TPain Looks a mess.
i didnt like wut kanye did at all. it was clear he had an agenda. he belittled everyone else who was nominated in the album of the year category and expected them not to turn the music on. he is ignorant and he didnt begin talking about his mom until after he *****ed about the album of the year category. He is clearly devisive.
Wow… you go Obama!
11 Time Grammy Award Winner, Alicia Keys!!
i love how that sounds. I swear, my girl wins Grammy’s for sport!
chaka khan stay looking a mess and i love it! i thought jill scott lost all that weight? oh no? it was just in the movie? oh, even in the movie she really didn’t lose that much weight? oh, got it.
i think kanye shouldnt be given a platform to speak at all. anywhere
another thing .. while obama clearly deserved to win among the nominated, i am saulty they didn’t nominate Ghostface killah/pretty tony for his audio book – now that is some genious words of wisdom
i think kanye had every right to talk about his mom, he was givin the time to he just opted to talk about other artists in his allotted time instead of what mattered. i think his inflated ego should and will be his downfall.
Very happy for Amy Winehouse…She deserved all she won…
T-Pain won a grammy? Give me a *****ing break…they really don’t mean ***** anymore.
Aaw, *****. You’ve gone and mentioned Rihanana and her no-talent ***** again, which means bajan is gonna be up in here with another mile-long post about “RIRI IS A FANTASTIC SINGER FASHION ICON UMBRELLA SALESMAN SHUT UP AND DRINK IT Y’ALL HATERZ!!1!” I even saw her psycho ***** posting on the Rolling Stone blog and saying that the Grammys wouldn’t even have been on TV if it weren’t for all the interest in ReeReeRizzle’s non-singing ***** and huge head. That ***** is crazy…
Alicia may not be public media champ, Beyonce, but she is sure racking up on Grammys lol…She should make her mother proud.
Just happy for our people in general …Herbie Hand***** deserved those and at 67 too. And a Grammy for Obama…What? That is just to much. There is much to be proud of this Black History Month.
Oh no its Dr. Seuss on crack….. Gotta give it to him for not havin any shame with his creative juices…
Lol @ Lady…. I can’t remember the last time I even watched the grammys… Maybe 2001….
I glad Rihanna won herself a Grammy. I know there will be more Grammy’s for her in the future.
Now I usually love Jill to pieces…but she needs to burn that dress and that weave…HORRIBLE! Her face is pretty though…(can’t be too mean to Jill)
Chaka is still shapely for her age…
T Pain needs to be caned for wearing that *****ed up hat.
I am so happy that beyonce didn’t win any Grammy
Tpain looks ignant as hell..Jill is wrong for that dress. i usually like her look.
All rihanna did was skip around the stage. with a performance like that she had no room to laugh at britney ( and thats not saying much) Now beyonce and tina seemed like a very natural choice. their performance meshed really well. Neither tried out doing each other it just looked like they had a good time.
@ Will Smiff
Wow!! no love lost between u and Bajan huh?? LOL
Rihanna has such a beautiful voice and when she sang umbrella and Don’t stop the Music with the Time she brought the house down. Best performance of the night.
HELP ALICIA…She needs a stylist ASAP! WTF was she doin wearin those ghetto hoops…It did not belong with that outfit…*****
Rihanna looks splendid as usual…Bey is fading now…Oh well!
Sad that Beyonce didn’t win anything and you gotta give it to her she was a hard working woman this past year…But I think she’ll come harder next year.
As a Chicagoan I am EMBARR*****ED at Kanye’s behavior…they are gonna stop giving his ***** awards just to avoid him going up there to be a sore winner and we all know he is a sore loser…YO’ MAMA MIGHT BE DEAD KANYE, BUT SHE DAMN SURE DIDN’T TEACH YOUR ***** A DAMN THING ABOUT HUMILITY. HOW YOU GONNA GO UP THERE AND DISS ANOTHER CHICAGO ARTIST THAT DID THAT PUT YOU ON HIS *****?!?! SHADY BUSINESS!! AND I AGREE, YOUR EGO WILL BE YOUR DOWN DOWN DOWN DOWNFALL!! FOLKS ARE TIRED OF YOU ACTING LIKE YOUR 4 YEARS OLD, GROWN UP *****!! (AND I MEAN ***** IN THE SENSE THAT YOUR ACTING LIKE AN IG’NANT *****, NOT IN A RACIAL WAY, DON’T GET IT TWISTED!)
