Whoa. Back up. How is implying that Kanye is not modest immature? Are you trying to tell me he is modest? Please.

I'm not the one getting all defensive over Kanye's arrogance...that's you. I see why you like him, you seem to have a similar attitude. I don't think it's me who needs to grow up.

And by the way, I couldn't care less whether Amy's high or not; I am just pointing out that it is quite early in the morning as an alternative to why she seemed "out of it" to some.

i know


and WOOT for HERBIE!!!

damn i know you die hard Amy Winehouse fans are pissed, THERE'S BEEN AN UPSET!!!
Herbie won that award!!! Well good for him.

Well guess there was no MJ tribute performance....how dare them not make us suffer through that....

Seriously, I'm glad they didn't show it, i'd rather see MJ up there himself performing his own hits.

Jude418 said:

Too bad it doesn't project well, though. Every time he's presented an award there are parts where you can barely hear what he's saying because his voice is drown out by applause.

Vanilli said:

Why should they? Michael is not performing and he's not even there, so it was the right decision to scrap the whole thing! Michael should have denied any rumours of him appearing from the getgo!

Vanilli said:

Who said that they were going to do a Thriller tibute?

That was just some internet gossip. Don't get your panties in a bunch because the rumors turned out to be false.

WHAT was up with that will.i.am performance? I cannot believe how bad that was. And that was the CLOSER!

Just a little defense of NAS, he is taking a page out of Chuck D's book with that. Back in 2001 CHUCK D put down an amazing RAP on a John Mellecamp track called "Cuttin Heads" in the rap Chuck D basically talked about the double standard of N-word, the best line "I'm Confused they told me N-word contributes to your bottom line"

Yo, I am sooooo pissed. How the hail they gon' play "Beat It" and have Quincy Jones up there and then just end it abruptly. Got me all excited thinking Mike was gonna come out and perform. Maaaaan, that was so lame. They can't do this to people lol.

Overall and compared to at least the last ten years of shows, this one was a pretty good show.

Several performances by artists that I am definitely not a fan of, some good performances and some not so good but it was cool to see this show be a real celebration of music instead of just being a popularity contest. I may not like certain genres of music but I can certainly appreciate talent when I see it. It's cool to see people who love what they do perform.

And since this is a Prince site, I'll comment on Prince's appearance. He rehearsed saying that "joke" so many times before saying it that when he did actually go to say it he stumbled. I thought it was pretty lame.

But he looked good.

The kids on MJJC are crying rivers right now

Jude418, I know what you mean If I had a tape of him talking on a CD, I'd have women in my bed every night

MotherFUCKER!!

I'm defensive? Don't make me shit myself laughing. Just read your last response and tell me that wasn't defensive. Since you need some more growing up to do, i'm gonna be the bigger person and let this conversation go because I have better things to do than to waste time going back and forth with you. And with that being said, this conversation is over...because I SAY ITS OVER.

Thanks and have a good night's sleep little one.

seriously, will.i.am was the finale?

3 hours of my life!

I want my money back.

And I need to know where I can get a wig as silky P's

VoicesCarry said:

FINALLY something we agree on!!!! He was terrible...he's a terrible solo artist, I think when he produces others he pretty good, but that shit he did tonight was just embarrassing.

Dance said:

hey now, Little Richard's wig was hott!!!!

No Janet?!?!?!?

Aight ya'll, its been real.....i'm bout to turn in now. Nice chatting while watching the Grammy's with you guys!!!

Take Care!!!!

I'm watching Kanye's performance. One of the best performances I've seen in a long time.

Stronger was awesome from the visual/effects standpoint

The tribute to his mother gave me chills

It was reported that MJ wouldn't show up unless they gave him an award.
If this is true, and the grammy's refused to give into that freak MJ's demands, then hurray for the grammy's.
And seeing Prince was wonderful, as usual.

I'm disappointed

Well what you read was bullshit

missfee said:

Who are you? I mean, really? "This conversation is over because I SAY ITS OVER" Are you a moderator? Telling someone to "grow up" instead of responding with a thoughtful response just because they point out a hole in your argument is pretty juvenile.

I feel sorry for you to have such a nasty attitude towards people with differing opinions than yours. But again, I guess that might be one reason Kanye appeals to you.

Now, the conversation really is over, because I'm logging off. Ciao!

Well, he wasn't there, was he? Maybe it's BS, maybe not. But we all know how much MJ loves his awards. Even the made up ones.

Scorpion said:

co -

it was so wrong to have will.i.am throw in beat it, have quincy up there and no mj. I had a feeling these rumors were just to get people to tune in, and I fell for it again grrr

and no wonder the KOP board crashed, they're probably all crying too

Die hard and realistic MJ fan here. I think MJ fans need to stop waiting for 1980 thru 1988 MJ who was full of confidence and loved being on stage to just show up.

I honestly think MJ is having confidence problems with his appearance and not being on stage in so long. Plus the fact that he is close to 50 years old. Maybe he feels he can't do it like he used to,or maybe he is insecure about his appearance now.

I just say appreciate what he brought to the table when he was in his prime at the top of his game.

Oh I know Michael loves him some awards but it was a rumor that he would be appearing or performing, so I'm not really surprised especially since nobody didn't want to see Fergie and Akon do a tribute to Thriller
