Did you miss the Grammys Sunday night? Here's a look back at the trendiest moments that still had people talking Monday.

Kanye almost didn't let him finish.

Kanye West's belief that Beyonce always deserves to win threw him into the spotlight again, literally.

When Beck was announced as the winner of the Album of the Year category, Kanye couldn't contain his disappointment, taking to the stage in protest.

Unlike Taylor Swift's win at the 2009 VMAs, though, he didn't steal the microphone.

Everyone had pretty good reactions to the moment, but perhaps no one was as amused as Beyonce.

Everyone swooned over Sam Smith's sweet acceptance speech.

Sam Smith, the undisputed winner of the evening, took home a win in three of the major categories. It was his acceptance speech that had everyone talking, though. He thanked his ex-boyfriend for breaking his heart, which inspired him to write his chart-topping hits.

The sentiment behind the "It's On Us" campaign was appreciated...

Katy Perry and domestic abuse survivor Brooke Axtell performed to bring awareness to the importance of ending domestic abuse.

Many found Axtell''s message to be so powerful that she was quoted across social media:

President Obama even joined in the message.

...but the execution was called into question.

Despite the support for the campaign, many social media users were upset at Chris Brown's presence, saying that the Grammys were sending a mixed message with his nomination. His name began trending with the "It's On Us" hashtag.

Kristen Wiig stood in for Sia.

"Chandelier" singer Sia, who suffers from stage fright, often finds creative ways to stay out of the spotlight. Sunday night she did it by getting an unexpected stand-in to dance with her young sidekick Maddie Ziegler: Kristen Wiig.

Queen B got soulful.

Beyonce made everyone momentarily forget about Kanye's antics with her powerful rendition of the gospel song, "Precious Lord, Take My Hand."
