Not to mention her phony blonde hair and obvious alterations made to her face. Yeah, Madge, it looks like you need to take your own advice!

She's a 56 years old mother and potential grandmother who is still performing and dressing like she's twenty years old. It's not working for her. All through her performance, I kept thinking how she looked like an old woman trying too hard to be hip and sexy. Also, many of her movements reminded me of watching 70+ year old women trying to dance and look sexy. Yeah, not a pretty sight! Natural sexiness is something even a 70 year old woman wouldn't have to work too hard to achieve if she really is sexy! One thing became very clear: She is all smoke and mirrors!

Madge, it's time to either cover up and really accept yourself, or shut up. Move over and let the young people have the spotlight. You had your time. You are now obsolete, and look down right silly!
I agree, pj.

Rather, they would be given certificates to honor their participation in the work, just as any other writers of sampled or interpolated work.”

He does still collect tons of money from the song!!

I thought Madonna looks great for her age but the performance was horrible; as was her outfit. Compare her to Annie Lennox, who is not busy trying to look 25, and she was awesome.

Kanye is an a$$ but I loved the trio with him, Rhianna, and Paul McCartney. He should be banned from attending any further Grammy's, however.

I love Sia and the Chandelier Video - but that thing with Kristen Whig was just stupid. Sia needs a new schtick.

I watched back and forth with the Walking Dead so I'm sure I missed some stuff.

Sam Smith has a great song; but too many awards, IMO. There are no other young, up and coming artists? Come on.

When Annie was on I said..."This is how it's done you 20 yr olds!"
Rather see her sing one song than MaDonna's whole entourage.

Now have you seen the quicky interview with Kanye?!!!

He seriously said Beck should give his award to Beyonce in the'' name of art!"
He was intense!
I hope Karsadian money doesn't squash the story...it should be on Ent. Tonight!
The announcer reporting said, "Well, he is a good singer."
Meaning, even tho he is a nut.


Yes, too many awards for Sam...he is ok ... the song was the winner.

The Kristen Wigg thing gave me the best laugh of the night.

Annie Lennox as usual spectacular. Madonna really needs to go away.

I have this problem. Every time I see Kanye West, I think he looks exactly like a human who has been turned into a parrot by an evil wizard. He looks like a dang PARROT and I expect him to sound like a parrot when he opens his beak, I mean... mouth. And, sometimes he does sound like a parrot. Then I'm convinced that he really is a parrot-human hybrid. That's disturbing. Why does he feel it's his place to interrupt the Grammys and put his parrot-y two cents in? He believes Beyonce' deserves to win and Beck doesn't. Okay, why does the parrot-man think anyone else cares?

I'm always amazed at the amount of windbaggery there is at the Grammys. The egos are just out of control. I think Annie Lennox is truly an artist. She doesn't rely on gimmicks.

Kristen Wiig can do no wrong in my opinion. I love her in every single thing she does. She's such a talented person.

Why are his actions NOT considered racist? Just imagine the outcry if it were the other way around (a white person going up on stage during a black person's win).

I later saw her performance online, and wow, I thought it was great! It looked like a concert performance. The dancers did really well. The song was really good too.

They were, no doubt about it. The problem is the industry is full of pus**** and they won't call the fool out.
