Bad Bunny makes Grammy Awards history as stars protest against ICE

Bad Bunny has become the first Latin artist to win album of the year in the 68-year history of the Grammy Awards, at a ceremony where dozens of stars railed against the Donald Trump administration’s US immigration crackdown.

The 31-year-old, who will headline next week’s Super Bowl half-time show, dedicated the award to immigrants who “leave their home, land, their country, to follow their dreams”.

British singer Olivia Dean, who was named best new artist, also used her speech to defend immigrants.

“I’m up here as the granddaughter of an immigrant,” said the singer, whose grandmother Carmen was part of the Windrush generation of immigrants in the UK.

Stars including Kehlani, Gloria Estefan and Billie Eilish also spoke in support of immigrants, while many musicians wore badges reading “ICE out” on the red carpet.
