5 Notable Moments From The 2017 GRAMMY Awards
Buzzfeed

For anyone that's been living under a rock, the GRAMMYs are the absolute biggest night in music. The world gets to watch (and completely fangirl) as tons of celebrities dress up in the coolest of outfits, perform their most famous songs, and pay tribute to the greatest legacies in the industry. Needless to say, it's pretty special to watch it all go down! Here are 5 of the most notable moments from this year's GRAMMY Awards, and why they mean much more than you may think.

1. Adele's do-over.

During her tribute to the late George Michael, Adele messed up and requested to start the song over again. Showing us that the pros slip up too, Adele totally owned her mistake and surely made George Michael (and all of us watching from home) incredibly proud.

2. Bruno Mars' paid tribute to Prince.

Dressed in a symbolic purple jacket, Bruno Mars took the stage to acknowledge the lasting legacy of Prince. The performance, which was amazing in itself, demonstrates the huge impact the late legend continues to have on the entire industry.

3. Rihanna was classic Rihanna.

As always, Rihanna used her coverage at the GRAMMYs to prove to the world the total boss she really is. Openly drinking out of a bedazzled flask, Facetiming and dancing along to every song, Rihanna shows us the importance of fully being ourselves, no matter who's watching.

4. Beyonce reminded us all why she's Queen.

I mean, did you really expect anything less? Queen B slayed yet again with her unreal performance and her entire presence at the GRAMMYs in general. As if we needed any more reasons to freak out about the future arrival of her twins!!!

5. Chance the Rapper's big wins.

Chance took home the awards for Best New Artist, Best Rap Album and Best Rap Performance. The success of the unsigned rapper shows the world the power of being an individual and always staying true to yourself.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
