<p>The ratings are in for the 2023 Grammy Awards show — which featured a &#8220;Demonic&#8221; performance by artist Sam Smith — and the show continues to struggle to bring in the audience it had pre-pandemic.</p>
<p>According to final same-day Nielsen ratings, the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/grammys">65th Grammys</a> had 12.55 million viewers — a 31% increase from last year&#8217;s numbers — but they are still down compared to the numbers from 2020, The <a href="https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/tv-ratings-sunday-feb-5-2023-1235318741/">Hollywood Reporter</a> reported.</p>
<p>The show saw a record-low viewership of 9.59 million in 2022, but it had 18.69 million viewers back in 2020.</p>
<p>In the coveted 18-49 age demographic, the Grammys landed a 2.88 rating, which is up by 29% from last year&#8217;s showing.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>However, the 2020 ceremony beat Sunday&#8217;s by 46% in the 18-49 demographic and had a rating of 5.4</p>
<p>Despite the low numbers compared to pre-pandemic viewership, the Grammys are still the most watched primetime network event of this season besides sports broadcasts, according to the Hollywood Reporter.</p>
<p>This year&#8217;s show saw Harry Styles&#8217; album &#8220;Harry&#8217;s House&#8221; beat out Beyonce&#8217;s &#8220;Renaissance&#8221; for Album of the Year. Fans of the &#8220;Crazy in Love&#8221; hitmaker reacted vocally to the upset on social media, as <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/harry-styles-beat-beyonce-for-album-of-the-year-and-people-are-upset">The Daily Wire</a> previously reported.</p>
<p>The show also featured a segment with artist Sam Smith wearing a horned hat while performing with Kim Petras — who is a biological male — in what many called a  &#8220;demonic&#8221; show. The two performed on stage as they sang their song &#8220;Unholy&#8221; surrounded by red lights with a fiery backdrop. Their performance also used &#8220;props that had allusions to BDSM themes,&#8221; according to <a href="https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/music-news/sam-smith-kim-petras-2023-grammys-performance-1235318368/">The Hollywood Reporter</a>.</p>
