On Sunday evening, shortly after the stars of the big screen filed into London’s Royal Opera House for the Baftas, it was time to cast our eyes across the pond, where the Grammys were kicking off in their own unique style.
While the BAFTAS is often a safe zone, where stars don demure gowns and make noble speeches, the Grammys stage often plays host to unexpected turns of event.
Think Madonna flashing her bum, Kanye invading the stage (again), and Pharrell Williams giving Taylor Swift some serious side eye.
But what goes on backstage? When the cameras stop rolling, there’s the small matter of after-parties, selfies, celebratory drinks and um, more selfies.
Luckily, the stars of the music world are just as human as us, and within minutes, many of these snaps made it online.
Take a look at all the behind-the-scenes snaps below…
