This year's Grammy Award for Album of the Year was won by Beyonce, while Billie Eilish, Taylor Swift and Charli XCX were among stars who missed out on the top spot. Prior to the 67th Grammy Awards, a leak had teased the winner of the category. Gold Derby, an authority in awards show coverage and predictions, had suggested the Album of the Year winner. They claimed the award was set to go to Billie Eilish's Hit Me Hard and Soft or Beyonce's Cowboy Carter. Both albums have received four votes each from Gold Derby's experts and editors.
The prediction meant stunned fans of Taylor Swift, who were expecting her to lift the gong for her latest latest album The Tortured Poets Department. Her record-breaking concert film The Eras Tour was already overlooked in the Best Music Film category, despite being the highest-grossing concert film of all time. This year's event took place once again at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles. Trevor Noah was again on hand to take on the hosting duties. It marked his fifth successive hosting sting on the annual bash. The comedian is best known for hosting Comedy Central’s The Daily Show between 2015 to 2022.
This year's telecast on CBS was also raising funds to support relief efforts after wildfires devastated the Grammys' hometown. Here is the full list of the Grammy Award 2025 winners and nominations:.
