LOS ANGELES - Lizzo on Sunday won the Grammy for Record of the Year -- the award honoring overall performance of a song -- for her single "About Damn Time," besting a crowded field including Beyonce and Adele.

Scoring the prize is something of a comeback for Lizzo, who was widely tipped to be the big winner in 2020 but lost all her chances at a major award to pop phenom Billie Eilish. - AFP
