Ugh.  She’s doing this as Gaga; I was hoping for more Ally.  Nothing against Gaga but.

Same here. As soon as I saw her outfit, I thought, "Oh no. Please change into jeans and a t-shirt." Still love the song, though.

Janelle politely clapping in her square hat made me guffaw. 

Having said that, I like that song much better as a duet. Is she normally like that when she performs? Because I was gonna see her in Vegas hahaha. I need to know!

I think she's doing two shows in Vegas, one more subdued (for lack of a better word in my small word arsenal) and one more flashy.  So you can pick the Gaga you're looking for.

I like Gaga and love the song, but that performance seemed rather herky-jerky (a la Joe Cocker).  Agree a more nuanced performance (jeans and tee) would be more fitting.   As I sit here on my bed in front of the TV. 😜😜😜

Good to know. Thanks for the info!

I liked the glam rock look especially after all the press about how Bradley was able to elicit her performance by not allowing her to wear makeup for the role.  I kept on seeing this back in the fall and it made me skip the movie.  I see this performance as a subtle FU to all the journalists who reported on this.  Whether barefaced or full on glam, Gaga has talent.

What?  JLo doing the Motown tribute????!!!    No.  She is not worthy.

Like Miley doing the Dolly tribute. Please.

At least Miley has some connection to Dolly (she's her goddaughter).

Like, if she wanted to sing the songs, great, fine.  But Motown songs do not need to be sexed up, and I don’t care how fuddy-duddy that makes me sound.

Agreed. I think they had to do that to make up for the um...lack of talent otherwise.

Only tuned in for the last couple of performances, but now I feel the need to cleanse my ears by blasting some rock music. Also reminding me that I don't know who half these 'musicians' are.

Mumbling + auto-tune does not = music. 

Also, what a disgrace to Motown.

I need to stop looking at Twitter. People are having emotional meltdowns and dying of pride for that group of BTS boys.... for presenting an award. What dimension am I in? 

I looked up their ages. I was sure they were tweens. One is 25.

Need more wine.

Ok did they just say there are four awards left, PLUS the Aretha tribute, PLUS “In Memoriam?”  This show will end tomorrow.

Also I keep seeing on Twitter that Fantasia is part of the Aretha tribute and  nope.

Oh great. Nightmares tonight. (Us commercial)

I have to look away from the TV when it comes on...which is way too often.

Show goes till 11:30 - although I still think that will be pushing it. 

I may need more wine..

There's still three more awards, plus the In Memoriam and Aretha Franklin tribute? This is going way past 11:30.

Why are the Oscars the only show that gets mocked for its length?? All the other awards shows are at least three hours, this one's going to be pushing four.
