So everyone's talking about the Grammys, and you didn't watch [it all] last night. Well, slacker, here's a little guide to get you by so you can join the conversation. Be sure to check the complete winners' list on page two.
Our favorite moments:
-Nate Ruess (from the band fun.) pulling a Forrest Gump by saying he needed to pee on national television during his acceptance speech. We think he should have at least scurried offstage to be more theatrical.
-Prince sauntering onstage wearing his signature dark glasses and carrying a cane. (He looked like a blind man.) We really enjoyed watching the celeb-filled audience cream their pants when they saw him.
-Kelly Clarkson's acceptance speech; it sounded akin to something Britney Spears would say after a night of dancing on a bar: "Miguel, I don't know who the hell you are, but we need to sing together. I mean, good god, that was the sexiest damn thing I've ever seen. What? Anyway, thank you so much . . ." [actual Clarkson quotation].
-Taylor Swift won our Most Enthusiastic Spectator Award. She was dancing in her seat all night long and singing along with the performers. How refreshingly obnoxious.
Bruno Mars' confirming what we thought all along: He is the estranged son of Michael Jackson and Sting. -Nate Ruess (from the band fun.) pulling a Forrest Gump by saying he needed to pee on national television during his acceptance speech.

Favorite part was when they turned off the "end your speech" music for Jay-Z. No one stops him from talking!

I hope LL Cool J's Momma tells him to knockout the Grammy writers.
