For those of you who think they are sleeping together, come on now. That is obviously a big brother/lil sister relationship. The Grammy’s are the biggest awards in Music. Yeah, she’s won some other awards, but this is the biggest of the big. Like the Oscars. Obviously she was nervous. And OBVIOUSLY, he wanted her to go up there to get her shine. And Even more obvious he didn’t want to go up there, because some of you idiots were going to start assuming they holding hands, they FU**ING. Come on now.

You can tell by their body language that there is nothing going on sexual between the two. They move nothing like Be does with Jay, where you can obviously see that they together.

Also, look as they were on the stage. He translating for her, messing with her about her accent, she holding him back when she realized what he was doing. And as they were leaving the stage, you can see her messing with him by shoving him for doing all that. JUST LIKE a Brother /Sister would.

Jeez.

She needs to be embarassed.

I agree with #6 first sentence, I didnt find it awkward in real time, he was paer of the song she wanted him there. Blk ppl always wana start something… smh

I thought it was one of the best ones in years. It sounds like you may have a bias towards black music, because if you can that Foo Fighters and Rhapsody in Blue performance lackluster I don’t know what to tell you. B and Tina was cool as well.

I think that Jay-Z was kind of being weird about the entire situation. Like him and Rihanna had something going on. But I did peep the side eye Solange gave Rihanna as she pulled him away.

Kanye’s acceptance speech at first came off a little cocky, and I quote “I told Common to stop dropping his albums the same year as me. He’s never going go win”. But towards the end he cleaned it up.

AMEN #38! Anyone will look intelligent around fools. Nas needs to get over himself he is no Malcolm, he has no movement!

Kanye is a little to arrogant for his own good. Nobody owes him anything, including extra time to deliver his little speech. If Kanye has to “demand” respect, you have to wonder whether about that. Real respect doesn’t have to be demanded. One can “command” respect, not just by talent, but by attitude and relationships. He probably would get a lot further if he would humble himself a bit.

I didn’t think it was an awkward moment, i actually thought it was very cute, sort of a brother/sister relationship. Pple need to calm the hell down! At least rihanna has some personality, unlike frigid Beyoooonnnnce!

Where 2 start? lawd knows I love the drama lmao. I didn’t really care 4 solange until last night that look was so damn funny. I think jay didn’t want rumors and also I think jay is attrackted to riri whether she knows it or not and he knows he shouldn’t but damn she so f!$ken fine!! I love kayes music but like some 1 else said he lil to cocky say about droppin another album da same time as him. wtf wit nas

Rhianna…Looked very pretty as usual…Loved the hair styles and dresses…I don’t say this about many women but the girl is sexy…Still tired of the “Umbrella” song but her performance was ALOT better than her previous ones…She didn’t look as stiff and looked more comfortable on stage…

Alicia, i liked both of her performances…Especially the one with her and Frank Sinatra…

Kanye’s tribute song to his mother…Almost got me a little teary eyed…I could tell he was trying to hold it together…I’m proud of him, i couldn’t have done it if i was him.

Beyonce and Tina’s performance was ok…I was expecting more…

Carrie Underwood’s performance…I hate to do comparisons but she ain’t my girl Christina Aguillera….Carrie has a more powerful voice than i thought but i would have respected her alot more if she wasn’t lip singing…

THE TIME…OMG…LOL…i was pleasantly suprised….I can’t front, i had to turn the t.v up way loud when they came on and tried to mimick their signature dance…This was by far one of my favorite performances on the night…

Nas & Kelis = HLARIOUS

LMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well i’m re-watching it now. I do think Jay was trying to distance himself. Because he knew how that would look. And as u can see my here and other blogs… she should of chilled. I knew she’s young but after all the rumors and what not? I think she likes the attention. But what i did just notice. The next category best record of the year. they did a shot of jay and rih when they were announing the nominees, Jay rolled his eyes when they read umbrella. Well bey was in the same category. I guess it would of been akward if umbrella won and not irreplaceable.

DAMN SOMEONE YOU TUBE IT, CUS I NEED TO SEE THIS MESS!! I MISS ALL THE GOOD DRAMA!

