Sam Smith, who identifies as non-binary, and Kim Petras, who identifies as a transgender woman, won the Grammy for Best Pop Duo/Group Performance for their song "Unholy."
At the Grammys, Sam Smith and Kim Petras gave a performance that appeared demonic, and which GOP Senator Ted Cruz of Texas referred to as "evil."
Following the conclusion of the performance, a message indicated that Pfizer had sponsorship involvement with the 65th Grammy Awards. Senator Cruz humorously commented, "Pfizer is taking the whole truth

"We sponsored the overall Grammy's event, not any particular performance. Beyond that, we don't comment on our efforts to raise awareness," a Pfizer spokesperson said to Newsweek.
Billy Hallowell tweeted about the performance, expressing sadness, "It's really heartbreaking to watch people mock God, flaunt that mockery, and then be praised for it. This should break our hearts and send us into prayer for these people. Truly."
The "Unholy" performance wasn't really outrageous or innovative; it was just sad. It's really heartbreaking to watch people mock God, flaunt that mockery, and then be praised for it. This should break our hearts and send us into prayer for these people. Truly.
