Grammys 2017: Adele takes home Best Record but insists Beyonce deserves Best Album award



Adele has taken home the Grammy Awards for Best Record and Best Album.
Accepting her Best Record award for 'Hello' the British artist paid tribute to the 'Formation' singer, as well as to her manager, whom she said she loved "like a father".
Brought back on moments later to receive the award for Best Album a tearful Adele said "I can't possibly accept this".
The Lemonade snub was clearly as much of a shock to her as it will be to those who saw Lemonade as one of the best works Beyonce has produced in years.
Most people believed that Beyonce would scoop the biggest award in music for her concept album, which was consistently named as the best album of the year by fans and critics alike.
Earlier on in the night the singer, who is pregnant with twins, was introduced by her mother for a phenomenal performance of 'Love Drought' and 'Sandcastles'

Google apologises after ads appear next to extremist content

Google's European boss has apologized after adverts from major firms and government agencies appeared next to extremist content on its YouTube site. It came after Marks and Spencer became the latest firm to pull its online ads over the issue, joining others such as Audi, RBS and L'Oreal. Google's European chief, Matthew Brittin, promised to review the firm's policies and strengthen enforcement. But some questioned the company's commitment to tackling the issue. A recent investigation by the Times found adverts from a range of well-known firms and organisations had appeared alongside content from supporters of extremist groups on YouTube's video site. An advert appearing alongside a video earns the poster about £6 for every 1,000 clicks it generates, meaning brands may have unwittingly contributed money to extremists. The Times said that rape apologists, anti-Semites and hate preachers were among those receiving payouts. Analysis: Rory Cellan-Jones, BBC technolog...
