Music royalty gathered at the Staples Center in Los Angeles, California, Sunday night to honor the best of the best -- and artists pulled out all the stops to entertain on music's big night. Taylor Swift opened the show with her Record of the Year nominated tune "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together" complete with ballerinas, men on stilts and rabbits. Justin Timberlake made a triumphant return to the Grammys, doing a duet of "Suit & Tie" with Jay-Z in matching tuxes.

Alicia Keyes played drums, a la Sheila E, on her duet with Maroon 5's Adam Levine, while Rihanna did a tribute to Bob Marley with Sting, Bruno Mars and Ziggy Marley. Elton John contacted newcomer Ed Sheeran and asked if they could do a duet of Sheeran's song "The A Team" on the show, marking the young singer's first Grammy performance. Winner of Song of the Year, Fun., took to the stage and sang their newest single "Carry On" complete with rain on stage.

Jack White played two songs -- "Love Interruption" and "Freedom at 21" off his Grammy nominated Album of the Year. Carrie Underwood's white dress became a movie screen as images were projected on to it and fellow "American Idol" alum Kelly Clarkson did a tribute to Patti Page and Carole King by singing "Tennessee Waltz" and "Natural Woman." Which Grammy performance do you think was the best of the night?

    Ed Sheerans was by far the best :) His performance was the only reason I even watched the grammy. He deserved to win in the category he was nominated in too :/

    The Tennessee performers always steal the show. Taylor and Carrie are from Nashville,

    Wasn't even close. However, Katy Perry's performance of walking across the stage in that tight green dress to present an award runs a close 2nd place. Damn she is hot!!!

    Jack White blew me away; I also liked Carrie Underwood, Kelly Clarkson...I like most of them. I liked it so much that I searched online to see if the show was for sale on DVD. I want it!!!! I also loved LLCool J with Travis Barker and the others closing the show. Its too bad the performance was cut short by the station.

    Alicia Keyes and Adam Levine was definitely my 2nd choice but I gotta go with JT. He defined entertainment at the grammy's and did it with effortless cool and charm!

    Anything with Jay-Z messes up my stomach, did not care to watch! I stopped making it a habit of supporting the dirt that is corrupting our youth and America.

    I LOVED the Marley tribute. Jack white did AWESOME..they're tied for first place for me.

    To be honest the only person I had any complaints about was Frank Ocean.. He's just so BORING.. Justin Timberlake could have been better too... Otherwise I enjoyed most of it.
