2010 Grammy Wrap-Up

Well, Grammy's are over. I only watched it to catch Drake's performance (which they saved till the end, I will get to that later)

The big winner was Taylor Swift. She got Album of the Year over Lady Gaga, Beyonce, BEP, and The Dave Matthews Band. Though I am not a Lady Gaga fan, I thought she would have won it, but congrats to Taylor.
The-Dream & his bright ass, pink ass jacket. That was not cute at all! They put the "wrap it up" music on while he was giving his thank you's. I think it was because they didn't want to look at that Pink Panther jacket any longer...

Performances:
Lady Gaga -  missed part of her performance, but I saw Elton John. I love Elton John and her vocals were on point.
Beyonce - her outfit was dope. I loved it, but she could have picked a better song. 'If I Were A Boy'? No. And she grabbed her crotch, which was very inappropriate. Come on, be a lady. I was digging the piece of the Alanis Morisette song she did. Kudos for that.
BEP - dope dope & more dope! 'nuff said.
P!nk - I love her. Her Cirque du Soleil, high-flying acrobatics gets me everytime. She's spinning and singing at the same time. Dancing & singing is one thing; spinning & singing is another. Skills.
Taylor Swift - I missed it because I was on the phone, so no commentary
Green Day - I liked the song. And the girls were sangin'!
Maxwell - I love him, but apparently he was hitting the wrong notes. He also performed with Roberta Flack, but again, I was on the phone.
Jamie Foxx & T-Pain ft. Doug E. Fresh & Slash - Yeah it was random as hell, but Jamie did his thing. Somebody on twitter said he looked like Captain Crunch (slightly true, lmfao). Jamie brought out his sister and she danced as always. People were wondering why she was up there, but I already knew. His sister has Down Syndrome, I believe, and he brings her on stage every once in a while. Jamie also said something to Jay-Z at the end of the performance, but again, I was on the phone (damn phone! lol)
MJ Tribute - the 3D was JANKY! lol. It made my eyes hurt & since I already wear glasses, they wouldn't stay on my face so #boo. I was waiting to see Celine Dion, but couldn't pay attention to the performance because of the many issues I had.
& the performance I actually tuned in for...
Drake, Eminem, Lil' Wayne & Travis Barker (sans Kanye West) - I felt like a proud mother, I promise! lol. He was so happy up there. People in the audience were feeling it. Jamie Foxx was filming it, Quentin Tarantino introduced him & he was all extra hype about it. I wish I had the exact quote he said. He got to perform at the Grammy's on his mixtape. Some people don't get nods on their album. Dopeness. Even though the censors were acting funky... I see you, censors... or rather hear you...

What else did I want to comment on? hmm... I forget. I'll just update when I remember, lol

Oh! The cutest thing ever! Beyonce finally acknowledged Jay-Z in her speech. It was thee single most cutest thing I have ever seen. Mainly because they have never really announced or shown their love for each other.

"Including my husband, I love you."

Just adorable. Also, Jay-Z brought his nephew-in-law to the stage when winning his award for... whatever it was for..... Julez distracted me. And the feathers on Rihanna's dress.

Overall, the awards were boring. Most performances didn't stand out, and were not included, because I couldn't remember them.
