Charli XCX has won a clutch of early prizes at the 2025 Grammys.

The British star took home the gongs for Best Dance/Pop Album for her club album Brat; and Best Dance/Pop Song for its lead single Von Dutch.

They are the Cambridge-born star's first Grammys as a solo act.

Sabrina Carpenter won the first Grammy Award of the night, taking home Best Pop Solo Performance for her summer anthem, Espresso.

Sierra Ferrell won three straight Grammys - Best Americana Performance, Best American Roots Song, then Best Americana Album for Trail of Flowers.

"Honestly this is hilarious," she joked as she came back for a third time, having just left the stage.

The prizes were among the first awards handed out at the Grammys' premiere ceremony, which precedes the main event at 5pm Los Angeles / 1am London time.

The show kicked off with a rendition of Simon & Garfunkel's Bridge Over Troubled Water, dedicated to the victims of the LA Wildfires.

Grammys CEO Harvey Mason Jr told the audience that the awards would "honour music's great power to inspire, to heal and to unite".

He added: "Because of the recent fires that devastated Los Angeles, we're also going to recognise the resilience of our community and celebrate our first responders and do our very best to lift up this city that we love."