IT WAS A LITTLE AWKWARD…BUT RIHANNA WAS IN THE MOMENT, EXCITED, AND JUST TRYING TO GET UP ON STAGE WITH HER BOSS/BIG BROTHER. DAMN. SHE IS A 19 YEAR OLD GIRL THAT DATES CHRIS BROWN. I MEAN JAY IS 38…HE HAS BEYONCE, HE IS NOT A PEDIFILE. HER DAD IS PROBABLY 38. BUT IT WAS CUTE ..I AM SURE SHE MEANT NO DISRESPECT. BEYONCE AINT HARDLY SWEATING HER. IF ANYONE DID NOT NOTICE….BEYONCE IS BEAUTIFUL AND LACKNG IN NO DEPARTMENT. SOLANGE DID GIVE HER THE EVIL EYE…I THOUGHT THAT WAS FUNNY. BUT TRUST ME…IT WAS INNOCENT. I LIKE RIHANNA EVEN MORE NOW THAT I SEE SHE IS JUST A GIGGLY, YOUNG 19 YEAR OLD WHO HAPPENS TO BE GORGEOUS AND TALENTED! cONGRADS TO RIHANNA FOR HER 1ST GRAMMY AND TO BEE FOR THE GREAT PERFORMANCE…AS USUAL!

Nova, You opened up my eyes…I am not going to lie at first I was like…on snap!!!!

D Drama, drama, drama, but it was just her nerves getting to her.
But RhiRhi is mad young and just seemed mad nervous. But one thing I cant deny, Solange was giving her the booboo face!!!LMAO!!!

I agree with soem of my fellow posters, If ya’ll would have seen how solange side eyed Beyonce then Rhiana when she ran up their like a chicken and tried to grab Jay, it was hilarious. People can not tell me that Bey and Ri ri dont have beef! Solange clearly made it evident, she made it clear what Beyonce’s fake smile didn’t which was “Hoe step away from my man!” Ha! I almost fell off my bed laughing

Alicia looked like a green laffy taffy,MY GOODNESS! Rihanna too beautiful and,i saw her black girl attitude come out on stage with Jay z…she got bossy on big homie like she given him the p***y lol lol

LOL @ being nervous.The child knows how to speak she been doing it for a couple years now.But she be ok.

It was very awkward w/ Ri Ri, and mostly because of Jay-Z and his big lips. You can tell he either did something that he wasn’t suppose to do w/ Ri Ri in the past or he has feelings for her because he was acting very suspect.

I noticed a lot of sideways glances from Beyonce and Solange. I dont know why Bee is tripping, she knows damn well that Jay is her man and he ain’t going nowhere. She is the best he will ever get!

When men cheat or want to cheat they are always unable to hide it. I mean why wouldn’t he go up there for the award, he was the person she collaborated w/ for the song.

I missed the Grammy’s this year But it looks like Bey and Tina’s performance was Fierce! I love Bey with the lighter hair.

Usher and Tameka actually look cute together. They look happy and in love, so I wish them all the best!

And Kanye….Kanye Kanye Kanye. God bless you and your mother, but IMO you are a spoiled little brat in more ways then one. I understand that you wanted to give tribute to your mother, but didn’t you do that with your performance???? Why would you expect the Grammy producers to give YOU extra time for your acceptance speech???

It would have been in better “taste” if you would have skipped thanking everyone else and spent the entire time allotted (which obviously isn’t much) to talk about you mother instead of *once again* expecting people to do things the way YOU want them to be done. Those people are not on your payroll so they don’t cater to you, so you shouldn’t expect special treatment.

the Rhi/Jay incident is not even worth commenting on and Kanye’s perforormance, by far, was my fav of the evening.

When hancock won Album of the year he should have said, “Kanye now you know never to release an album the same year as i do” LOL

People would have laughed because Kanye said that to common

Why was Solonge there? she seemed out of place.

