2017 Kennedy Center Honors

You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton

Trump didn't even attend. If a posthumous honor were allowed, it'd be idiotic to wait for Trump to be out of office to see Prince (a possible Republican anyway) nominated.

it's hilarious that Trump didn't attend lol He heard that several of these celebrities don't like him.Gloria Estefan,in fact,was planning to confront him about his immigration policies.Being the coward that he is,he backed out of it.

The sitting President usually has a reception at the White House. Trump pulled out months ago after Norman Lear and then Carmen de Lavallade said they would not attend. Gloria Estefan said she'd go, and speak to him about immigration.

Considering that Trump is such a divisive figure,I expect there to be controversy every year when they announce these events lol many celebrities can't stand him

Good looking out for these clips. I forgot about it. Looks like it was a great show. All honorees truly deserved it.

LL is still that hyper kid. (Busta needs a salad) Black Thought is that dude. Lyte still sounds great.

God bless Norman Lear. His empathy shone brightly with every show he produced.

Lionel has to be one of the greatest songwriters of all time (no Kanye). Luke Bryan did his material justice.

^^ love this. Was thinking Darius Rucker would have been a good choice for Lionel's stuff.

Misty Copeland's performance, amazing. That dress was a knockout.

Great show. I enjoy it every year. So glad the dumb ass president wasn't in attendance.
