LOS ANGELES - The official after-party for the Grammy Awards was a tribute concert for Stevie Wonder.
Beyoncé, Lady Gaga, Pharrell and Annie Lennox were part of the all-star acts who paid tribute to the piano-playing icon at a concert on Tuesday night in Los Angeles, just days after the Grammys aired.
Beyoncé kicked off the event by walking up an aisle of the Nokia Theatre LA Live, singing Fingertips. Ed Sheeran joined the diva on Master Blaster (Jammin’).
The night was full of collaborative highlights: a trio of India.Arie, Janelle Monae and Jill Scott shone like a seasoned girl group; Pharrell and OneRepublic’s Ryan Tedder stretched their voices as high as possible; Babyface and Ariana Grande were soft on Signed, Sealed, Delivered I’m Yours; and Wonder’s daughter Aisha sang the song written about her, Isn’t She Lovely, with R&B singer Ne-Yo.
“I love you, Daddy,” Aisha said, moving to stand next to her father, who sat in the front row. Wonder ended the night with a medley of his songs and was joined on stage with all the performers and presenters for Happy Birthday.
