Last night’s Grammy’s were actually really good. Most award shows fall flat, but whoever put last night’s show together did a great job. The diversity was the best thing. There was pretty much something for everyone. Kanye’s songs, Amy Winehouse’s performances, the Beatle’s salute, and Beyonce/Tina Turner were my personal favorites.

Can you believe Herbie Hancock won album of the year? He basically pulled it right out from under a Kanye and Amy Winehouse tie, which is what I was pretty much demanding.

If you haven’t bought these two artist’s latest cds, do it now. Not only are they amazing works, they’re sure to become legendary as two of the greatest albums ever made. I’ve always been a huge, huge fan of Kanye’s and I’ve recently become a really big fan of Amy’s as well. Some people may not like everything they do (Amy) or say (Kanye) – but no one can ignore them or deny their talent.

Sure, Kanye loves himself some Kanye – but, personally I think that makes him who he is. The greatest entertainers and athletes in the world believe themselves to be. It all starts between the ears, first, you know. Believe it….then become it.

He’s outspoken, that’s a given, but if you listen to him – he makes a great deal of sense. The man’s incredibly smart and, in spite of how he may come across at times, he has a great deal of love and compassion in his heart.

That was certainly apparent in his tribute to his mom last night. It was beautiful and I cried right through every word of the song. I’m sure it took a lot of strength for him to get through it – ironically, strength that he got from his much beloved mother.

I was so glad they stopped the music during his acceptance speech when he started talking about his mother. I loved that he wasn’t about to let a little tacky elevator music stop him from what he wanted to say!

Amy Winehouse, of course, turns many people off with her personal life. But, that’s the thing – it’s her personal life. It shouldn’t affect how people perceive her as an artist. She has personal problems and demons that she has to wrestle. Hopefully she has a strong support system and people who love her and want to help her get well.

If she gets the help she needs, she’ll be one of the greatest, most entertaining artists ever. When she performs, she’s one of those artists you can’t take your eyes off of. Kind of like Cher, Tina Turner, and Cyndi Lauper – all rolled into one. She’s in my prayers. Can you imagine – having the love of your life (her Blake) sent away to jail? She seems positively lost without him.

I just hope there’s a happy ending for both of them.

If I had to sum up last night’s American Music Awards show, I’d say “Everyone totally humiliated themselves. In a very big way.”

Imagine a night where Lindsay Lohan wasn’t the worst performance. Yeah, that bad. Lindsay looked terrible, the girl has gotten far too skinny – but she looked like Beyonce Knowles compared to Hilary. At least Lindsay tried to sing live. Hil just moved her lips to the hideous sound passing for a song. Who ever told either of these girls that they could sing?

Rascal Flatts – horror show! They may have been even scarier than the Stones, but they didn’t reach the sheer frightfulness of Cyndi Lauper!

Even people who are normally on their game were bad . Keith Urban sounded like he’d be gargling acid, and looked like he’d poured the rest in his hair. Mariah acted….well…..weird. I’ve seen lots of people talking about how large she looked, and how she kept trying to angle the one leg forward to keep from showing her hips full on….but, personally, compared to Hil, Lindsay, and even my beloved Gwen – I thought the woman just looked “healthy,” and healthy’s a good thing. I just thought she acted kind of odd.

Speaking of acting odd, the Eurythmics also performed. Another Fright Sight, but at least she sounded good.

Kenny and Omarion were, IMO, the only good performances all night. Tim, Will and Kelly Rowland (my new girl crush) were gracious and sweet, although Tim seemed mad about something in his first acceptance. Something was steaming under his hat and I’d love to know what it was. Will was his usual brilliant, wonderful, splendid beautiful self. We need to clone the man. Shakira was also cute. Very pretty face.

But Kelly. She was flawlessly flawless and classy and beautiful. The face, the hair, the dress, the voice. Just about every female there should have just followed her lead and tried to copy her game plan.

First in line should be Gretchen. Good Lord, she wears the same dang thing to every show – jeans, that little black top, and her hair hanging the same. I’d love to see her AT LEAST wear a different color little top! Red would be pretty hot with the dark hair…

Anyway, back to Kelly. How could she not be the most searched, downloaded, and worshipped female on the planet? What? Is she too beautiful? Too talented? Too classy? For the love of all that’s right and fair in this world, get out there and Google this goddess, admire her pics, download her music, show her some love.

Okay, everyone except my husband – don’t you do any of that. Well, downloading the music’s okay, and you can take a quick look at the picture below……

Perfect One

…Okay, you’ve looked long enough.
