Kanye West Called Out Grammys Because of Voices In His Head, Will Boycott Awards In Future

Posted in: , ,

Kanye went on the Ryan Seacrest radio show yesterday to explain why he rushed up to the Grammy stage when Beck was about to give his acceptance speech after he was announced as winning the Album of the Year award.

The closest the rapper came to an apology was to praise Beck for being a nice guy and well respected as a musician. Other than that, Kanye stuck to his guns, talked about voices in his head urging him to storm the stage. He even went further and said he would boycott the Grammys until they start to respect creativity. Read his rants below....

Rihanna @ Grammys 2015 - Chat With Blue Ivy, Sam Smith Kiss & More Favorite Moments

Posted in: , ,

Many joked about Rihanna's outfit to the 2015 Grammy Awards last night, where Rihanna stepped onto the red carpet in hot pink ballgown, with a very short bodice, and with a two-tiered, very full skirt. Memes began to fly immediately as many commentators said she looked like a beautiful Barbie birthday cake that little girls have at their birthday parties. Someone on my FB timeline shared such birthday cakes like the one above.

But Rihanna loved her gown like that, and has now shared some pictures on her Instagram from her favorite moments at the Grammys. She must have also had people asking her what she discussed with Beyonce's 3 year old daughter Blue Ivy in a cute moment they had that was captured on camera. You'll be shocked at Blue Ivy told her :)

Survivor Behind Katy Perry Grammy Performance Speaks Out

Posted in: , , ,

Katy Perry used her Grammy performance yesterday to shed some celebrity light on domestic violence and abusive relationships. From opening her Super Bowl half time show with Roar, the singer slowed it down and brought it home with a powerful rendition of “By the Grace of God” preceeded by a special guest, Brooke Axtell, a domestic violence survivor.

To show how serious DV is, President Obama actually gave a statement before the double act, about how influential artists can be to helping encourage victims of domestic abuse get help and change thinking. “Artist have a unique power to change minds and attitudes,” the President said.


Beyonce On Singing ‘Take My Hand, Precious Lord’ at Grammys [BTS Video]

Posted in: ,

I noted in my earlier post gushing over my favorite Grammys performances that while I loved Beyonce's ‘Take My Hand, Precious Lord’, some thought Ledisi should've done it. Now Beyoncé has posted an incredible behind-the-scenes video of her preparation for the Grammys performance. In the BTS video, Beyonce explains why she asked to sing the song  during the show’s ‘Selma’ tribute.

“My grandparents marched with Dr. King. My grandfather was a part of the first generation that attended the all-white school. My father has grown up with a alot of trauma from those experiences. I feel like now I can sing for his pain, I can sing for my grandparents pain. I can sing for some of the families that have lost their sons.”

Madonna's Raunchy Grammys Performance Of Living For Love - Yay or Nay?

Posted in: , ,

56-year-old Madonna stunned photographers and other celebrities alike when she walked the Grammys red carpet in a custom boob-baring Givenchy minidress. While adjusting the outfit, Madonna showed off her naked butt with only fishnet stockings covering it. The long time star who came to prominence in the 80s, later shared the photo above on her Instagram page writing, "holding on to my Grammys️ #livingforlove #bitchimmadonna."

During the awards ceremony, Madonna performed a sexually charged rendition of her song, Living For Love with male dancers with maleficient bull horns. Some think she's too old for such a raunchy show, and point to fellow 80's music star Annie Lennox as sometime who respects her age. Some called Madonna a 'Naughty Grandma'. What do you think?

Kanye West Rushes Grammys Stage After Beck Wins Album Of The Year, Criticizes Awards

Posted in: , ,

In a nod to his interruption of Taylor Swift at 2009's VMAs, Kanye West rushed up to the Grammys stage last night after Beck won Album Of The Year. As he accepted his award, Kanye appeared to want to take the mic from him and the audience feared he would once again rant that Beyonce should have won over Beck.

However, this time Kanye on getting to the stage decided against addressing the audience - which prompted many to think he was just poking fun at himself. Beyoncé and Jay Z’s reactions to the stunt too were priceless. See the videos below...

Grammys 2015 Take Me To Church! Annie Lennox, Beyonce, Common & John Legend, More...

Posted in: , ,

The Grammys have come and gone but the performances at the awards ceremony will continue to resonate for a very long time, till the next annual event, or maybe for all time! Like the performance by 80's rock & roller Annie Lennox of Take Me to Church / I Put a Spell On You with singer-songwriter Hozier. Amazing!

Beyonce also literally took us to church with her rendition of ‘Take My Hand, Precious Lord’ from the soundtrack of the movie Selma, though some complained that Ledisi who recorded it for the movie should also have done it on stage for the Grammys. But there were no complaints as John Legend and Common performed their own 'Glory', also from the same movie celebrating the 1964 Selma protest march.

Whitney Houston Gets Grammy Special for Anniversary

Posted in: , ,

Grammy organizers plan to mark the first anniversary of the sudden death of Whitney Houston with a behind-the-scenes TV show on how they scrambled to honor the singer just 24 hours after she died.

The Recording Academy said on Thursday that the hour-long special entitled "The Grammys Will Go On: A Death in the Family" will air on February 9, the day before the 2013 Grammy Awards ceremony in Los Angeles.

Houston, who sold hundreds of millions of records and scored the mega hits "I Will Always Love You" and "I Wanna Dance with Somebody," drowned in a bathtub at a Beverly Hills hotel room on February 11 2012 - the eve of last year's Grammy Awards show.
