Last night the 51st annual Grammy Awards took place. I was so eager to watch. The Grammy’s is not what it used to be and with so many of my favorite acts performing and presenting I couldn’t wait. Turns out it didn’t quite deliver the excitement I expected. I must congratulate winners Jennifer Hudson who delivered an emotional performance, Ne-Yo, Adele, Al Green, who also gave a good performance with Justin Timberlake, Rick Rubin, Mary J. Blije, Alicia Keys, Chrisette Michele, Estelle (excellent performance of American Boy) and Lil Wayne (shivers).
Jamie Fox, Ne-Yo, Smokey Robinson and Duke Fakir-the surviving member of the Four Tops-did a wonderful job at performing the groups hits like Sugar Pie Honey Bunch (you can’t help but smile when you hear that one).
A highlight for me was my favorite rapper, Mr. LL Cool J, who is set to star in a spin off of NCIS this coming fall. Ladies, that means we get to see him weekly.
There were some noticeable absences: Usher, Chris Brown and Rihanna.
Here are a few pictures from the red carpet.
