Billy Ray Cyrus<\/a><\/strong> just won his first Grammy Award after decades of being in the music business!
 
The country legend opened up to E!’s Ryan Seacrest<\/a><\/strong> Sunday on the 2020 Grammy Awards<\/a> red carpet after it was announced his and Lil Nas X<\/strong>‘s record-setting hit “Old Town Road” took home the award for Best Music Video<\/a>.
 
“It took all the pressure off,” Cyrus said of the win, adding, “Especially for a guy that never won a Grammy.”
 
“Is that true?” Seacrest asked Miley Cyrus<\/a><\/strong>‘ dad.
 
“Yes, this is my first Grammy,” Cyrus admitted. “I have to thank this young man right here, you know, for being a visionary and looking at music as there are no walls.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

The 20-year-old rapper added of their genre-defying song, “My vision, my vision was to bring these two genres together and it worked out much better than I even expected.”
 
Cyrus and Lil Nas X’s winning didn’t stop there. As Seacrest was interviewing the duo it was announced they also won Best Pop Duo\/Group Performance! “Old Town Road” is also nominated for Record of the Year tonight.
 
Meanwhile, Lil Nas X turned heads on the carpet in a bright pink ensemble. “This is Versace and you know it’s the all-pink,” he dished to Seacrest.
 
“I’m wearing hillbilly,” Cyrus joked.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n
