Which artist literally gave half his Grammy to the person he thought should have won?
Elton John
John Mayer
Tony Bennett
Kanye West
Fact: It’s one of the biggest honors in the music industry to win a Grammy Award. The idea of breaking one in half is nearly unheard of—but that’s exactly what John Mayer did after winning one of his Grammys. So where is the other half of his seventh Grammy Award? For that answer, you’ll have to visit Alicia Keys’ home. Back in 2005, John and Alicia were both nominated for Song of the Year. Mayer won the Grammy but believed it should have gone to Alicia for her song “If I Ain’t Got You” instead of his own, “Daughters.” After the ceremony, Mayer broke the trophy and gave Alicia the top half.
Correct Answer: John Mayer
