Even before the Grammy Awards ceremony began, Tony Bennett had already won. 

For his Lady Gaga duet Love For Sale, he was nominated for Album Of The Year at the 2022 Grammy Awards, making him the oldest artist ever to be nominated for an award in the general genre. 

For "Love For Sale", both Gaga and Bennett were nominated for Album Of The Year, Best Traditional Pop Vocal Album, Best Engineered Non-Classical Album, Record Of The Year, and Best Pop Duo/Group Performance. Bennett and Gaga fared well at the Grammy Awards on Sunday, taking home the Best Traditional Pop Vocal Album and Best Engineered Album, Non-Classical awards, respectively. 

Bennett is now 95 years and 243 days old, making him the second-oldest Grammy winner ever.

According to the Los Angeles Times, Pinetop Perkins, the Mississippi blues musician who won the Best Traditional Blues Album Grammy in 2011 for his album Joined At The Hip, was the only Grammy winner older than Bennett.

At the time of his triumph, he was 97 years and 221 days old, and he died on March 21. 

Gaga, on the other hand, performed a tribute to Bennett during the act. Bennett did not appear on stage with Gaga because he has retired from performing, but he did introduce her in a pre-recorded video.

There were three Grammy Awards won by "Drivers License" vocalist on Sunday, but only two of them are still in tact. 

During the 64th Annual Grammy Awards, Olivia Rodrigo posed for a picture in the winners' photo room. 

In the backstage chaos, 19-year-old Rodrigo, who had won three Grammys, broke one of her trophies that she had dropped. 

Photographers managed to capture her startled reaction

Prior to Rodrigo's next photo opportunity, she had the help of an assistant to put it back together. 

This is certainly reminiscent of the time Taylor Swift dropped one of her four Grammy Awards backstage at the 2010 Grammy Awards. 

 

The two singers could certainly use this material for a song they're working on in the future.

Before her big wins, Rodrigo spoke with ET's Kevin Frazier and Nischelle Turner on the red carpet, saying her focus was simply on being at her first GRAMMYs. 

"I'm just, like, genuinely so excited just to be here and to watch all of the performers," she told ET. "If I won one, that would just be something I couldn't even fathom."

Rodrigo proceeded to win Best New Artist, Best Pop Solo Performance for "drivers license," and Best Pop Vocal Album for "Sour."
