YES, Rihanna.

While the superstar didn't win big at the Grammys last night, she undoubtedly had a great evening… with the help of a hip flask.

Yep, like a lot of us who bring a shneaky naggin into *da club*, Riri brought a diamond-encrusted flask with her to the awards show and shared it among her friends.

The singer even posted a video of her getting caught, telling her mate, "I think it's time for another shot."

And of course, everyone absolutely loved her for it:

The last time we were told Beyoncé deserved an award more than its recipient was when Kanye West relieved a stunned Taylor Swift of her MTV Moon Man back in 2009, and insisted the Single Ladies singer had been robbed of the accolade.

Thankfully, this time around, the person doing the insisting was the same person who actually received the gong – the only and only Adele.

After winning a Grammy for Album of the Year last night, the Londoner paid tribute to Beyoncé who shed tears from her seat in the audience as she listened to the When We Were Young singer gush over Lemonade.

And while the vast majority of us celebrated Adele's unbridled adoration for Queen Bey, some corners of Twitter are a little more cynical.

From suggesting Adele mentioned Beyoncé in order to avoid being considered racist (say what?) to others insisting Beyoncé didn't deserve the praise, not everyone was as impressed by the heartfelt speech as the rest of us.

We'll let Twitter take it from here…

It looks like the Grammy Awards are going to have a hard time even getting their nominees to the door this year!

According to recent reports, a few A-list celebrities are going to boycott the awards ceremony on February 12.

TMZ is reporting that Justin Bieber, Kanye West and Drake have no intentions to go to the awards show, and they all actually plan on being somewhere else on the day.

A source told the website that Justin believes the Grammys just aren't "relevant" anymore.

"He just doesn't think the Grammys are relevant or representative, especially when it comes to young singers.

"There's no real anger, it's just that a lot of younger singers think the Grammys are out of touch and arguably irrelevant," they added.

There's no denying that the Kardashian-West/ Swift feud – which has been bubbling under the surface for years, but officially kicked off on Sunday night – has become somewhat of a soap opera.

From daily plot twists to unexpected cameos, the public – whether they want it or not – have been drip-fed new information every day since Kim Kardashian indirectly initiated the TaylorSwiftIsOverParty.

And despite the press, public and fans weighing in from all corners, we had yet to get an insight into what finally pushed Kim over edge, and compelled her to leak that footage… until now, that is.

According to a source who spoke to Us Weekly, Taylor's Grammy speech where she appeared to throw shade at Kanye was the last straw for his furious wife.

"There are going to be people along the way who try to undercut your success or take credit for your accomplishments or your fame" and "if you just focus on the work and you don’t let those people side track you, someday when you get where you’re going," Taylor urged her audience at the time.

Furious that the Shake It Off singer was blasting her husband publicly, Kim decided to take action.

"They wouldn't have released that tape had she not dedicated her Grammys speech to bashing Kanye for something she was aware of," the insider revealed.

"Kim is glad that the truth is out there. Kim was sick of it for them, for their kids, for everyone who believes in them, and she was not going to let people take Kanye down," they continued.

But if you were hoping for a sequel in this saga, you'll likely be disappointed if Kimye have anything to do with it.

"Kim and Kanye hope that one day they can make up with Taylor," the insider confirmed. "They aren't interested in having this beef."

Hmmm, they mightn't be…but Taylor might…

Khloé Kardashian, Christian Bale and Taylor Swift – they're just some of the people Amy Schumer has been poking fun at of late, but one jibe in particular didn't go down too well.

The comedienne and actress has forged her career on taking the idea of female beauty and femininity and turning it on its head, and she attempted to do just that with a recent Instagram post directed at Taylor. Now though, she's been forced to apologise for it.

Amy's brand of humour didn't go down too well with the legions of Swift fans who accused her of "skinny shaming" the singer with a photo captioned, "Taylor that's not a thigh gap. This is a thigh gap," posted on Monday night.

The photo, which shows Amy and fellow comedy star Bridget Everett in their bikinis, seems to have been a dig at Taylor's Grammy ensemble, a two-piece dress with a thigh-high slit.

Taking to Instagram again today, Amy made an attempt at an apology, though she certainly didn't seem too happy to be doing it.

"That's not a beard this is a beard," she wrote alongside a snap of herself with a blonde wig and a face full of fake stubble. 

"So sorry to anyone with a beard this may offend. I am a comic and should never make fun of myself at the expense of anyone else that I wasn't making fun of in the first place #relax #beard."

She referenced the drama again later on, posting a meme showing the famous Simpsons "That's not a knife, this is a knife," quote with the caption, "So sorry to anyone with a different size knife too."

As for Taylor, she's been dealing with drama from several different sources this week – in her Grammys Album Of The Year acceptance speech she made a thinly veiled dig at Kanye West for his claim that he "made that b*tch [Taylor] famous."

Speaking to the audience on Monday night, Taylor said, "There are going to be people along the way who are going to try to undercut your success or take credit for your accomplishments or your fame… you'll look around and you will know that it was you and the people who love you who put you there."

While we all adore Adele eternally, we have to admit that her performance of new single All I Ask at the Grammys this week was not her best. 

But no one is more aware of that fact than Adele herself. 

From audio issues to some pitching problems, the Hello singer was the first person to admit that she was not at all happy with her performance. 

"I cried pretty much all day yesterday," the 27-year-old revealed to Ellen DeGeneres today. 

"I kept like spontaneously bursting into tears yesterday. But it was alright. I was fine."

And in true Adele form, the singer laughed about the whole thing and has taken the criticism on the chin. 

"I don’t feel like it could go that much worse than the Grammys, so I feel like I’m alright now. Anything that happens, dust it off.

"If it wasn’t live TV I would have busted a joke, but because it was, I couldn’t make the disaster my own."

After the performance Adele took to Twitter to explain the audio issues. 

"The piano mics fell on to the piano strings, that's what the guitar sound was. It made it sound out of tune. Shit happens," she tweeted before revealing that she had treated herself to a burger after the performance. 

And we all would have done the exact same.

We live for the red carpets of awards season here at SHEmazing! towers and we love to see a dire outfit as much as we like to see our favourite celebrities nail it. 

While there was certainly a number of standout looks, the talented folk of the music business sure did not hold back when it came to the red carpet fashion at the Grammys last night. 

And while some just about pulled it off, others simply did not. 

From the abundance of glittery and kitsch patterns to the classic women's suit, there was plenty to talk about from last night's show. 

Here are our most intriguing looks of the night: 

1) Selena Gomez flaunted her figure with head-to-toe glitter and peek-a-boo cutouts 

2) Lady Gaga channelled classic Gaga with a touch of David Bowie for a predictably bonkers ensemble 

3) Zendaya's crumpled suit and faux- mullet gave us literal nightmares (proving you can't get it right EVERY time) 

4) Bella Hadid and the Weeknd made their red carpet debut as a couple donning black, black and some more black 

5) Florence Welsh channelled Amish housewife meets children's colouring book 

6) Someone called Z La La went gaga for Battlestar Galactica 

7) Adele covered up her famous curves in a dowdy, black number 

8) Ellie Goulding gave us snooze-fest from the front and sheer glamour from the back 

9) Demi Lovato served us sexy suit-realness and we can't tell whether hers or Zendaya's is worse 

10) Chrissy Teigan made being pregnant look like a total cake-walk 

11) Taylor Swift gave us ample skin and a new 'do but we can't decide if we love it or loathe it 

12) Ariana Grande served us old Hollywood glamour 

13) Bey served wedding-dress-of-our-dreams 

14) And even though Justin wore a questionable white blazer, he brought his little bro as his date so all is forgiven

Justin Bieber has been working on an image overhaul for the last year or so, but his sense of style still leaves a LOT to be desired.

The 21-year-old is generally seen in oversized tank tops, jeans and massive baseball caps – and even on the red carpet he tends to get it a bit off the mark.

Case in point has to be last night's Grammys, when the Where Are U Now singer showed up in a pretty dull monochrome outfit.. a far cry from his ex Selena Gomez's breathtaking appearance in a sequined sapphire blue number.

Justin's shirt-and-suit-pants outfit, combined with the faint hint of a blond mustache, earned him a fair bit of stick online – in particular from Irish comedians The Rubberbandits.

"Justin Bieber went to the Grammys looking like a leaving cert student who just got a job collecting glasses in a Monaghan nightclub," the lads wrote in a Facebook post which has already racked up a whopping 31,000 likes since it was posted early this morning.

"That's a massive insult to leaving cert students in Monaghan," one sly-tongued commenter wrote, with another adding, "It beats going to the Grammys looking like Justin Bieber."

Thankfully Biebs had an outfit change before he headed on stage to perform Love Yourself and Where Are U Now in front of a jampacked audience of celebrities.

However we can't help but noticing that he's still in desperate need of a shave…

A new Irish-American coupling could be on the cards – well, at least if a certain Oscar-less actor gets his way.

Leonardo DiCaprio was celebrating into the wee hours of Monday morning after scooping the Best Actor nod at the BAFTAs on Sunday, and he invited one very familiar Irish face to party alongside him.

