I don't think I've ever watched the whole Grammy show but I'm guessing with the amount of performances/awards it must go on for like 8 hours like the Oscars.

[Brandon]

When Burke makes a long ass post like this and actually expects us to read it.

[Brandon]

I do hope Iggy wins a Grammy because of the meltdowns it'll spawn, though.

[Burke]

I don't get what's supposed to be the difference between record of the year and song of the year.

I want Fancy to win the awards it's up for. Mostly for Charli, though.

[Tarry]

I'm pulling for Childish Gambino. Because the Internet was such a good album.

[Deleted]

Stay With Me should be disqualified from every category since Sam Smith admitted to stealing Tom Petty's song and is now paying him royalties for it.

Or he can just win every award of the night. Smh. Fuck the Grammys. They really don't matter anyway.

[Brandon]

[Brandon]

I switched over to Housewives when Sia didn't win for Chandelier.

[Brandon]

Iggy may not have won, but I'm happy to see the results didn't go without meltdowns.

Honestly, I'm happy Beyoncé lost. I love her but I cannot stand the Beyhive, and Kanye being mad makes it even better.

Poor Kim being married to that mad man.

[Brandon]

[Mutant Couch]

lol How is he going to try to go in on Beck of all people about artistry?

[Deleted]

He should've just left it alone. It was a funny, almost redeeming moment. What an idiot.

[Brandon]

Kanye needs to sit his ratchet ass down and stop trolling everyone, everytime Beyonce lose an award. He better stop acting like a gay ATRL member and start taking care of his wife... I mean we can see her vajayjay on daily basis on every magazines, while he spending his time with his special friend screaming YAS BEYONCE YAAAAAS!
