Last night was the 53rd Grammy Awards and I’m proud to say that I stayed awake for most of it! Here is a llink for all the winners —> GRAMMY WINNERS! and below are some things that I thought of during the show.
*The opening act performance for the tribute to Aretha Franklin, I thought Florence blew away EVERYONE!
*Lady GaGa… I loved your performance! Being born from your egg or cocoon or pod thing for Born This Way was genius. There were no over the top theatrics, just simply nude costumes and amazing dancing.
*Lenny Kravitz, I miss your hair.
*Muse didn’t disappoint while performing Uprising. The song itself has a damn good message and the back drop images also did.
*B.o.B., Bruno Mars and Janelle Monae you all are so talented. B.o.B. (looking like the monopoly man) kicked it off with some help from Bruno Mars performing Nothin’ On You. Bruno Mars then took us back to the 50′s doing a doo wop version of Grenade (smart move on his part because the original is played out) complete with a black & white color scheme. Janelle Monae impresses me everytime she’s on stage. She sang Cold War and the energy coming from her was just incredible and her voice is one of a kind. The cool thing about all 3 of them performing together was whoever was singing, the other 2 were playing an instrument.
*Justin Bieber started out his set with an acoustic version of Baby then kicked it into high gear performing Never Say Never complete with ninjas and a special surprise from Jaden Smith. The best part of this act was seeing Jaden’s parents (Will and Jada Smith) looking along so proudly at their son. Usher then came out and sang O.M.G. then met up with the Biebs and did a little dance together. Honestly Bieber outshone Usher. Usher I miss your old shit and how you used to kill it. Your new stuff is cool but the performances are mediocre.
*When I saw who was nominated for the Rock category I couldn’t help but think: Why the hell wasn’t Avenged Sevenfold nominated?!?!?!?!?!
*Mumford & Sons got me totally into a Southern groove!The keyboard player was rocking out like there was no tomorrow! The passion with watching those guys play made me Google them and I like them
The Avett Brothers, you guys were cool and I liked when you started jamming with M&S but Bob Dylan should have stayed home.
*Lady Antebellum, I think I like you live more than your recorded stuff and congratulations on the awards!
*Cee Lo Green, the Muppets and Gwyneth Paltrow. WOW… Cee Lo, you looked like the illegitimate love child of a peacock Muppet and a turkey. Your song kicks ass though and you sounded great. The Muppets!!! How can you go wrong with the Muppets?! The answer is you can’t
I wished Miss Piggy would have made a surprise appearance. Gwyneth Paltrow, I had no clue you can sing and you impressed me. Loved the energy!
*Katy Perry! I adore her! She started off with Not Like the Movies while being raised in the air on a beautiful swing and her wedding playing in the background <3 Loved it then she performed one of my favorite songs Teenage Dream.
*John Mayer reminded me of Johnny Depp in The Tourist
*Rihanna, you sang Love The Way You Lie: Part II the best that I’ve heard you live. A shout out also to Maroon 5′s Adam Levine as he assisted with some piano work. Eminem took over on a fiery stage with his part in the song as Rihanna made her way over to him and joined him. She then left and you heard the hauntingly beautiful voice of Skylar Grey starting to sing I Need A Doctor. Her voice gave me goosebumps and I would love to hear more from her. Eminem’s performance slaughtered it, resurrected it and killed it again. Dr. Dre then came out like the boss he is. Aftermath is back full force and in your face. Dre I can’t wait to hear Detox
*Mick Jagger also put on a show last night!!! He’s ancient and he still sounds outstanding and has a timeless energy I’m sure many people wish they had.
I fell asleep for the rest but those were the highlights of the show from me and I think I saw the best parts
What was your favorite part or performance?

Lady GaGa has a new song out called Born This Way off her upcoming album. This song has to be one of the most meaningful songs in my opinion that she has written. It has an uplifting beat and inspiring lyrics to make you raise your hand and be proud of yourself. GaGa’s vocals are on point! Its definitely an anthem to anyone who has felt bullied or ridiculed about being their self that haters can take it or leave it. Listen for yourself
Just put your paws up ’cause you were born this way baby!

So, this morning my phone was blowing up with tweets from Britney Spears and she finally sent a twitpic of what I’m guessing is her album artwork and the name of it Femme Fatale. She had me freaking out like a 12 year old again… I CAN’T WAIT FOR THIS ALBUM which should be dropping around March 15th!!!
If you think you’ve seen this picture before its because it looks VERY similar to the Hold It Against Me artwork.
Either way she looks gorgeous and she can pull that off
