Three Hundred

In February of the beginning of the year, the 54th Grammys witnessed the birth of history. Adele got six out of six and swept six Grammy trophies. The history of female singers who won the most awards in a single session created years ago. Among them, the four comprehensive awards have won the other three trophies besides the newcomer of the year, and the gold content is even better than Beyoncé.

This also officially marks that the Grammys have completely opened the door to the new generation of young singers. Compared with the Oscars, which have become older and more conservative in recent years, and the Golden Globes, which have become more entertaining and water-filled, Grammy Beauty is always changing. In terms of adapting to the changes of the times while trying to maintain professionalism, Mei is slightly ahead of half a body, and is gradually seeing results——

In fact, there are still some controversies in the 54th Grammy. Some people accused the Grammy of being too "commercial" and always favoring singers with better sales data and better market performance. The Grammy is almost equal to It is the Billboard Awards, which completely loses its professionalism and authority, and refuses to give independent music more living space, which has violated the original intention of the awards.

Overall, the changes at the Grammys are visible to everyone. However, changes take time and cannot be accomplished overnight. They still need to be adjusted slowly. The awards ceremony itself has successfully won the love and support of the audience.

The most direct proof is that the awards ceremony that night attracted 39.9 million viewership records, only a hair's breadth away from 40 million. In 1999, Michael Jackson made history and swept eight Grammy trophies in a single awards ceremony, that glorious historical night.

Professionals believe that the reason for such brilliant ratings data is that, on the one hand, a tribute session was set up on the night of the awards ceremony to pay tribute to the tragically passed pop superstar Whitney-Houston. A big factor.

On the other hand, it is because Adele's "21" is indeed an important album to reverse the downturn in the music market, whether it is sales or discussion topics, all of them are like this. The results of the six mentions and six hits have caused controversy in some aspects, but in some aspects they have witnessed the market's love for this actress.

It can be seen from the distribution of the number of nominations:
