Avabelle April 26, 2021 Share April 26, 2021 (edited) This is fucking awful. It's awkward. I'd also say it was rehearsed because they'd never do this off the cuff so the whole "wow, I wasn't expecting any of you to throw shade at the questions" stuff is so fucking fake.

Lady Whistleup April 26, 2021 Share April 26, 2021 One thing about Glenn CLose is that she's absolutely tiny. I saw her when she was leaving a performance of Sunset Boulevard. Definitely a tiny, petite lady who seems larger than life because of her personality. 2 1 Link to comment

blackwing April 26, 2021 Share April 26, 2021 Music trivia? Seems like now they just want filler. So odd. I admit I’ve been only half-watching so I was surprised to see Glenn Close still there. I didn’t think there was enough room in the station for all nominees so I thought they were rotating people in and out after their category passed. But are the “major” category nominees allowed to stay and the lesser ones get rotated out in the top row? Or is that room bigger than I thought? Link to comment
DollEyes April 26, 2021 Share April 26, 2021 Yay for H.E.R.! Love the movie, love the song and the lewk is Purple Rain realness. Glenn Close did Da Butt? My life is complete! 3 Link to comment

thuganomics85 April 26, 2021 Author Share April 26, 2021 I see they had time to add Helen McCoy and DMX to the In Memoriam. Not surprised they saved Chadwick Boseman for last. Still can't believe that he's gone already: especially since it seemed like he was only just getting started after years of hard work. Just so sad. 4 Link to comment
