Grammy awards 2010 winners

Beyonce once again tied a record for most wins by a female performer at the Grammys by netting five trophies, including song of the year for "Single Ladies," but the Kings of Leon's "Use Somebody" trumped her "Halo" to win record of the year Sunday night.

The southern rock group's inspirational, romantic ode also beat out Taylor Swift's "You Belong With Me," Lady Gaga's "Poker Face" and the Black Eyed Peas' "I Gotta Feeling" for the honor of the year's top record.

Music composer A R Rahman scored a double triumph on Monday at the Grammy Awards in Los Angeles, scooping two early honours for his music from Oscar-winning film "Slumdog Millionaire".

Rahman won the first Grammy of the pre-show at the Staples Center in the best compilation soundtrack for a motion picture category before his "Jai Ho" won in the best motion picture song category moments later.
