The Grammys: Who Broke the Rules!

“Please be sure that buttocks and female breasts are adequately covered.” – CBS Program Practices

“My God Portia, she has BACON in there!”

The 55th Annual Grammy Awards were relatively conservative this year. Most of the attendees DID comply with CBS’s wardrobe rules and dressed appropriately for prime-time television. Some of the ladies found ways to show off their assets and not “bust” over the line. Others just couldn’t help themselves!

Katy Perry and Kelly Rowland both decided that they paid way too much for their “assets” to not show them off. I don’t blame them. Where else, but the Red Carpet, can you show them off? By the way, Kelly Rowland is on my “Best Dressed” list. I love those shapely cut-outs. Katy Perry said she was inspired by Priscilla Presley’s look from the 70′s, with her big black hair and thick eye lashes. Boyfriend John Mayer was all decked out in royal blue velvet, looking nothing like Elvis. Not even any blue-suede shoes!

Taylor Swift started the show off with a BANG! She belted out her sung-to death song “We Are Never, Ever Getting Back Together.”, BUT she did it with a twist. This time it had a harder, more spiteful edgy tone to it. She even slipped into an English accent once, imitating her most recently departed boyfriend! HA! She’s such a bitch…. for all the world to see. I LOVE it!

“So he calls me up and he’s like, I still love you, and I’m like, I’m sorry but I’m busy opening up the Grammy’s and we’re never getting back together!”

 Taylor Swift changed the words to her famous song just for the opening of the show! The theme of her elaborate performance was “Alice in Wonderland” with her dancers all decked out in Wonderland characters, while her ex-boyfriend was restrained on a spinning wheel.

 

Here’s Taylor Swift on the Red Carpet. I think her white gown is very elegant and the silver trim is a nice accent. I think she’s a “Best Dressed”. Alicia Keys, in her black leather-strapped dress, is also stunning. Her look is a bit more mature, but has the same effect. She’s also a “Best Dressed”.

    There was no Chris Brown/Frank Ocean rematch, but did you see that Chris Brown was the one person in the theater that wasn’t giving Frank Ocean a standing ovation as he crossed RIGHT IN FRONT OF HIM to accept the award? Of course. Douchebag. UGH

    There is something up with JT’s face on the red carpet picture. He kinda looks like Harry Potter. Is he already dipping into the botox?

    I’m not usually a J-Lo fan and didn’t love her dress, but I did laugh when she came out in the dress and said “so I read the memo.”

    Overall, I thought the performances were quite good. I didn’t watch it all so I will go back and watch LL’s performance at the end, but I heard he put on quite a show.

    Also, I love that Kelly Clarkson is still just an awkward girl. Her acceptance speech cracked me up.

    Johnny Depp just looks like an idiot. Adele obviously fired her stylist and needs to do so again. Hated J-Lo’s dress, Beyonce looks like she forgot where she was going. I loved Rhianah’s dress but can’t seem to get past her and Chris Brown, it’s just too gross.
    As usual chooch I agree with everything you wrote!!

    I look forward to this recap everytime there is an Award’s Show.I feel so fashionable when you agree with me.

    The Ellen, Portia and Katey caption really made me LOL and I am not normally a LOL’er.

    I thought Rhianna looked like a china doll. Before you made me focus on her forehead!

    Taylor looked awful in her gladiator get up. But then again, if Taylor Swift rescued a drowning kitten I probably still wouldn’t like her even if she was wearing something fab when she did it.

    Thanks Chooch

    Taylor Swift needs to go the F$#@ away. Love JT but this time around not so much, he’s looking like a game show host these days with way too much makeup on.

    Justin Timberlake looks like a low-rent Robin Thicke. He just happens to be a better dancer.

    I tuned in to watch, just in time to year Taylor’s m/f’ing “we will never ever yada yada yada” If I never ever hear that song again, I will be blessed.

    I didn’t watch the Grammy’s but love this recap, it sums up everything. Please tell me we are going to get this same type of recap after the Oscars.

    I’m on the fence about Rhianna. What people do in their own relationships is their own business. However, Rhianna has become someone that is in the public eye and a lot of girls look up to. This is where is gets bad. She is telling these girls (and some women) that being in an abusive relationship (not just mentally but physically) is okay. Both Chris and Rhianna (especially since she got back together with him) are always going to be remembered for the physical abuse that happened. There are famous people out there who do not exposes every aspect of their personal lives and they are happy. But then there are publicity hungry celebs who show it all, then get mad and think their privacy is being violated. You can’t have both.

    I honestly think that Kanye released (aka tipped paparazzi off) those photos of him and kim in Brazil to have it look like he was better than the Grammy’s (or that he was upset he wasn’t invited).

    Angelina’s leg was ridiculous at the Oscars last year, but it was semi okay because the slit did not go all the way up to her crotch. J-Lo’s leg was dumb. It looked bad, not because it looked like a normal woman’s leg, but because the entire leg was out. And yes, I totally agree, her entire look (head to toe) was something I would expect kim k to be wearing.

    CBS released that memo the week before the Grammy’s. That is not fair to any of the women. Some of these gowns/dresses/outfit have been in the planning/making stages for weeks. So to announce right before that they might have to wear something else is a little mean.

    Kanye was nominated for Ni**as in Paris. He would have been invited to the event. For whatever reason he just decided not to go.
