All the highlights, winners and best performances from the 2022 Grammy Awards

The 64th Grammy Awards ceremony has wrapped up in Las Vegas with some shock wins - and a few upsets.

Jazz pianist Jon Batiste was the big winner on the night, winning five awards including the coveted Album of the Year.

Comedian Trevor Noah hosted the awards show, originally meant to take place on January 31, for the second year in a row after it was postponed due to the rise of Omicron in the US.

Performers included BTS, Billie Eilish, Olivia Rodrigo, Chris Stapleton, H.E.R., and Lil Nas X with Jack Harlow. And there were some moving tributes to the late Foo Fighters drummer Taylor Hawkins and to Stephen Sondheim, among other artists we lost last year.

Foo Fighters made history with their three Grammy wins taking them to a total of 15 - the largest number ever won by an American band.

Despite winning a Grammy for Best Melodic Rap Performance, Kanye West did not perform at the event after being banned due to his "concerning online behaviour" towards his ex-wife Kim Kardashian and her boyfriend Pete Davidson.

Host Trevor Noah referenced the shocking moment at the Oscars last week when Will Smith attacked Chris Rock onstage for making a comment about his wife's appearance.

"We're gonna be listening to some music, we're gonna be dancing, we're gonna be singing, we're gonna be keeping people's names out of our mouths and we're gonna be giving out awards all throughout the night," he joked.

Meanwhile, Olivia Rodrigo picked up the awards for Best New Artist, Best Pop Solo Performance, and Best Pop Vocal Album.

But she missed out on the coveted Album of the Year, which went to Jon Batiste, and Song of the Year, awarded to Silk Sonic.

She wasn't the only one to be snubbed - Billie Eilish and Justin Bieber missed out completely on all their nominations.

Earlier, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy introduced a special performance for Ukraine from John Legend in a pre-taped message from a bunker.

"The war doesn't let us choose who survives and who stays in eternal silence. Our musicians wear body armour instead of tuxedos. They sing to the wounded in hospitals, even to those who can't hear them. But the music will break through anyway.

"On our land, we are fighting Russia which brings horrible silence with its bombs. The dead silence. Fill the silence with your music! Fill it today to tell our story. Tell the truth about his war on your social networks, on TV. Support us in any way you can. Any — but not silence. And then peace will come. "
