WEST COAST PEOPLE, DO NOT READ THIS!!!!!!!!




































Alicia and Jamie - I was very surprised that I enjoyed the performance, because I generally don't like Jamie.

Kayne West/Mavis Staples/John Legend/Five Blind Boys of Alabama -- I absolutely hated the entire thing. I don't like Kanye as a rapper first of all. I thought the church scene could have gone in a better direction -- the choreography was horrid and seemed thrown together. Although I don't generally like the sound of John Legend's voice, I appreciated his performance. On the other hand, one of the Five Blind Boys sounded absolutely dreadful, like nails on a blackboard. Mavis Staples was adequate, but there were several times that she sounded like Weezie Jefferson.

Joss Stone and Melissa Etheridge -- brilliant. LOVED THEM. I wasn't quite sure if Joss was trying to steal the second song though, Melissa was looking at her kind of sideways. Also, I know that Melissa is battling cancer, so I appreciated the fact that she was rocking the bald head with not a second thought.

Kevin Bacon looked weird, but kind of cute. Ludacris was a little overdressed or something.

Adam Sandler and Nelly presented the award for best R&B performance and Prince won. As usual, he wasn't there. Nelly accepted the award on his behalf and said "Well, Prince isn't here, so....oooooo-oooooo!!!" (He did the Prince call -- I almost died laughing.)

Is it just me, or is Queen Latifah getting her bosoms back?

U2 was okay, but I wasn't paying close atention.

I changed the channel because I have a short attention span.
