Later backstage, the British singer elaborated on her thoughts.

When awkwardly being asked about receiving the same amount of attention by Knowles as her famous older sister, Solange responded: “I think that her love and support for both of us has been a beautiful love story and we continue to honor”.

After her last year’s Grammy performance was dampened by an unfortunate technical glitch, Adele returned to the Grammy stage-stronger and better than ever.

Best pop vocal album: “25”, Adele. This is the second straight year she has encountered a glitch due to technical issues.

Beyonce, 35, had gone into Sunday’s awards show with a leading nine nominations for her powerful “Lemonade” album about race, feminism, and betrayal.

Addressing Bey in the audience, Adele said: “I can’t accept this award because, for me, Beyonce, Lemonade was awesome”.

“We got to see another side to you that we don’t always see”.

Solange wasn’t the only person surprised that Beyoncé – who is expecting twins, missed out, so was the victor Adele, who split her Grammy in half to share with the star. In her acceptance speech, she mentioned her black friends which started the social media fury of those who heard her speech.

Ocean’s post came as a direct response to Ken Ehrlich and David Wild, two members of the Grammys’ creative team, who addressed the Channel Orange singer’s notable absence from the prestigious awards show in an interview with Rolling Stone. The duo TWENTY ØNE PILØTS won Best Pop Duo/Group Performance for their song Stressed Out.

“Create your own committees, build your own institutions, give your friends awards, award yourself, and be the gold you wanna hold my g’s”. The rapper later won best rap album, making him the first artist with a streaming-only album to win a Grammy.

Adele had specifically requested to perform Fastlove, one of George Michael’s 1990s hits, at the ceremony.

In the event, singer Bruno Mars paid tribute to music icon Prince, replicating style, costumes and guitar of Prince’s.

“Make some noise for Prince y’all”, Mars yelled to a raving audience.

“To be honest, the idea of a “trophy girl” has felt antiquated for some time now”, said Neil Portnow, president of the Recording Academy.

Tribute David Bowie was awarded five posthumous gongs at the Grammys. And his son Duncan Jones was filled with pride as he shared a sweet Twitter tribute on Monday
