02.11.08Best Moment of the Grammys?
It wasn’t Kanye telling the music to “shut up” during his acceptance speech. It wasn’t the fact that Stevie Wonder was the best at reading the teleprompter. Nor was it Yoko Ono’s Monopoly Millionaire’s hat. No, none of these things. The best moment of the night was when Jimmy Jam faked us out like he was going to give an important/boring speech and instead busted out The Time! Morris Day, complete with mirror primping showed the youngsters how it’s done. What time is it, indeed.

02.10.08I Watched the Grammys So You Didn’t Have To
God, what a crappy show. And I watched it why? Cause Julie didn’t want to watch Sicko. Hey Grammys, don’t make it so obvious who’s going to win. The fun is that we might not know so when you have the winners always perform before they win, it really sucks to watch.
.
So Amy Winehouse went to rehab and is still acting like a coked out freak. Hey, looked like it worked. Also, am I the only one who smells a rat? She didn’t want to go to the Grammys so she worked it that she could do it at home with her set and the whole shebang. She wins, grammys lose. The Grammys sucked off the teet last night.
Memo to CBS: stop with the bullshit ads for Jericho that say “viewers wanted it back”. Everyone knows there is a writers strike and you have nothing else to run. Just say that - we’ll have so much more respect for you, liars.
Memo to newswriter at WGN: Don’t say “coming up: why writers might be trading in picket signs for typewriters”. No writer uses typewriters anymore. And don’t bury the story that the writers strike may be over at 9:40pm of the 9pm newscast.
I love that white singer Beyonce. She’s great. God, can someone tell her we loved her nose the way it was?
Another memo to CBS: Please o god please, stop parading your stars out on the stage. NCIS and Without a Trace secondary stars make me not want to watch CBS ever again.
Can I say that I missed Christina Aguilera? You always hope that a butt cheek might come loose.
Tina Turner turns 70 next year. Didn’t it seem like she was going to break a hip during her song? And what publicist let Aretha Franklin wear a bed sheet to the Grammys?
I won’t say anything about Kanye. We want him to be in a movie we wrote. So he’s awesome.

02.10.08Kanye West Makes All Men (and Women) Cry.So the Grammys gave Chicago Own’s Kanye West a chance to pay tribute to his mother who died earlier this year. This came right after him playing “Stronger” - and although the Interwebs were running amok with the rumors of him playing it - it still didn’t prepare the audience (at Staples and at home) for the emotion behind it.
Ok - I admit it, I’ve always like this song. So to see it now - yeah, in my opinion, has more feeling than Elton John singing the Princess Diana died song….

02.10.08Kanye West Kicks Ass (with Video!).Still working on the “Hey Mama” video - which brought the house DOWN at the Grammy’s - but until we get that chopped up - check out this clip of “Stronger” performed with Daft Punk.
Hey, it’s no secret we all love Kanye here at schad.net - so shut up - and watch the best performance of the evening so far (besides Kid Rock forgetting lyrics and Tina Turner coming close to breaking a hip..)
