With four golden gramophones, Rosalía became the great winner of the XXma Latin Grammy Awards that just took place in Las Vegas, Nevada.
The Spanish singer led the night's nominations for her award-winning album El mal querer and competed with her countryman, Alejandro Sanz and Fonseca as the artists with the most mentions of the night. Artists such as Juanes, Marc Anthony, Luis Fonsi, Sebastián Yatra, Anitta and J Balvin were also nominated for the gramophone in the different categories.
In the end it was the Catalan who took the most important awards of the night with the Album of the Year, Best Contemporary Vocal Album, Best Engineering of an Album, Best Packaging of an Album and Best Urban Song for "With Height", recorded alongside by J Balvin and El Guincho.
Ricky Martin, one of the three co-hosts of the night - together with Roselyn Sánchez and Paz Vega - was in charge of announcing the award with which Rosalía sealed her great triumph:
The XXth edition of the Latin Grammy was marked by the award for Person of the Year received by the Colombian Juanes and the Presidential award given to the Mexican Thalía who received the trophy from her friend, the Cuban producer Emilio Estefan.
Tributes and collaborations abounded, such as Pedro Capó's duet with Alicia Keys. The tribute to Celia Cruz de Olga Tañón with Milly Quezada. The tribute to Juan Gabriel with Carlos Rivera, Reik and Leonel García and the tribute to Joan Sebastian performed by Natalia Jiménez, Caliber 50 and Prince Royce. Ricky Martin joined the wave doing his thing with the classic "Light Music", which he performed alongside Beto Cuevas to pay tribute to the late singer-songwriter Gustavo Cerati. Others who shuddered were Ozuna and Sech with their live version of "Si te vas".
And those who pulled tears from the attendees were Don Vicente Fernández, his son Alejandro Fernández and his grandson Alex Jr., who united three artistic generations when interpreting the theme "I will love you".
Puerto Rican Bad Bunny - who by the way picked up the award for Best Urban Album of the Year with X 100Pre - closed the night with his peculiar style and interpreting the song “Callaíta”.
