Notable performances included Billie Eilish's rendition of 'Birds of a Feather' and Benson Boone's 'Beautiful Things.' Artists Doechii, Chappell Roan, Sabrina Carpenter, and Shaboozey delivered powerful performances, with Taylor Swift enthusiastically supporting from the audience.

Following a tribute to Quincy Jones, the ceremony honored the heroic firefighters who fought Los Angeles' devastating wildfires. LA County Fire Chief Anthony Marrone emphasized community resilience, stating, "I am confident that we will recover and rebuild together because we are LA strong."
