The Grammys last night had a problem.  Actually, they had a lot of problems and I am about to address some of them right now.

First of all, the Grammys need to follow the Golden Globes lead and what the Oscars have done for years and that is go LIVE around the United States and the World.  We are living in an Internet world where people use Twitter and Facebook to converse and we have friends in different states that are watching it live while we wait for 3 hours, but we see them tweet about performers and awards. 

As we become more advanced, the need for LIVE shows is more important.  Trust me, people on the West Coast get screwed on finding out the results of American Idol as well. 

The Grammys were so heavy on commercials that it made me wish I DVR’d them instead of wanting to watch them live.  That was some lameness right there.  You don’t have a host so it cut down on time, but it doesn’t help when we are getting 15 minutes an hour of commercials. 

 If you guys are so strapped for cash then maybe you need to come up with this: “Here is the Best New Artist Award, brought to you by Target.  Target.  Where you get crap for less.”  I mean you are already commercialized so much any way, we wouldn’t really notice and then you would not have to go to a break so quickly.

Another thing is Adam Lambert got so much crap from censors about his performance at the American Music Awards.  You want to know what is more annoying to me?  When the Black Eyed Peas are performing and you hear about 10 seconds of dead audio because they just had to curse.  That was sooooo 1993. 

The Lil Wayne, Eminem and Drake performance was even worse.  It is not enjoyable at home and I am ALL about artistic expression but B.E.P. and Em, Wayne, and Drake, your performances were straight booty because you not being professional enough to keep it clean for TV.  It is the most annoying thing to not have audio for that long.  Can’t you think of other words that rhyme with duck or lit or pucker?  Come on now.  Show your versatility.

Lastly, the Grammys gave out a BUNCH of awards before the show.  Taylor Swift’s first ever Grammy was given before the show aired.  We missed her excitement.  Lady Gaga did not win any awards on the telecast but actually won 2 before the show.  Maxwell won R & B male but we did not see it.  Jay Z won two awards for D.O.A. and Eminem won for best rap album but we did not know.

Toby Keith talked about the grammys not giving Country music respect.  Sorry, but  for R & B music and Rap music categories to be ignored the way they have is horrible. 

A message to the Grammys, the MTV Awards, The American Music Awards, the TV networks and Award show producers need to figure this out and make some changes or the Grammys next year won’t be in my home, they can go home.-Dr.FB

Taylor Swift could not hold on to her Grammys last night.  The 4 time winner last night (her first 2 were given out before the show and she was even more excited then.)

The grammy falling mid-air is an instant classic photo and her look of surprise of “oh sheeeet, it’s gonna break” is funny.

Where’s Kanye when you need him?-Dr.FB

It started off well, but the Elton John duet was not all it was cracked up to be to me. I usually love Lady Gaga’s performance but not this time.

What did you think?-Dr.FB

Without even seeing the performance, just looking at these photos alone, you can see why I think Pink had the performance of the night.

Sorry Lady Gaga, you started out strong but the musical duet with Elton John did not go over so well with me and others.  I still love ya, but it’s the truth.  Pink may not have one a grammy, but she won the night.-Dr.FB

Thanks for joining in on the Grammy Chat!!

We will most likely have one for the Oscars….-Dr.FB

This Sunday, when the Grammys are happening, we are going to have a live chat room on the site. 

We will have the chat room open for both the East Coast and West Coast feed.

So come back here on Sunday around 8 P.M. East Coast time for the fun and stay for a while.  You never know if someone may just pop in.

Look forward to seeing you all this Sunday!-Dr.FB

It is being rumored that Elton John and Lady Gaga will perform together.  Is that the couple that will kick off the show?

I was really hoping it would have been Madonna & Lady Gaga but that is just me.   Elton is a great musician and Gaga has some piano skills. 

I can see it now; Gaga dressed as Elton and Elton dressed as Gaga.  That would be so cool….and at the same time…..a nightmare coming to life.

What do you think of the Elton & Gaga duet combo?

Eminem & Lil Wayne

We can confirm Eminem will be performing at this years Grammy Awards Sunday.

It will be a performance with Lil Wayne, Drake & Travis Barker.

Drfunkenberry.com will be interactive on Sunday during the show.  More news on that soon.-Dr.FB

The Janes Addiction Cabinet Of Curiosities Box Set we featured first on this site has been nominated for a Grammy. 

We want to send congrats to Mathieu Bitton and Rhino Records for their nomination and hoping they win.  I also want to thank Mr. Bitton and Rhino for debuting the set here before anywhere. 

Good luck Grammy night.-Dr.FB

Katy Perry announced a few nominees last night at the Grammy event.

I am not sure if she will win a grammy in January, but from the looks of her dress, she already has two Golden Globes.-Dr.FB
