Ms.Moon January 27, 2020 Share January 27, 2020 1 hour ago, Nordly Beaumont said: A note to Tanya Tucker's makeup team; if you lose her blush - don't substitute bronzer. I saw her face when she walked the red carpet and did a double take. Her makeup made me think of that scene in Drop Dead Gorgeous when Amber is doing the makeup of the dead woman and her boss tells her that she needs to glob on the makeup because her family was upset because she didn’t wear subtle makeup at all. There are ways to make bronzer work but whoever did Tanya Tucker’s makeup didn’t know how to do that. Also Shania Twain’s face has settled her fillers or whatever she has done looks much better than the last time I saw her at an awards show. 5 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/21816-the-annual-grammy-awards-general-discussion/page/38/#findComment-5894451

Crazydoxielady January 30, 2020 Share January 30, 2020 (edited) I am so angry watching these white washed Grammies. I saw Lizzo live in Boston, amazing. It is HER YEAR. Get the heck out of town with this whispy voiced teen taking the majority of awards. I was disappointed Brittany Howard was relegated to just play guitar for Alicia. Her new album Jaime is beautiful, I also saw her live this year, and its shame she didn't get to perform on her own merit. That said, Alicia did a great job hosting. She set a lovely relaxed tone, if at times a bit indulgent and slow.... Diddy is right. The Grammies have 365 days to get this right. Otherwise the "esteemed" grammy awards will just be "the white people awards." I also thought Tyler the creator was correct in stating getting a rap or urban award is like say the N word. I am so sick of the amazing artists of color getting the damn shaft. On a funny note, my husband walked in the room and said "why does Alicia Keys always look like she has the damn flu?"

And of course the last Rap/Hip Hop album to win AOTY was Outkast's Speakerboxxx/The Love Below, in 2004. Kanye West had a 96 metacritic score for My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy and wasn't even nominated for AOTY. Kendrick had a 95 for DAMN and lost to Bruno Mars whose album got good to okay reviews.

I love Brittany, but I kinda miss her hard rock days. I'm not sure I'm totally with her with her new sounds. It's also too bad she sorta disappeared halfway through that number. I was recently looking for Alabama Shakes tour schedule to find it was only Brittany who was touring. Not sure about this......IDK. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/21816-the-annual-grammy-awards-general-discussion/page/38/#findComment-5904089
