H.E.R. a smash hit at the Grammy's

SCREEN CAPTURE
H.E.R.'s dress  for the Grammy's was designed by DSquared2.

She may not have taken home any Grammys this year, but H.E.R.'s performance of her new song "Sometimes" demonstrated that the future is bright for the R&B singer in the music industry.


H.E.R. , aka Gabrielle Wilson, who won two Grammys at the 2019 ceremony and was nominated for three of the Big 4 categories at the 2020 awards show – hit the stage Sunday (Jan. 26) for a slow-building performance of her song "Sometimes."


(H.E.R. is an acronym for Having Everything Revealed.)

Starting out on the piano, H.E.R. was backed by a string section and a chorus of singers as she worked the song up to a soulful climax – at which point she stood up, casually walked over to a guitar and effortlessly tossed off a searing Prince-like solo without breaking a sweat.

She also showed that she's no slouch in the fashion realm. For the Grammy's, she shed her signature dark glasses and wore a more transparent eyewear, swept her hair above her head so we got a good look at the singer/musician's natural beauty.

In her second Grammy's show, the Filipina American artist got into the red carpet glamor by showing off her a kimono-inspired outfit. H.E.R. rocked a multi-colored kimono dress designed by DSquared, plus jewelry by Sara Weinstock, EFFY Jewelry and Rachel Katz.

In her red carpet interview with the Recording Academy, she said: "I just really love kimonos right now, so DSquared hooked it up and they made a little kimono vibe."

"It's crazy to think that I've (accomplished all of this) in just two years and that my first nomination became a win," she told Billboard. 

And all this from a recording artist who has yet to release a debut album -- although she promises us it's coming soon this year.


"You question the path that you're on sometimes and I have no right to do that now! I know I'm exactly where I'm supposed to be. And there's no greater feeling than manifesting what is meant for you," she said.
