Grammys 2019: The Coolest Beauty Looks We Saw on the Red Carpet

If the Oscars red carpet is where we look for the pinnacle of elegance and the Met Gala is where we look for jaw-dropping couture, the Grammys red carpet is where we turn for fashion and beauty that are just plain fun. In general, musicians tend to have the edgiest aesthetics of the entertainment bunch, so when the biggest night in music comes around, they really go for it, and we watch with bated breath to see what artists like Dua Lipa and Miley Cyrus do.
