I’m With Wendy

MOJ Missing at the GrammysI may be a little late to commenting on the Grammys, but watching my evening Wendy update (are you watching the Wendy Williams show with me?) last night, I found that I agreed with her statement.

What was it? Let’s break out the milk carton. Remember the “Have you seen _______” or the “Missing” signs on the milk cartons? Nearly everyone consumes milk, no? So let me know… have you seen these gals and fellas at the Grammys?

Mariah Carey and Whitney Houston were not nominated, but surely, if the cast of the Jersey Shore snags an invite… well you know.

Chris Brown and Kanye West (and Amber Rose) were absent. Huge shrug here. Reminds me of foolishness like Justin Timberlake hitting up shows after the ‘football fiasco’ and Janet Jackson going AWOL.

Did you miss any of them at the Grammys? Did you even watch?

I personally watched it and had an unimpressed shrug to take away from it but watched performance recaps of the BET Awards and kicked myself for missing it.

Your verdict?

Grammy Mindset

I’m gearing up to check out the Grammy’s. The Red Carpet show is on E! and the show hits in two hours for me. No idea what your television plans are, but all tvs will probably have this on today.

Last year we had a whole bunch of ups and downs. M.I.A displayed a crazy work ethic when performing while ready to pop.

The downs? Well we remember the Chris Brown and Riri absence at the show and the brouhaha that followed it (I refuse to discuss this by the way!).

So what are the memories for this year?

Beyonce has 10 nominations. Taylor Swift has 8 (and if she beats anyone more deserving, Kanye will not, I repeat NOT stand up). Lady Gaga 6. The ladies are ruling the charts. There is a 3D Michael Jackson tribute (really? We’ve come far in television!), and we have Pants on the Ground Man from American Idol performing on the red carpet. Kathy Griffin said her Carolina Herrera came from a sample sale and attributed her full hair to “magic hair.”

Who are you rooting for?
