Brief Thoughts on The 2010 Grammys

I’m not usually one for discussing award shows the day, or several days, after they happen – but I figured since TheWaitingRoom is generally considered a music blog, I should say something about the Grammys. Here are my brief thoughts on The 2010 Grammy Awards.

Congrats Beyonce! Easily one of the hardest working people in show biz! For those who haven’t heard, she now holds the record for the most Grammy wins in one night (6) for a female artist!

Gaga deserved to win at least one award that was shown on the main show. First they disqualify her for the Best New Artist field, but nominate her for most of the big awards, then only give her pre-show awards? That’s just disrespectful. Her performance with Sir Elton? Historical.

Pink – um, that was cool, but didn’t we see this already at the 2009 MTV VMA’s?

Who saw that giant smile Jay-Z gave Beyonce when she won her final award of the night, Best Female Pop Vocal Performance for “Halo”? That smile was worth a thousand words – that man is truly enamored by that woman – and it made me smile too.

Taylor Swift is the most overrated artist of our time – she better thank Kanye in her next album liner notes for all these pity awards. I was already somewhat underwhelmed back when they announced the nominees for Album of the Year, but Sunday night when I heard Taylor Swift’s name announced as the winner – my heart sunk.

One last thought – I can’t wait for next year when Kanye and Xtina are in full effect. I’m sure the show will be very interesting!

PS: When the best part of a tribute is the pre-recorded vocals of the person you’re tributing, you know something is… off. I love Michael Jackson, I love “Earth Song”, but I did not love that tribute. And was it me, or was only about 7 seconds of it actually in 3D? Thank God those 3D glasses from Target were free, but the gas I used to drive to Target was a waste.

Janet Jackson just performed on England’s X Factor, an American Idol-like singing competition – and all I can say is that this is what the American Music Awards performance should’ve been; From the stage, the outfit, the dancing, the energy – everything is on point here. Thank you Janet for really bringing it and dancing your ass off – we knew you could do it!

Lady Gaga also performed on X Factor – you can watch her performance of her hit “Bad Romance” after the break! Both ladies really brought it tonight - damn, Europe gets all the good stuff!

I wouldn’t doubt it if someone told me that at one time I vowed never to post anything on TheWaitingRoom about Lady Gaga. I also wouldn’t doubt that this isn’t the first time I’ve been wrong. Enjoy Lady Gaga’s amazing video for her new single, “Bad Romance”, off her upcoming album, ‘The Fame Monster’, which is part re-release and part new album, in stores Nov. 23rd.