@willsmurf,
RIHANNA was not upstage last nite. AMY WINEHOUSE UPSTAGED BEYONCE’S 10 YEAR CAREER. CAUSE IRREPLACEABLE was beyonce’s biggest and most successful hit to date but amy winehouse a drug addict upstage beyonce. and amy’s performance was the most anti*****ted performance of the night, not tina wid beyonce.
TITLE: DRUG ADDICT UPSTAGES BEYONCE.
but bey still got 10 grammy and alicia keys 11, rihanna is 19 and she has ONE.
****bajan****
I ain’t worried about Beyonce….I think ***** like this only motivates her to come harder. As for Amy, they sure did push her performance like some rocks…and surprisingly she did a good job, but she still seemed like those rocks are affecting her motor skills…hot mess…at least she looked like she bathed.
Chaka’s weave and makeup were looking really good…the outfit….typical older Chaka…girl quit having people make your clothes from their old couches.
And Jill…love you to death, but girl you are making my back hurt just looking at you and them *****ies…get a reduction girl! STAT!
the only beautiful lady up there is my girl alicia… she is absolutely gorgeous! natural beauty!
If Amy Winehouse upstaged Beyonce’s whole career, doesn’t that mean that she automatically makes Rhinanna’s half-*****ed performance look that much worse? You’re not trying to say that Amy Winehouse beats Beyonce, but somehow Rhenanner is magically better than Amy, are you?
@PaigeyWaigey so true!!! And why mention other artists? Take your award, thank God and scram. Oh, the arrogance….so boring and infuriating at the same time. Just be thankful, damn…have some humility. YOU ARE NOT THAT IMPORTANT!
amy winehouse is the ***** hands down. she is the ***** and she is a damn crackhead. imagine if she gets her ***** together. amy deserved every award that she got. i’m mad herbie han***** got album of the year. everyone else in that catagory should feel jipped.
Ok Tina and B did a great job! Tina looks great, B needs to give up the booty shorts but she still looks good! Didn’t like Beyonce’s ice blue dress, Solange dress was ok but those shoes she had on were FABULOUS!!!! Usher looked gay! I really enjoyed Rihanna and The Time. Ummmmm Alicia Keys……just ok to me. I wanted Chris Brown to perform……..dah well. What can I say Aretha, Aretha, Aretha!!!!!!!! Luda & Tom Hanks are both so handsome. Why did Nas have that NI@@ER shirt on?
OK LAST BUT NOT LEAST………………….AMY WINEHOUSE IS A CRACK W***** and we ought to be ashamed of the people we are proud of! So when this chick dies dumb a$$es are going to talk about how sweet and great loving kind hearted person she was!!! GTFOHWTBS!!!!!!!!!!!!! They won’t let her in the states but there are gonna let her perform via satellite, that s&*t just amazed me!!!!!
Kanye performance was crazy with the lights and all I liked it. That man had so much love for his mother that is just beautiful! Why get that man started let him talk don’t cut the music on when he is just being him. ya’ll don’t want another scene backstage and especially when he is trying to pay tribute to his mother, damn Grammy have some respect!!!!!
And one more thing I think Alicia Keys has a wonderful voice and beautiful style, but come on with the over kill already. I have to give it up for Jill and Fantasia’s voice is wonderful. And Amy, way to come back, Britney needs to take some notes…On the come back that is, never the voice, that won’t happen.
Jill Scott I was afraid this would happen! Commercializing at is finest!!!! Alicia Keys has fallen that catagory too. Beyonce start that way! Rihanna started in it but has come out of it, I like that about her! …………………dah well Hollyweird!!
Now while I LOVE Jill’s voice and her style, WTF happened last night? She looks a hot mess. Sorry Jill…
Chaka looks how she always does and I’m not really feeling Alicia’s performance outfit/look – it did nothing for her shape.
