Bruno Mars

People on social media were quick to react to the singer smoking on stage, which is highly unusual at an awards show. “Lmao! Bruno Mars lit up ...

Mars and Paak triumphed over Olivia Rodrigo’s breakout smash “Drivers License”, Billie Eilish’s “Happier Than Ever”, Tony Bennett and Lady Gaga’s rendition of “I Get a Kick Out of You” and six other contenders for Record of the Year. Silk Sonic won every award they were nominated for at this year’s Grammys, with four gongs for “Leave the Door Open”. Taking to the stage, Mars was filmed lighting up a cigarette while Paak accepted the award.

The single was up for four nominations including record and song of the year, best R&B performance and best R&B song. During the pre-awards ceremony, the duo ...

During the pre-awards ceremony, the duo won best R&B song and tied for best R&B performance with Jazmine Sullivan and her song, “Pick Up Your Feelings.” The single was up for four nominations including record and song of the year, best R&B performance and best R&B song. Silk Sonic made its debut at the 63rd Annual Grammy Awards and performed the single “Leave the Door Open” off its “An Evening with Silk Sonic” album in 2021.

The superduo won also won in the three other categories they were nominated in: Best R&B Song, Best R&B Performance, and Song of the Year.

Eillish would have won for the third year in a row, making her the first person to ever achieve that milestone — and the first artist to win the award three times unaccompanied. Daniel Cesar and Giveon's "Peaches"; Brandi Carlile's "Right on Time"; Doja Cat ft. But in the industry we call that a clean sweep," .Paak said at the mic, referencing their three other wins — for Best R&B Song, Best R&B Performance, and Song of the Year. "To all the other nominees, y'all know we love y'all. We love y'all! Drinks is on Silk Sonic tonight.

Silk Sonic members Bruno Mars and Anderson .Paak have earned several Grammys between them. But which artist has more?

Tune in to see these two powerhouses of music to see them perform as Silk Sonic and maybe even take home another piece of Grammy hardware. Considering how many artists go their entire careers without a single Grammy win, Anderson and Mars are certainly at the top of their respective games. Bruno Mars and Anderson .Paak go way back. Bruno Mars and Anderson .Paak each paved their way in the music industry as fan-favorite and chart-topping solo artists. And you may be wondering how many Grammys Mars and Anderson already have? And when the two superstar artists joined forces to collaborate under the duo name Silk Sonic last year, fans can expect big things.

Bruno Mars attended the Grammy Awards as part of Silk Sonic, but it was his individual behavior at the end of the night that has fans confused.

Twitter users even joked that things could have gone south, like a certain slap-tastic event at 2022's Oscars ceremony. In fact, in an unusual turn of events, it wasn't what he said on stage that left a bad impression, but rather something he did. Another highlight of the duo's Grammy night was host Trevor Noah poking fun by asking .Paak a string of questions while ignoring Mars. The comedian then quipped, "We don't talk about Bruno!" referencing the hit song from Disney's "Encanto." Mars had a solid acting moment as he played upset, but he quickly broke a smile once the bit was over.

Keep refreshing and stand by a for a full list of winners. Ukrainian president Zelenskyy did give a beautiful speech tonight tailored just to the Grammys. Watch it below. The Grammys offered maybe the most perfect In Memoriam segment in ages, a tribute culminating in a finale to Stephen Sondheim. Ben Platt, Cynthia Erivo, Leslie Odom Jr, and Rachel Zegler sang a medley of Sondheim songs and it was outstanding.

During the pre-awards ceremony, the duo won best R&B song and tied for best R&B performance with Jazmine Sullivan and her song, “Pick Up Your Feelings.” The single was up for four nominations including record and song of the year, best R&B performance and best R&B song. Silk Sonic made its debut at the 63rd Annual Grammy Awards and performed the single “Leave the Door Open” off its “An Evening with Silk Sonic” album in 2021.

Within minutes of their performance, Bruno Mars and Anderson .Paak's two-man act won the award for Song of the Year.

“Even if you don’t have a girlfriend, they just stole her from you,” Noah quipped after the duo’s performance. And within minutes of their performance, Silk Sonic won the award for Song of the Year. The song then won Record of the Year later in the night. Deal for me.”

He's prevailed for "Uptown Funk" (2016), "24K Magic" (2018) and "Leave the Door Open" (2022).

Record of the Year was a tight race this year with “Drivers License” by Olivia Rodrigo and “Happier Than Ever” by Billie Eilish also in contention. And he could continue that winning streak in 2023 when the rest of Silk Sonic’s album, “An Evening with Silk Sonic,” is eligible for recognition. But voters have a soft spot for Mars. He swept his nominations this year, and he swept all six of his nominations the last time he was up for Grammys in 2018. Neither Mars nor Simon is the all-time biggest individual winner for Record of the Year, though. Simon won two Record of the Year titles as one half of a music duo, just as Mars did on April 3. The Grammys adore Bruno Mars. After the 2022 Grammys aired on Sunday night, April 3, his total awards haul over the course of his career rose to 15.

Bruno Mars and Anderson .Paak, known together as Silk Sonic, took home the prize for songwriting over Olivia Rodrigo and Billie Eilish, among others.

Referring to .Paak by his nickname, Mars told Times pop music critic Mikael Wood in February, “Andy had been performing and I’d been performing, and then it all went away” with the pandemic. Separately, both Mars and .Paak have been generously rewarded by the Recording Academy over the last decade. There, wearing matching orange leisure suits and polyester shirts with collars as wide as the 405, Mars and .Paak seduced viewers as if they had time-traveled from 1974.

The singer, 36, took home the gong as part of R&B supergroup Silk Sonic - which comprises of Bruno and rapper Anderson .Paak.
