Rosalía makes history with third best album win at Latin Grammys

Spanish artist Rosalía has achieved a historic milestone by becoming the first woman to secure the best album award at the Latin Grammys on three separate occasions. Her latest project, Lux, earned her this recognition during the ceremony held in Las Vegas on Thursday.

The performer walked away with a total of five trophies throughout the event. Her track La Perla was honoured as both song of the year and best pop song, although it failed to secure the record of the year title, which went to Argentine singer Milo J for his song Niño. Additionally, Rosalía was awarded the prize for best alternative music album and received the best shortform music video accolade for Sauvignon Blanc.

The Barcelona-born musician, who began the night with a medley of her prominent hits, reflected on her journey while accepting her award. She said: "To all the people who told me I wasn't good enough, or that my music was too weird, I'm thankful I didn't listen." She concluded by noting: "Now I'm winning these prizes."

Rosalía previously achieved success in the best album category with El Mal Querer in 2019 and Motomami in 2022. Her most recent work, Lux, is already considered a potential contender for the upcoming Grammy nominations scheduled to be revealed next week.
