British pop singer Dua Lipa has won Best New Artist tonight at the 61st Grammy Awards. She takes home the award over H.E.R., Jorja Smith, Margo Price, Chloe x Halle, Luke Combs, Bebe Rexha, and Greta Van Fleet.

In her acceptance speech, Dua Lipa alluded to outgoing Recording Academy President Neil Portnowโ€™s infamous โ€œstep upโ€ comments at last yearโ€™s Grammys. She said: โ€œWhere I want to begin is by saying how honored I am to be nominated alongside so many incredible female artists this year because I guess this year weโ€™ve really stepped up?โ€ Watch below.

In addition to Best New Artist, Dua Lipa was nominated for the 2019 Grammy Award for Best Dance Recording for โ€œElectricity,โ€ her collaboration with Mark Ronson and Diplo. Read more