I think ppl are being a little hard on Kanye. In his defense, if you go back and watch it, he had only been speaking about 30 seconds before they started the music. Other winners got much longer (1.5-2 minutes) to accept their awards. I guess the producers figured they should be glad they are even showing a rap category on the broadcast, even if we only give ya’ll 30 seconds. lol
And, as far as the comment about Common, I thought it was well known that Kanye and Common are cool (Common is on Kanye’s label), so the comment was made in jest, I’m sure Common didn’t take offense to it. They were up for the same award so it was more like “friendly competition.”
I say give him a break, he’s still grieving and healing and he actually seemed a little nervous during his speech. He seemed a little subdued and not nearly as arrogant, so I think the whole thing has humbled him.

the awkward moment between rihanna and jay-z never happened. i don’t know what comcreetloop is talking about.

I didn’t think anything was awkward. Rihanna acts like Jay-z is her big brother no big deal. Making something out of nothing.

Kanye West has a big head I know that he lost his mother and all, but seriously he is abnoxious. I am getting tired of his attitude.

PEOPLE LOVE TO MAKE SHIT MORE THAN WHAT IT REALLY IS. SHE GRABBED HIM LIKE THE HAPPY 19 YEAR OLD SHE IS. SE WAS HAPPY SHE WON I WOULD GRABBED HIM TO IF I WON A GRAMMY AN HE WAS ON IT.

YALL HAVE TOTALLY READ TOO DEEPLY INTO THAT WHOLE THING…..HOW CHILDISH. THAT’S ONLINE BLOGS FOR YA.

LOL AT RIHANNA!!!!!!!!!

I knew that RiRi and J thing was going to make people start talking!

I loved it when Kanye silenced the Grammys music…he deserves every award he got

I outta whoop Nas and Kelis a*s for their outfits! Cant Nas get some attention another way? Thats a damn shame….

That Rihanna and Jay-z moment was one of the best moments of the night and it caught me totally off guard. Solange’s reaction was SO CRAZY (If looks could kill…) but Bee maintained her cool a little. Rihanna was just excited, it was her first Grammy, shes supposed to be! I thought the whole thing was funny and a little awkward but im sure it was all harmless lol

Who ever said Rhianna was talentless is a retard!!!!! She has a very unusal voice that really stands out. She doesn’t sound like anyone else and I think that’s why so many people like her. Unlike so many others, she sounds just like her records when she performs live. Why can’t black people stick together instead of always trying to tear one another down?

LOL.. that’s going on my blog too! That was the best part of the night. Riyonce tried to walk hand in hand to the podium & he snatched his $h1t away & pointed to the stairs :-). He also pushed her back from the hug… I mean, she was trying to linger LMAO @ this b1tch not knowing her position..

jump on jump off

Now he gotta spend millions to placate Beyonce LOL

My 2nd fave part of the evening was Riyonce singing please stop the music & she forgot the words… but the track didn’t LOL.. BUSTED! That’s on my blog as well

Tina & Bey rocked it! Kanye rocked it!!! Alicia should have rehearsed that opening more. Usher & Tameka looked nice together.. I NEVER EVER THOUGHT I WOULD FORM THOSE WORDS INTO A SENTENCE, but they did. Ashanti looked cute.

And that lil boy trynna clown Kanye when he won an award was uncalled for! Sayin’ I bet you can’t say you rec’d an award from a Beattle? B1tch I betchu can’t say you won FOUR GRAMMY’S IN ONE NIGHT!

LOVE ME SOME NAS & KELIS!!!!! & I KNOW KELIS NOT FEELIN HOW RIYONCE ROCKIN’ HER HAIRSTYLE(S) THATS PLURAL, FOR THE PAST FEW DAYS.

As soon as the moment happened yesterday btw JAy and Rihanna i started laughong because i knew something was going to be written about that the next day and you prove me right. loll i don’t think there was anything like that going on . all i saw was that jay did not want to come on stage and than rihanna grab his hand and said come on. and jayz pull the same thing 2 years ago when he won with linkin park he di not want to come on stage and when he did he just let the guys from linkin park speak and did not say a word. i am not saying there is nothin between them but i think we might be reading to much into this. personnally i did not anything to it just simply he did not want to come on stage.

