Billie Eilish swept the Grammys this year, but she didn't think she deserved to win as many awards as she did. In her Album of the Year acceptance speech, Eilish went so far as to say that actually, Ariana Grande deserved the award for Thank U, Next. The camera caught Grande's reaction from the audience, and it said a lot about Grande's character—and how much she adores Eilish. Grande waved off the notion completely and blew Eilish a kiss. (Grande was also wearing a new green outfit, her third look of the night.) Eilish told Grande, "I think it [Thank U, Next] deserves [Album of the Year] like more than anything in the world. I love you so much."

It's definitely surprising, given that the country star was in the running for not one, but two awards. Her hit song "It All Comes Out in the Wash" was up for Best Country Song, and she was also nominated for Best Country Album for Pistol Annies' 2018 record, Interstate Gospel. So what gives? http://instagram.com/p/B7wigB7HDyZ Many speculated that she might have had a hard time watching her ex-husband Blake Shelton and his girlfriend Gwen Stefani take the stage to belt out their romantic duet, "Nobody But You." What's more, she was busy celebrating her first anniversary with husband Brendan McLoughlin this past Sunday. She posted a photo of the two of them on Instagram to mark the occasion. http://instagram.com/p/B7ywEtJHMbG "I’m so happy to walk through this life with you," she captioned the sweet post. "Thank you Brendan for making me the proudest wife and stepmom. You are the reason for all my new smile lines. I love you. #MrsMcLoughlin"

The Grammys were an eventful night and fans cannot stop talking about Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton's performance. First off, people are still roasting it for being a little awkward. But we're not here to talk about how some fans didn't want to hear Gwen sing if the letters B-A-N-A-N-A-S weren't coming out of her mouth. No, we're here to talk about how Gwen and Blake hinted they are married or are super close to getting married while walking the red carpet and singing “Nobody but You” during the ceremony. If you didn't catch the show, know that Blake showed up wearing a black suit that "doesn’t NOT resemble a tux" to Country Living. And Gwen wore thigh-high white leather boots and a short white dress with floral embellishments. For their duet, Blake changed into a different suit and Gwen wore a floor-length white gown with a red heart design. Are you sensing the theme? It was very bridal. And instead of a veil, Gwen sported a rose headpiece. Outfits aside, the lyrics to the song were also incredibly intimate and made it sound like these two are already headed for the altar. They sang, "I don’t want to look back in 30 years and wonder who you’re married to...I want to say it now, I want to make it clear for only you and God to hear," which, I mean, sound like vows, no? The fans certainly think so!

A British man who was seated next to Billie Eilish at the Grammys said he only discovered who she was just a few days before the event, but is now "such a fan." Terry George from Leeds was given the opportunity of a lifetime when he was chosen to be a seat-filler at music's biggest night, then he struck gold again when he was put right next to the 18-year-old star. "It was just serendipity really, I didn't know that that was going to be where I would be sitting and on top of that I didn't even know that she was going to be up there claiming those awards at the same time," George told Insider. But until recently, the Leeds businessman said he didn't understand why Eilish was so big. "When I heard the name over a year ago, I thought it was 'Billie Irish' and it was a standup comedian from [Ireland]," George told Insider.
