She hit the stage wearing a black t-shirt featuring an image of Hawkins as she performed her hit song.

As she performed her hit song, rain fell from the MGM Grand Garden Arena as she finished the song strong.

The drummer’s death sent shockwaves throughout the music industry, also leading to the Foo Fighters pulling out of their planned performance at the Grammys.

Hawkins was found unresponsive at the Casa Medina hotel in Bogota, Colombia and later pronounced dead on March 25, at just 50 years of age.

While no cause of death was given at the time, a toxicology report came back and revealed he had a number of drugs in his system.

Among the drugs found in his system were opioids, benzodiazepines, tricyclic antidepressants and THC.

She’s up for three of the biggest awards of the night, known as The Big Four – Record of the Year, Album of the Year and Song of the Year, with Olivia Rodrigo already winning the fourth of the Big Four, Best New Artist.