I like Amy and I’m glad she won the awards she did last night. She put the H in humility when they announced she won Song of the Year – I hope she completes the healing process and finishes getting herself together.
****Born****
You know what? You are right, something was off with Alicia’s performance…she was wildin’ out, it was too much, but I just bought a pair of those pants she had on last week…She’s definitely a product now…and was she even playin’ the piano?!?!?! Did anybody else notice that?????????????????????????? Then she had that other piano that end of the runway, and she barely touched it..Fakin’ it. Damn shame…Stevie, Elton, HERBIE!!….they play EVERYTIME! The point of her as an artist was the piano playing, and now she ain’t even playin’ it at the GRAMMY’S?!?! She sold her soul, I wonder how much it was worth.
@ SOUTHERN bELLE,
Yeah, I love Amy Winehouse. But do you think she’ll be like Mary J.? You know, get all cleaned up and happy and then her music starts to not be as good and/or relatable to her fans? I mean I want her to get better, but I wonder if it’s gonna effect her music?
AND AS FOR COON OF THE YEAR T-PAIN!!!!
All Imma say is in the words of Dave Chapelle “THEY SHOULD HAVE NEVER GAVE YOU *****S MONEY!” What in the embaressing,setting our race back 200 year hell
is this mess? His breath looks like it Stank, not stink, S-T-A-N-K!!! And that jean set is horrible!!
He is the epitomy of stupidity and coonery!!! I hope he falls and breaks a tooth!!!
Again can I say that I love Amy? “This for my husband BLAKE, who is incarsarated”
@prettymiss…i hope she gets better. i don’t know if that will effect her music. her first album (frank) i think she may have done while she was sober and it was off the chain. i think this girl is just good regardless. but you are right about mary j. girl, she could do NO WRONG do you hear me. then, when she got all clean and sober, her music suffered to me. but i’m not mad at her for being happy and clean. i miss her good music though.
t-pain does look like he has a stanky mouth! hell, he looks like his whole body stinks!
Why is it sad that Beyonce didn’t win? She won last year. The album is old. She should have never been nominated in the first place. She don’t have to win and be apart of everything.
@Heather
She said my Blake incarcerated. That ***** was ssssssssssssso funny. Thats crackhead love…
@ Bajan you never stop, they gave her an award for Rap/Song come on now you know that was a pacifier put in her mouth.
And yes, Ms. Amy did her thang, and yes you are right, Amy did’nt, Alicia did.
Alicia came out yesterday, and did what? not 1 but 2…
ummmmmmmmm this to the person that said akeys wasn’t playing the piano yes she was until john mayer came out and started to do the thing with the gutiar(spelling) anyways i def don’t think she was selling out but she did have those door-knockers on which shouldn’t have happen. bee performance was decent i thought they was going to tear it upppppppppppp and set the bar but they didn’t it was cool tho alll together.
As far as Beyonce goes, why they put her in it anyway we will never know but that’s the Grammys.
Irreplaceable still beat out Umbrella for sales, so who cares, Rap/song now that’s still funny……………
Bajan you make Rihanna look worse and worse everyday. Rihanna is a laughing stock because after 3 whole albums she’s only won 1 grammy out of how many nominations? Yeah 6 and only won 1 and it was because of Jay-Z being on the song so that proves she can’t win a grammy by herself. She can’t even be compared to Beyonce anymore because she did not win 5 grammy’s in one night like Bey did on her first solo album. Also Beyonce won her grammy last year and the fact that she still getting nominated for an album that’s 2 years old is amazing. And how did Amy upstage Beyonce’s career? when Amy sells 130 million records then she can compare to her. And people are saying that Beyonce and Tina were the performance of the night and not one is talking about Rihanna’s performance and the only one who got upstaged was Rihanna because she had 6 nominations and Amy beat her in all of them. LMAO So GTFOH you’re only embar*****ing fivehead more and more.
Congrats to Alicia her and Beyonce are killing these other chicks they run the game!
@ Naysia, Bajan is going to learn and I hope it’s soon.
Bajan is one of those stans that should observe only….stop posting……
I’m glad Jill Scott won.
