I’m not usually big on award shows, but for some reason I found myself glued to last night’s Grammys. So here’s the rundown a la Gracie.
Rihanna’s performance was my favorite of the night. She never disappoints.
The boys of Foster The People are just the cutest little nuggets. I saw them live over the summer and was so happy to see them performing on last night’s big show. Oh, and they clearly beat out Maroon 5 in the Beach Boys battle.
Is it just me or does LL Cool J never seem to age? Although, there’s got to be something shady going on under that newsboy cap of his…
Jennifer Hudson’s performance. Speechless.
I’m still not understanding the obsession with Adele. Why do people talk about and treat her like she’s saved humankind from depletion? She’s adorable – she really is – but I just don’t find her voice to be all that pleasant.
Even though she’s released one too many anthem songs, there’s just something I really like about Katy Perry. Props to her for publicly venting about her failed marriage to Russell Brand in front of millions of people…I guess…
YAY FOR BON IVER! However, since when does a band that’s been around for 5 years constitute as being a “new artist?”
I’m not Gaga’s biggest fan, but that wand she was carrying was pretty dope.
But my award for best-dressed at the Grammys goes to…
It’s a tie. I’m a sucker for close girlfriends, what can I say?
What are your thoughts on last night’s Grammys? Best dressed? Best performance?
You like Rihanna and Katy Perry but think Adele doesn’t have a great voice. Okay then….
hey Krystina! yup. I never said Katy or Rihanna had better voices, I just personally prefer them as performers over Adele, no biggie.
Thanks to Twitter I never have to watch an awards show ever again!
bahahah truth
Loved Katy Perry! And Rihanna! I also thought Foster the People doing Beach Boys was too cute! I have to say though, I’m a huge Nicki Minaj fan but was super disappointed with her ‘performance’. What did you think!?
I like Lady Gaga’s outfit!! It’s almost understated for her! I didn’t watch the show live but I’m thinking I might youtube some of the performances…
Deanna says
sigh… you and my boyfriend both with not “getting” the big deal about Adele… As a trained singer I understand how ahhhmaahhhhzingly talented she is to be able to have such a huge voice.
You can tell she only ever sings live unlike Katy Perry - did you see when she was lying down “singing” as the guys carried her? Just try to even talk while sitting up then tilting your head far back and you’ll see how your voice changes. Hers didn’t change at all… It is almost impossible to sing and dance and sound half decent - unless of course your Beyonce!
I do agree though that the pop stars are a lot more entertaining to watch though!
Love your Blog!
I completely agree with you on Adele. I appreciate her talent and the unique-ness she brings to the industry, but I don’t think she’s the musical goddess everyone else seems to think she is. Maybe it’s just my personal music preferences? Who knows.
Rihanna was killer last night! Her dress was perfection. And I love Katy Perry! She’s the only person who could die her hair blue and absolutely rock it.
Ok, right there with you on LL Cool J… at first I was thinking, is he even still relevant? And then when I saw him, all I thought was “this man doesn’t age!” Crazy!
I actually did a post on this too.
Nicki Minaj’s performance … I was in complete and utter shock. No words, whatsoever. It’s just something that shouldn’t have be done lol.
Bon Iver pissed me off with the ungrateful speech though :-\, not a fan at all lol.
And Adele ? (Sigh) I love her.
I have to say that I actually love Rihanna’s new hair color. She can pull blonde off really well.
same, i love it!! she can do no wrong in my book haha
