I thought the show was waaay too long.
Highlights: the intro (Prince), EWF (WOW!!), P-Funk, Celine's performance (after the technical difficulties), OUTKAST (

), and Beyonce.
Lows: Christina's outfit for "Beautiful", 50 cent crashing Evanescense's moment (that was tacky AND ghetto) and the fact that they "uninvited" Janet, and Amy Lee's dress.
ETA: Justin had to apologize or else the Grammys would not let him perform.

And anyone who tried to address The Controversy was quickly shushed.. see the article in today's Washington Post..(
