Best New Artist Samara Joy Reveals Where She's Putting Her First Grammys!

Samara Joy picked up a surprising win for Best New Artist at the 2023 Grammys on Sunday night (February 5) at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles.

The 23-year-old jazz singer had some competition from some well known and fan-favorite artists in the category, including Måneskin, Anitta, Latto and Omar Apollo, among others.

“I’ve been singing all my life… Thank you so much for this honor, thank you to everyone who has listened to me and supported me,” she said during her acceptance speech. “To be here because of who I am…to be here by just being myself, by just being who I was born as, I’m so thankful.”

The singer also won the Best Jazz Album for Linger Awhile earlier in the night at the pre-show, where she also performed her song “Can’t Get Out Of This Mood.”

On the Grammys red carpet, she revealed where she plans to put her first Grammys!

“What’s great about this is my parents were able to be here, so as soon as they heard my name, they stood up and was louder than everyone in the room,” she told People on the carpet, when at the time she only had one award so far. “So, I’m gonna put it up in their house because that’s where it belongs.”

Samara even joked that her trophy was going to be placed in a locked, glass safe.

“You can only look at it through a glass box,” she said with a laugh.
