ThE 2009 gRaMmY aWaRdS


Did you catch the Grammys yesterday?!

Although the Grammys are thoroughly entertaining, it wasn't as impressive this year. For one, singers Chris Brown and Rihanna were scheduled to perform but due to a lovers spat, they both decided not to show up. The show had to be rearranged because of their absence. 
 
Ryan Seacrest was this years host, and before the show began it would seem that Seacrests' m.o. for the evening was picking on celebrities. Did you see the way he hounded singers Miley Cyrus and Taylor Swift, simply for being BFF's

Broad range vocalist Jennifer Hudson won for best R and B album, and as she shed tears on stage for the family she recently lost -- her performance was emotionally heartfelt. 

Vocalist extraordinaire Whitney Houston, seemed to struggle with her speech as her words were slurred and it became difficult to comprehend her rhetoric; a good example of this behavior would be when model-turned-reality star Anna Nicole Smith, introduced Kanye West at the Grammys a few years back while incoherently speaking her words.

Country singing group Sugarland and alternative singer Adele, both gave intriguing performances. Adele displayed lovely and unique bluesy and/or soulful vocal abilities. 

Robert Plant and Alison Krauss, won a major award over other artists and it was most confusing that they did win, since their music genre differed from all other artists within the category. 

Singers Alicia Keys nor Beyonce, was nominated for any awards this years.

The band Cold play had a great performance but the person at the top of my list for best performances is, Carrie Underwood! She was absolutely amazing and exuded such confidence and star power, that it gave me chills just watching her.

The Grammys had its highlighted moments but overall, it wasn't the best award show to date. What do you think? And how did London rapper MIA, not go into labor while performing?!
