Summary
Rosalía became the first woman to win the Latin Grammys' best album award three times, adding Lux to earlier wins for El Mal Querer in 2019 and Motomami in 2022.
Five trophies capped her night in Las Vegas: La Perla won song of the year and best pop song, while she also took best alternative music album and best shortform music video for Sauvignon Blanc.
La Perla missed out on record of the year, which went to Argentine singer Milo J for Niño; the 20-year-old finished with four awards and praised Argentine folk music in his acceptance speech.
Daddy Yankee also headlined the ceremony with the person of the year honor, while Diljit Dosanjh became the first Indian artist to perform at the Latin Grammys during the reggaeton star's set.
Lux, released last year to strong reviews, is already being tipped as a contender when Grammy nominations are announced next week.
