2020 Grammy Awards: The Full List Of Winners
The complete list of winners of the 62nd annual Grammy Awards, presented on Jan. 26, 2020, is below.
In the weeks leading up to this year's Grammys, the Recording Academy, which presents the awards, was embroiled in a controversy that became public when it announced on Jan. 16 that its recently appointed CEO, Deborah Dugan, had been put on administrative leave following an accusation of misconduct. A few days later, Dugan filed a discrimination complaint against the Academy that contained a wide range of accusations, one of which was vote rigging. You can read more about that story here.
