Grammy’s 2010

So many performers for the Grammy’s 2010, and I have to say it’s been one of the best Grammy’s performances I’ve seen in a very long time. The entire show kept you wanting more and waiting for the next talented performer to get on stage. From Pink’s in the air routine to Jamie Fox’s opera, to the Black Eyed Peas putting on an amazing performance. The list just goes on and on.

My thoughts:

I agree with most of the choices of who won and who deserved to win, however there is one that truly bothers me. Don’t get me wrong I like Taylor Swift but Album of the Year, really??? Over the Black Eyed Peas, Beyonce, and Lady Gaga, I just don’t see it. I also don’t see how she won Best Country Vocal Performance against Carrie Underwood & the others who were nominated for that category. I mean really, have you compared the two??? I just don’t see it, I wonder who votes for the Grammy winners. Other then that, I was really happy with who won, Jason Mraz, just LOVE HIM, Won 2 Grammy’s. Beyonce made history with the most Female Artist who won in one night, and Everyone who won were great performers. The night was great, One of the best I’ve seen in a long time! It’s going to be a great 2010!
