billie Eilish performing “Birds of a Feather” from her album HIT ME HARD AND SOFT, Chappelle Roan singing “Pink Pony Club” and Benson Boone singing “Beautiful Things” with his iconic backflip.
