I've finally returned to this sorely neglected blog of mine and given it a much-needed facelift. I've been dabbling a bit with Tumblr in the meantime, just as a quick receptacle for random stuff I come across while cruising the Web. I'm going to try to get back to posting more regularly on here as well.
In the spirit of getting back into the swing of things, I thought I'd post the Grammy performance everyone was raving about - and no, I don't mean Bieber and Usher. I love to hate the Grammys, and I watched the entire show this year (aka had the TV on in the background). Between Lady Antebellum's truckload of awards for their blatant rip-off of a song and Lady Gaga's public ego massage, the Grammys were proving to be every bit as annoying as I expected them to be.
Enter: Eminem. You know the Grammys must be just a big joke to him. I mean, obviously he gets nominated and makes his obligatory appearances each year, but I bet after the lights go down and he heads home with his awards, he's like, "What a fucking joke." But hey, recognition by the academy is obviously good in the business, even if it is one big ridiculous parade and all the players are perfectly aware of it.
This performance alone made up for the other three hours that I would have likely fast-forwarded through if I were so technologically advanced as to have DVR (but no, instead I was forced to endure endless commercials and Bob Dylan's painful performace, as if it's still 1995).
p.s. The star of the show who in my opinion managed to outshine Rihanna was Miss Skylar Grey. Two things: a) where can I find the badass pants she's wearing, and b) What. A. Voice.
I prefer her version of this song, which obviously she wrote herself, as you can hear it/feel it in her voice:
