Grammy Awards 2025: Lady Gaga, Bruno Mars Win Best Pop Duo/Group Performance

February 3, 2025: Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars’ Grammy win for Best Pop Duo/Group Performance with their song “Die With a Smile” was a special moment. The competition was fierce, with some major names like Beyoncé, Post Malone, Taylor Swift, and Billie Eilish in the running, so their win definitely felt significant.

Mars’ heartfelt speech acknowledging Gaga’s legacy was such a nice touch, and Gaga’s response was equally powerful. Her message to the LGBTQ+ community, especially her words about trans visibility and the importance of lifting up the queer community, really stood out. She’s always been such an advocate for inclusion and love, and it’s amazing to see her use her platform to keep pushing for positive change.

Their performance earlier in the night of “California Dreamin'” was a beautiful tribute to the victims of the Los Angeles wildfires, and then Gaga premiered “Abracadabra”, which added even more excitement to the evening. It’s clear that she’s not just celebrating her past accomplishments but continuing to innovate and share new music with her fans.

With so many remarkable wins throughout the night, like Shakira’s dedication to the immigrant community, Doechii’s breakthrough win in Best Rap Album, and Sabrina Carpenter’s victory in Best Pop Vocal Album, it felt like a celebration of diverse voices and stories in the music industry. Beyoncé’s historic win in the country music category was another groundbreaking moment that will be remembered for years to come.

It was a night of empowerment, celebration, and honoring the diverse artists who shape the music world.