According to sources in The Sun, Irish MTV presenter Laura Whitmore caught Leo's eye early on in the night, and was invited back to his penthouse suite at London's Rosewood Hotel for an all-nighter.

"Leonardo was completely taken by Laura," an insider claimed. 

"She was playing it cool but he made a beeline for her and they instantly started flirting.

"She loved the attention and they were all over each other, getting on like a house on fire."

Ms. Whitmore wasn't the only beauty present for Leo's celebratory party – supermodel Lily Donaldson is also said to have showed up – but Laura was certainly getting most of his attention, according to the source.

"He [Leo] was all over Laura until well after 5am," they said. "At one point he held her face in his hand."

Of course, while Leo might have fallen for the Bray native, we can't forget that she is still presumably in a relationship with rocker Rory Williams, who she has been seeing since last autumn.

However given how determined she is to keep her private life out of the media, there's no knowing if the pair are indeed still an item.

"I don't like talking about things, as you know, with personal stuff, because it is no one else's business," Laura said in a recent interview. 

"That's what my friends are for."

Laura has yet to address the Leo story on social media, but her rep did weigh in, telling the Irish Mirror that the claims of her "spending the night" with him were false.

"She was with a group of people who were all part of the BAFTA celebrations at no point did she spend the night with him."

Looks like we'll need to watch this space…

When Taylor cut off her trademark long curls circa 2012 and revealed her messy, long bob, we were already halfway to the hairdressers to get the exact same look. 

However, we're not sure we will be rushing out the emulate her latest style which she debuted last night at the Grammys. 

Sporting a barely there crop top and flowing satin skirt, the star has chopped her locks up into a very short, structured bob with a full fringe.

Maybe she is celebrating the end of her 1989 tour and embarking into the next phase of her music, but it seems fans and internet trolls alike were divided by the drastic new 'do. 

Some just downright hated everything about Taylor's new look… 

Others just had to laugh about it…

Some stated the obvious…

While others just could not deal…

Others began to question EVERYTHING…

But many of Tay's dedicated fans simply LOVED it…

From audio fails and slaying speeches to last minute cancellations, the Grammy Awards certainly did not fail to deliver in the entertainment stakes last night. 

Topping headlines this morning was Taylor Swift who not only made history by being the first woman to win Album of the Year twice at the prestigious awards ceremony but also for taking the time to slam Kanye in her acceptance speech. 

Last week Kanye debuted a song at his fashion showcase in New York which included the lyrics: "I made that bitch famous" in reference to Tay. 

Taking to the stage with a new cropped hairstyle, Taylor, who had remained quiet on social media since the incident, was quick to defend herself. 

"I want to say to all the young women out there – there are going to be people along the way who are going to try to undercut your success or take credit for your accomplishments or your fame."

Yas, queen!

Another young female singer who was expected to steal the show was Adele, but after suffering from audio and pitch problems during her performance of All I Ask, fans were left wanting.

Adele took to Twitter to explain the issues: "The piano mics fell on to the piano strings, that's what the guitar sound was. It made it sound out of tune. Shit happens."

While Rihanna had to cancel a performance of her new material due to an infection, Lady Gaga took to the stage channelling the late David Bowie as she donned a sparkly catsuit and bright orange hair. 

Adopting Bowie's infamous Ziggy Stardust persona, the You and I singer bashed out a medley of the late singer's greatest hits including Heroes, Space Oddity and Let's Dance

However, the performance is garnering a certain amount of criticism with fans saying she was trying "too hard" while David Bowie's own son Duncan Jones seemed to tweet a comment that was thinly veiled with sarcasm. 

In the awards stakes, Ed Sheeran has something to cheer about as he won his first Grammy for the song Thinking Out Loud

Justin Bieber also took home his first award while Kendrick Lamar swept away the competition taking home a total of five awards on the big night. Marc Ronsen and Bruno Mars also had a rather successful evening as Uptown Funk swept up two gongs including Record of the Year.

He might be one of the most famous singers, but good ol' Ed Sheeran can't help but get drunk at fancy gatherings.

As award season has officially begun, Ed admitted that he likes nothing more than a few beers before the show because he thinks that he's not going to win. 

Talking about the Grammys, Ed said that he's spent the last three shows drunk on the free booze.

"I wasn't going to attend even after being nominated, because I've been the last three years and always lost. I know I'm not going to win so I get smashed before."

Mr Sheeran is up for two awards this year, and we're all counting on him to win; but if he doesn't, he's made an ultimatum for the show.

He told The Sun: "It's going to be sod's law that this would be the year I get it if I didn't go.

"So, I'm going to go and if I don't get it, I won't go again."
