The award was presented by Taylor Swift and Idris Elba at the Beverly Hilton.

Gaga was also nominated for best performance by an actress in a movie drama, though she lost to Glenn Close. Bradley Cooper also lost in the best acting category, and to another film highlighted by music: Rami Malek playing Freddie Mercury in Bohemian Rhapsody.

In 2016, Gaga won best actress in a miniseries or motion picture made for television for her role in FX’s American Horror Story: Hotel.

‘Shallow’, performed by Gaga and Bradley Cooper, earned four Grammy nominations, including song and record of the year. The track also reached platinum status and became a Top 5 hit on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.
