For the record: SamSmith and KimPetras' epic Grammys performance lives in our mind rent free
Both pop singers took the Grammys stage on Sunday for a devilish duet of “Unholy,” their sultry,about a messy extramarital affair. The performance kicked off with an introduction from none other than Madonna, who complimented Smith and Petras for “forging a new path and taking the heat for all of it.” That’s high praise coming from one of pop music’s most revered provocateurs.
We then caught our first glimpse of a scantily clad Petras, who sang her verse from inside a giant cage. As if that weren’t scandalous enough, she was surrounded by an entourage of corseted dominatrixes,stars Violet Chachki and Gottmik, and backed by jaw-dropping, hell-inspired pyrotechnics. Earlier in the evening, “Unholy” won Best Pop Duo/Group Performance, beating out the likes of Camila Cabello and Ed Sheeran , Post Malone and Doja Cat , and ABBA . While accepting the Grammy, Smith passed the mic to Petras, who noted the deeply personal significance of their historic win.
Petras shouted out her mother, who supported her when she first came out as trans, and Madonna, one of her early inspirations. She also thanked her late friend Sophie, a visionary hyperpop artist and producer whotwo years ago. “Sophie told me this would happen,” she said, tearing up. “Thank you, Sophie.”