I truly hope T-Pain did not win a grammy. It’s a sad day in music if an artist like that wins a grammy.
in the words of homer simpson…”doh”
I’m still trying to figure out the difference between ALBUM of the year, and RECORD of the year.
Kanye is cool, but Graduation is my least favorite of his 3 albums. Great performance, though.
album of the year is the actually CD compilation, record is a song of the CD. Good Girl Gone Bad = album w/ “Umbrella”= record
I’m disgusted @ T-pain.. ***** if you gonna be goin’ out to an event like the Grammies at least get a manicure to clean that dirt from your fingernails.. SMDH.. How the ***** you gonna show up with some dirty-***** fingernails??
Amy Whinehouse is such a talented singer,Her performance was great. I love the fact that she said, “this is for my bloke, my bloke, that’s incarcerated”, that was funny, and ghetto, the way she said it. The girl is a powerhouse. I respect her, and I pray that she comes out of her pain and drug abuse with flying colors. I was upset that Natalie Cole, had to make the comment that Amy didn’t deserve the awards, until she got herself clean, because kids look up to artists. Ok, where was this concern when Whitney was receiving awards, and going through her issues. People were celebrating Amy’s talent, not her personal life. And who knows, she winning these awards, can actually give her something positive to embraced, and try to focus on her career. People should never judge, because as my mom would say, you could be up one day, and down the next. And if she’s really concerned about Amy, meet with the girl one on one, don’t try to front her in public.
Rhianna looked fabolous and the girl has her own style and it’s fits her.
Beattles are awesome, glad they were honored.
Prince is just as fierce as ever!
am i tripping… or did barack obama win a grammy… WTF lol dude is a *****ing g
@momo
song of the year= for the artist (performer)
record of the year= for the writer of the song
album of the year= for the entire album or cd
Where is beyoncee I know she had a baby girl hissie fit she didn’t win nothing! I think did she I didn’t se it! but from the looks of this list she didn’t!
Even J hudson won something we was just watching dreamgirls today at work for black history month!
i just want to say that with all the performances the grammy had, i was still expecting more..um did fergie win her grammy? bcuz her album is still on the charts 2 yrs l8r
What happen to best GOSPEL???????????
Amy Winehouse had the best performance of the night. Some would say Herbie Han***** and the other pianist, but I think Amy Winehouse’s was much better. Honestly, Tina’s show was hot, the solo part. Beyonce’s return to the stage is the point from which hilarity ensued. Really.
I luv Rihanna !!! , Kanye most def filling the performance … but to be fair dude should have just from the begining start to show love to his mom instead of all that chest thumping !!! Those grammy people aint trying to hear all that ish about when common should drop his albulm !! Love the performance about his mom !!! Ladies were crying all over the place !!! And to be honest … dudes should show some love too because black mothers are the truth !!! I LOVE BLACK MOTHERS … ESPECIALLY MINE !!!
I love black mothers !!! Quote me !!!
Being Bajan myself, I thought Rhianna’s performance needed a dash of salt,and I love Jill Scott to death but she looked like a big-breasted wizard in that out*****.
Who in the hell told T-pain that he could steal Suess’ hat????
Hopefully his cane is not m***** produced….how the hell can a 65 and up find that clear *****?

Things that make me go ……………………….
I must say I do like the fact that he wears his wedding band……most guys in his business, you’d never know.
I really wished that Jill couldve performed this year..and why do you folk insist on comparing everyone to beyonce? Im convinced that Dateline should lauch some type of expose/investigation into the sad sad lives of internet bloggers ..seriously folks this type of obsession is highly abnormal! beys album came out like 2 years ago..still being nominated for anyting after such an old release is nothing to sniff about! and now you fools are gonna do Amy Winehouse Vs Bey? are u seriuos? what do they have to do with each other? Ima just say a prayer , a slient prayer for all of you!
These people winning is a good thing. So, I won’t crap on their achievements.
But, as for their looks, um, a lot of these people needed to go back home and try again.
* Jill— She’s so beautiful, but I don’t think that the material of the dress was right for her figure.
* AK— Another beautiful woman, but from the neck up, she’s got major problems. That wig looks like a rat played in it, and the earrings do not compliment the outfit.
