grammies, anyone? let’s discuss.
i was tooling around online a litle after 8pm last night, and i realized that the grammies were on. i was tivo-ing american idol in the bedroom, so i headed into the living room to check out the awards.
- regrettably, i missed madonna and gorillaz. but i have not been a fan of her recent leotard phase, i must say.
- i tuned in just in time to see the adorable kelly clarkson win her first award. how cute was she? i totally got choked up along with her……shut up.
- coldplay was awesome. best i’ve ever seen them. and chris martin can actually smile and laugh! who knew?
- can somebody PLEASE help fergie with her hair? get the bitch a stylist.
- an open letter to teri hatcher: you are starting to look like joan rivers. NO MORE PLASTIC SURGERY. p.s.–nice rack.
- k. clarkson’s performance was phat. i love her 4-ever. so happy to see her win a second award!
- john legend did a beautiful job, and his acceptance speech was humble, sweet, and to the point. i really like him.
- don’t make me talk about sly and his family stone. it’s just sad.
- while i love both herbie hancock and christina aguilera, something about the pairing just didn’t work. props to both of them for trying. it was interesting enough.
- felt the same about U2/mary j…bad song choice. (sorry, i’m going totally out of order here, i know)
- kanye…oh, kanye, kanye, kanye…you are an egomaniac, but a fucking talented one. i love the gold-digger performance, except i guess i could have done without the gold-diggin’ hoes in the hot pants. but overall, great. LOVED the lavender suit and gold medallion.
- mariah scarey…i just don’t get it. i respect her overall, but all the songs i’ve heard off this current album sound exactly the same to me. i seriously cannot differentiate between we belong together and don’t forget about us until i hear those actual lyrics sung. it’s just become so mediocre with her, and not at all grammy-worthy. i will give credit where it’s due, though…she tore it up vocally by the end of her song last night.
- springsteen was springsteen…great.
- i think i might be in love with paul mccartney. he did helter/skelter!! sweet!! and when he appeared during jay z/linkin park i was in heaven.
- on that note, i was really glad the jay z/l.p. collaboration won a grammy. great song.
i can’t remember anything else, but if i do, i’ll add it. peace.

- ladies (and gents), click here for strength
- oooh, beemer been BAD!
- has anyone else read about this mccain/obama fight over the lobbying ethics issue? i think that mccain is confusing "partisan posturing" for someone simply disagreeing with him and his politics. thoughts?
- EDITED TO ADD: i love cool whip. i mean, i really, really love it. that is some seriously good whip.
