Grammys 2012

First off, rest in peace, Whitney Houston, Queen of Pop. Her passing was a very sad moment in our family history. My mom honestly feels like Whitney was one of her closest friends and as someone who grew up with her beautiful voice floating throughout my home, I feel as if I’ve lost someone important to my life as well. Her memory will live on forever in our hearts and we will always love her.

Onto the Grammys, anyone who knows me knows that I live for awards shows. All of them. Any of them. I watch them all (well, there are a few I can’t sit through…). I especially love the glamourous ones, such as the Grammys, where everyone wears gowns and tuxedoes. I don’t usually bother with worst dressed because why bother talking about something I don’t like? That is unless it’s especially heinous…

Unfortunately, no one really wowed me on the red carpet. All of the risks were bad ones and all of the good outfits were super safe. The best of the night for me was Jessie J. Although I hated her hair and the dress was average, the reflecting silver was beautiful.

Of course, my favorite performance was Jennifer Hudson. It was an emotional moment for all of us and I think the subtle way J. Hud sang showed that, as she was on the verge of tears the entire way through. Then, after that, Adele because I worship her and almost everyone else was either boring or annoying (I’m talking to you Nicki Minaj). I wish I could post the video but, you know, the copyright police are all over YouTube. So, here’s a link to one on Perez Hilton’s gossip blog.

What was your favorite (or least favorite) Grammy moment, outfit, or performance?