And it really hurts to me say it, but, she, actually, looks cheap.
* T-Pain— I never had any hopes for him, anyway.
* Chaka’s just being Chaka; so, no comment.
Actually,
* Song of the Year is for the songwriter
* Record of the Year is for the producer
* Album of the Year is for every person that worked on the album (i.e. the producers, writers, engineers, artist and mixers)
* Best Vocal Performance is for the artist
Rihanna did really well in her performance…She even performed with legends/big name singers called Time. They even got a standing ovation!
My girl Rihanna got her grammy award, now that speaks volumes on the girls career, not anybody can win a grammy! Love you Rihanna keep up the good job! I am also happy for Alicia Keys…
Jay-Z and Rihanna’s acceptance speech was so cute. She was really happy and you could tell Jay was happy for her.
T-Pain won a grammy? Give me a *****ing break…they really don’t mean ***** anymore.
—————————————————
500% CO SIGN!!! not just him either but i ain’t gonna say no names lol
WHY Lawd!!!!???!!!!
T-pain should have one something he was on errybody and dey mama remix!!
t-pain is becoming the next flava flav.. smh what a bamma
Alicia’s wig is twisted!
Jill Scott needs to lay off them biscuits!
I love Amy Winehouse.She is on fire>I am praying that she gets well ssssssssssoooon.Love ya amy.Rihanna is is da boom Love ya too
amy whinehouse is a *****ing joke, like every year at the grammys someone takes home the most grammys and this year it was amy, lets see where she be in 10 years, that is if shes still alive. the grammys are so damn corny, its not clearly about talent. its about a popularity contest.
theres no way in hell neyo corny ***** won best r&b album, yeah right. all that ***** he released is BULL*****. Tank and Keyshia Cole cd is way better than his. well its not about quality of good music no more. oh well im just glad beyonce didnt win ne thing, thank god. she need to take a break and chill for a good year or more.
@ Tiza
I totally agree….Ghostface book should have at least got nominated for a Grammy…thats some cl*****ic words on wisdom!!!
T-Pain is ugly as all hell, he is a monster with bad breath
@bohwe…..
I totally agree whitney was on that ***** for years and everbody still praised her talent…People are sleeping on Amy winehouse she is actually bringing back that old soul from the 60’s.. her first Album frank is on point which she was sober. i was sleeping on her just because i say all the blogs talking about her drug addiction. oneday i just listened to her album on napster and I was hooked Can’t wait until the next one..
Kanye is an idiot. Sit your ignorant self down.
t-pain is too damn animated for me
but i guess when u ugly u dont have a choice…u gotta do something so they’ll like u
either they goin laugh at u or wit u
Alicia is gorgeous in that picture
DAMN I thought Tpain was BISHOP DON MAGIC JUAN! LOL!
Kayne needs a HOE SIt Down… daMN get your ***** out your own mouth, go find John Legend – he’s your boo and more than happy to suck on it… KaynGAY ruins what talent he has by being so *****ing arrogant – ay Kayne – HOW U DOIN???????
Kanye West is a winner in my book. RACIST played a big part in the show. Amy Winehouse is on drugs her boyfriend is in jail and she win big. Now if the table were turn, Kanye would have not reiceived one award if he had the status that Amy Winehouse has. She really need to go to REehab and stop staying NO, NO I ain’t going. Kanye West if you read this You’re still my number one boy and that was so *****ing frude for them to start play music while you were speaking. ***** holes.
Jill Scott looks like a sexable Statue of Liberty. What wide-waisted wonders lie beneath that iron robe…
I am so glad Herbie Han***** won. Now maybe we will start getting some diversity on our radio stations again.
hoes sit yo *****es down for Mr West,lupe and Common,Ive always said these *****s r da *****!
HE LOOK DUMB AS HELL WHY DO HE GOT THAT ***** ON HIS HEAD BUT N-WAZ HIS ***** CAN DANCE
tha hell with all ya’ll tha clark sisters won three grammy’s forget all them other *****s
I found her at one big site, it seems that is wealthyloves.com Sorry. I forget the username.
