The Grammys kicked off with a little R-E-S-P-E-C-T
as an all-star group of divas paid tribute to maybe the greatest diva of all, the Queen of Soul, Aretha Franklin.
Sisters and the ladies were definitely getting it done.
Country trio Lady Antebellum had a huge night, winning five trophies including the top two: Record and Song of the Year for "Need You Now."
Another lady, Gaga, picked up a trio of trophies after arriving on the red carpet inside an egg, then belting out her new song, "Born This Way."
Rihanna and Drake's sizzling duet is sure to spark rumors they're a couple,
while on the tamer side,
C-Lo Green teamed up with Gwenyth Paltrow and some fuzzy friends for a TV-friendly take on his hit, "F*** You."
Bob Dylan growled out his tune, and Barbara Streisand proved her voice was still "Evergreen."
For old and young alike it was a night of firsts.
Mick Jagger had never sung at the Grammys before;
neither had teen phenom Justin Bieber, who shockingly didn't win any Grammys.
But an even bigger shock was Canadian rockers Arcade Fire winning the coveted Album of the Year award.
Even they couldn't believe it.
It was a surprise ending for a Grammy show with something for every generation.
