Queen Latifah honored gains in marriage equality laws when she married 33 couples live during the Grammys.
The singer and actress was granted temporary legal powers to marry the couples — many of them same-sex couples spanning a spectrum of age groups -during the performance of Macklemore & Ryan Lewis's equality hit "Same Love."
Wearing a sparkling black dress, Latifah introduced the couples from the stage: "We are gathered here to celebrate love and harmony in every key and every color . . . This song is not a love song for some of us but for all of us."
The performance by Macklemore and Lewis also included an appearance by Mary Lambert and by surprise guest Madonna.
