Producers say her performance was never confirmed. https://variety.com/2020/music/news/ken-ehrlich-interview-2020-grammys-recap-kobe-bryant-alicia-keys-ariana-grande-1203483164/ — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:982:8380:4940:CDA0:E035:7867:5B48 (talk) 16:44, 28 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Eilish became the first artist to win the major four categories of Record of the Year, Album of the Year, Song of the Year, and Best New Artist in the same year since Norah Jones in 2003.

Not Christopher Cross in 1981.

@TheCommish9000: From what I found, Norah Jones technically didn't win Song of the Year as she didn't write any of "Don't Know Why". The award went to the sole lyricist Jesse Harris. Source. Nice4What (talk · contribs) – (Don't forget to share a Thanks ♥) 01:45, 29 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This article states at the top that Finneas won the most awards of the year with 6 wins, however at the bottom in the list that states how many awards each artist won it lists both him and Billie Eilish as having won only 5 awards. In the Grammy page for Finneas that was cited to say that he had 6 wins it says at the top of his page that he has 6 wins, however it only actually lists 5 awards that he has won. The math just ain't addin up

I would guess that there is a discrepancy amongst sources as to whether Billie's win for best new artist counts as a grammy award for Finneas as well, and that would be why some sources say he won 5 and some say 6. Regardless, the Wikipedia article for it should at least be consistent with itself. Chukulem (talk) 23:40, 27 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Actually I would maybe guess that the confusion stems from whether he would get a Grammy award for Billie Eilish winning best Pop Vocal Album (which it doesn't seem like he did), so I think the thing to do would be change it to that he and Billie were tied for most wins of the night at 5. Chukulem (talk) 23:51, 27 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Most reliable sources put his with 5 nominations and 5 wins. Per Grammy rules he is theoretically eligible for the 6th on the Pop Vocal, but is not listed as such. The Grammy site actually had him with 5 wins until sometime prior to August, although currently does not list him with more than five. There is no announcement/declaration of his sixth win, just assumed synthesis based on Grammy rules/guidelines.--☾Loriendrew☽ ☏(ring-ring) 00:38, 3 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I was also very confused about this. I distinctly remember the night of the awards it was widely reported that both Billie and Finneas received 5 awards, with pictures everywhere of them holding 5 awards each. The discrepancy does seem to be in the Pop Vocal Album category. Even on the Grammy website, it now shows him having 6 wins (including Pop Vocal Album), out of 8 nominations (but if you count the nominations, there are 9: six from last year and three from this upcoming year), so something must have changed relatively recently. Lastly, a screenshot of one of his instagram stories shows 6 Grammys in the background. RoshanMcG (talk) 05:30, 6 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I read on Public Enemy's Wikipedia page that they were honored with the Grammy's Lifetime Achievement Award at the 62nd Grammy Awards. Why isn't it listed on this page? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:703:4200:BA80:3895:866E:2002:74A5 (talk) 03:53, 6 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
