The Grammys 2012

DynamiteRave · 02-12-2012, 07:35 PM

Well, I'm watching the Grammys tonight, which'll probably end up a giant ode to Whitney Houston, but I'm hoping some acts at least perform a song or 2 that they're known for. And at least the awards portion should be interesting.

Anyone else watching? Rooting for anyone in particular? Kanye West leads the amount of nominations with 7.

Not watching. Never do.

also. F kayne west. Hope he wins so somebody can run up there and snatch the mic from him and tell him that somebody else should have won. Guy is a first rate douche bag. Hope he trips and falls flat on his face. I still like his music though..lol

I'll second that. Also I read an article today (might be posted in the WH thread) that said they are planning on doing a simple tribute to Whitney, since she just died yesterday. Not that I'm concerned though since I won't be watching.

Also, in regards to your Kanye section, I can't hate on him too much. I love his music, and I think he's just too honest for own his own good sometimes. Which obviously portrays him as a d-bag since his brutal honesty makes him look bad, i.e. in the Taylor Swift case. But either way, I can't hate on people who are honest even to a fault. I'd rather they be brutally honest every time.

I have no problems with his brutal honestly (even though he's wrong at times), but I had a HUGE problem with him going on stage when somebody else won an award and snatches the mic stealing their spotlight. That's not brutal honesty, that's a being a prick and disrespectful.

I dunno if he was being brutally honest during the Taylor Swift incident. I think I'm more with NC Skins in that he was just being an asshat. It seems like he never knows the right time to be honest. Like the Katrina incident... I mean I dunno. I hope there's a good hearted, well intentioned guy somewhere within Kanye West, but everything about him screams, "Pay attention to me and respect me! I'm edgy and opinionated."

looking forward to seeing the Foos

Adele's probably going to sweep or come very close to it. Well deserved though.

I think it's a little bit of both. Part of it is just him being brutally honest, part of it is probably him being an attention whore as well. In the end, he is who he is, and what we've come to expect from him probably isn't going to influence him. He does stupid things like the Swift incident partly because of his opinion, and partly because of his ego. I didn't agree with it either when it happened but it's not gonna change anything.

I like how Jason Aldean's mic went out and Kelly Clarkson had to finish the song.

Ruhskins · 02-12-2012, 08:55 PM

Also watching the Grammys, and like DRave I think Adele is going to sweep things up like Norah Jones did a few year ago. Although I actually know who Adele is this time. LOL.

most of it is he's a total douche... his live show is basically just him on stage... he won't even let the audience see the band (who have to hide under the stage and out of sight), cause he wants to make sure everyone is looking at him and only him.

Soooo, back to the Grammys...I liked that Rihanna/Coldplay duo there

I'm really liking how most people are singing live.. Well. Not Chris Brown but... Rihanna was a little pitchy but not bad for having danced her entire performance.
