THE BLACK KEYS dominated most of last night's Grammys, but they didn't come away with the Album of the Year award. That went to the MUMFORD & SONS for their album, "Babel".
The Black Keys disc "El Camino" did win Best Rock Album, and their single "Lonely Boy" won Best Rock Song and Best Rock Performance. Black Keys singer DAN AUERBACH also won Producer of the Year (Non-Classical).
"Lonely Boy" didn't get Record of the Year. That went to GOTYE'S overexposed hit, "Somebody That I Used to Know". FUN. won Best New Artist, and their single "We Are Young" was named Song of the Year.
FRANK OCEAN beat CHRIS BROWN in the Best Urban Contemporary Album category . . . and Frank was back onstage when JAY-Z and KANYE WEST'S "No Church in the Wild" won Best Rap / Sung Collaboration.
In country, the title track off CARRIE UNDERWOOD'S album "Blown Away" won Best Country Solo Performance, and Best Country Song.

TAYLOR SWIFT opened the Grammys with a performance of "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together". And she may have taken a shot at her ex-boyfriend HARRY STYLES of ONE DIRECTION.
During one part of the song, Taylor said, quote, "So he calls me up and he's like, 'I still love you'" . . . and she used a BRITISH accent.

JUSTIN BIEBER was the host and musical guest on "Saturday Night Live" this weekend. And he may have used one of his sketches to apologize for getting caught smoking pot earlier this year.
It was during one of those great "Miley Cyrus Show" sketches. Justin wasn't playing himself, but Miley's #1 fan.
He was DISSING Justin Bieber, but then he said, quote, "I also heard he got busted for smoking weed. And he's really sorry about it. And people make mistakes. And he's never gonna do it again."
