A night of pure Grammy gold for Taylor

Grammy Awards are to the music world, what the Oscars are to filmdom. Not surprisingly, the 52nd Annual Grammy Awards held on Sunday night at the Staples Center in Los Angeles, saw a turnout befitting the much-awaited mega music event.

Adding glitz to the glam event were the biggies Jennifer Lopez, Quentin Tarantino, Robert Downey Jr, Jay Z, Sheryl Crowe, Lionel Richie, Hollywood heavyweight Nicole Kidman, who looked pleased and mighty proud of hubby Keith Urban as he picked a Grammy award for the Best Male Country vocal performance for Sweet Thing, Seal with Heidi Klum who looked ultra hot in a thigh-high mini-dress having shed all of her pregnancy weight, Ashanti, Kristen Bell, Adam Sandler, Ricky Martin, Wyclef Jean, Rihanna, Li’l Wayne, Miley Cyrus, Ringo Starr and Jonas Brothers among others. Katy Perry was seen flashing her engagement ring on the red carpet. Looking very Indian, the singer completed her look with a gold bindi. It was a proud moment for all Indians as AR Rahman once again scooped two Grammys for Slumdog Millionaire. It was an emotional moment for Paris Catherine and Prince Michael Jackson as they accepted an honorary Grammy for their late dad, the King of Pop Michael Jackson. Jennifer Hudson, Celine Dion, Smokey Robinson, Usher, and Carrie Underwood even sang a tribute to Michael Jackson. Among the loads of wins and tears, spicing up the night were the performances by Taylor Swift, Slash, Jamie Foxx, Eminem, Mary J Blige, Green Day, The Black-Eyed-Peas, Bon Jovi, Elton John and the woman of the moment Beyonce. Pink’s gravity-defying performance was quite predictable, while Lady Gaga’s atrocious dress as always made more heads turn as did her music.

It was a night of pure Grammy gold for songstress Beyoncé, who picked up six wins, a record for a female artrist, including Song of the Year, Best Female Pop Vocal Performance, Best Female R&B Vocal Performance, Best Traditional R&B Vocal Performance, Best R&B Song, and Best Contemporary R&B Album. Taylor Swift found it hard to balance her four Grammys, and she even ended up dropping one.
