Adele wins five awards at the Grammys

Adele has won best album, record and song of the year at the star-studded Grammy music awards show in Los Angeles.

The British singer's hit track Hello has beat Beyonce's Formation at the 59th annual ceremony, which saw the singer take home five awards after delivering a stirring tribute to George Michael.

The 28-year-old star was forced to stop and restart a cover of Fastlove, apologising to the audience for the pressure of honouring the late singer.

"I f**** up," she said, "I can't mess this up for him".

In her acceptance speech, Adele apologised for swearing, adding Michael meant so much to her that she didn't want to slight him with a poor performance.

She also took home best pop vocal album for 25 and best pop solo performance for Hello.

The singer becomes the second woman to win album of the year twice after Taylor Swift broke the record last year.

"I can't possibly accept this award," she said.

"I'm very humble and I'm grateful and gracious but the artist of my life is Beyonce and the Lemonade album was just so monumental - Beyonce, it was so monumental," Adele added.

"We got to see another side to you that we don't always see. We appreciate that. All us artists here, we f****** adore you."

Although overshadowed by Adele, Beyonce did not leave empty handed.
