Trivia

• OutKast's Speakerboxxx/The Love Below became the first and only rap album to date to win Album of the Year. It was also the second hip-hop album to win Album of the Year, following Lauryn Hill's R&B album, The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill.
• Beyoncé became the fourth female artist to win a record five awards in one night. Prior to Beyoncé, Norah Jones, Alicia Keys and Lauryn Hill had won five in one night. Since 2004 Amy Winehouse and Alison Krauss became the fifth and sixth artists respectively to tie this record. Beyoncé was the only one of these six artists to not win a general field award out of her five wins. In the 2010 ceremony, Beyoncé broke both of these records, earning six awards and winning Song of the Year, a general field award, for her song ”Single Ladies (Put A Ring On It)”. This record was later tied by British singer Adele in 2012.
• Justin Timberlake apologized for the Super Bowl halftime show the past week in his acceptance speech that night. However, Janet Jackson does not appear at the event.
• As Evanescence were presented with the award for Best New Artist, rapper 50 Cent went up to the stage. 50 Cent was nominated for Best New Artist, losing to Evanescence.
• Luther Vandross won four awards however he was unable to attend due to a stroke he suffered several months earlier. Celine Dion sang his song "Dance With My Father" with Richard Marx playing piano in tribute to Vandross. The song was awarded the award for Song of the Year later that night. During the show they showed a videotaped clip that was pre-taped of him saying "Whenever I say goodbye it's never for long because I believe in the power of love". Vandross died the following year in 2005.
• Warren Zevon who died in September 2003 was awarded two posthumous awards: Best Contemporary Folk Album for The Wind and Best Rock Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal for his duet with Bruce Springsteen, "Disorder in the House".
• The show also featured a tribute to The Beatles in honor of the 40th anniversary of their arrival in America and their appearance on The Ed Sullivan Show. During the show, both widows of deceased members – Yoko Ono and Olivia Harrison – made an on-stage appearance.
