Adele's total ties Beyonce for the most wins by a female artist in one night. Besides the top honor for her sophomore album 21, she also won Best Pop Vocal Album for 21, Best Pop Vocal Performance for "Someone Like You," while her crossover smash "Rolling in the Deep" snared three statuettes: Record of the Year, Song of Year (a songwriter's award) and Best Short Form Video.
Foo Fighters was a close second with five awards, including Best Rock Album for Wasting Light and Best Rock Performance for "Rock." The rockers only lost Album of the Year.
Kanye West, who did not attend the show and led the field with seven nominations, followed with four wins in the rap categories, bringing his career total to 18. Skrillex took home three trophies, including Best Dance/Electronica Album for Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites and Best Dance Recording for the title track.
