It was a night to remember as the biggest names in music celebrated the 66th annual Grammy Awards on Sunday, Feb. 4 at the Crypto.com arena in Los Angeles — and they did it in style.

Performances by the likes of Tracy Chapman, Joni Mitchell, Billy Joel and Annie Lennox left the audience in awe. Celine Dion presented Taylor Swift with the Grammy for Album of the Year, marking the first time any artist has won the category a record four times. Not to mention, stars including Miley Cyrus, Oprah Winfrey, Meryl Streep, Jay-Z, Mariah Carey and Olivia Rodrigo were seen jamming out in the crowd and catching up between live performances and commercial breaks.

Not every moment from the ceremony made it to the live broadcast. Standing ovations and behind-the-scenes camaraderie were also part of the show, which made the 2024 Grammys a testament to the power and beauty of music.

Here are some of the best moments you missed.