Damn some of you sound the same!Under different aliases, mmmm hmmmm

WHY ARE YALL SO DAMN MESSY…………EVERYONE KNOWS THATS JAY-Z ISNT THE “GO ON STAGE AND MAKE A SPEECH” TYPE OF DUDE THATS Y HE DIDNT WANT TO GO IN STAGE…….BLACK FOLKS ARE TOO DAMN MESSY!

No. You must have gotten a moment lost in translation or something. She held his hand until they were starting up the steps and he let it go and gestured ahead. And, she went up the stairs ahead of him. I didn’t see any of jerking away and Rihanna asking “why?” Where did that come from?

Everyone has lost their natural minds clearly

Hollywood is out of control call the g building

and I love love love kelis

Kanye did his thing last night the ONLY performance worth staying up for

A more scandalous moment last night was when Beyonce literally stepped on Tina. She almost knocked her over. How did yall miss that, CL?

I just think Rhianna was happy and wanted to share the moment wuth him, But I did catch Solange’s side eye and it wasnt the time or place. But i dont really think it was more than that, if he pulled away it probally was because she was kinda dragging him up the steps and she practically rammed him when she hugged him. After her acceptance speech, as she turned around she hit him like on his arm and he smiled. If they are messing around or have messed around…then so be it ya know? What can we do? I can see why he’d be atrracted..she’s georgeous and i can see why she’d be atrracted, he a man with alot of clout and power and Jay does have that swagger. Just my opinion.

i didnt see an awkward moment either.
making an issue out of nothinggggggggggggggggggggggggg

he did let her hand go,but it wasnt anything serious
on stage every thing was cool between them/

they actually hugged walkin off stage ….

this is just how a rumour start

whoa!!!! pssshhhh

I THINK IT WAS CUTE, SHE IS PLAYFUL AND YOUNG.
I LIKE HOW RIHANNA SHOWS HERSELF AND NOT TRIES TO BE TO PERFECT, SHE SEEMS COOL TO HANG WITH UNLIKE YOU KNOW WHO.
SOLANGE LOOKED LIKE SHE WAS REACHING TO SHAKE RIHANNA’S HAND BUT RIHANNA TURNED AND GRABBED JAY……THAT WAS THE MOST AKWARD THING. I WISH B WOULD DO THAT WITH JAY ONE DAY, JUST SHOW SO REALNESS.
PEOPLE DONT BELIEVE BEYONCE DOESN’T GET JEALOUS BECAUSE SHE IS BEYONCE, THE GIRL IS HUMAN TOO. IM PRETTY SURE SHE SEE’S BEAUTIFUL WOMEN IN THE INDUSTRY ALL THE TIME AND AROUND HER MILLION DOLLAR MAN AND SHE FEELS A LITTLE INSECURE.

Yeah I saw it live. It kind of looked like this to me:

Rihanna: OMG! Jay we won come on up here with me! (she grabs his hand)
Jay: Woah woah woah slow your roll. And he lets go and she realizes I went a little to far there.

It was quite hillarious to me!

Wow another instance of a blog making a mountain out of a mole hill. I saw the show and there was nothing there, but I guess this will get your hits up, huh? Craziness

was Kanye’s fiance Alexis there? haven’t seen them together in a minute

I couldn’t help but laugh when Kanye told them “it would be in good taste to stop the music now” cause the hurry up and did it.

He had a point I would of said it to.

EXACTLY WHAT NUMBER 6 SAID. See people reading into it too hard!

bahahahahahaha,i dont know where to start

first off I LOVE U KANYE……his biggest fan by far,thats what i am,and the song to his mother was very heart felt,i kno lil mama was somewhere in there sad as hell.I kno one thing tho,fergie messed up the moment big time

i think that bee and tina were pretty good……

lol at jay-z not tryna hold riri’s hand….there is obviously an issue….come on man wat was up with that

i love nas and kelis…….at least there was something interesting to talk about after the grammys becuz it fa damn sure was boring…..except for bee,kanye….n dats it for me

I see we have some very insecure ( and probably manless) women around here. So what, RiRi wanted to hold her mentors hand as they went on stage? If Beyonce is a real woman she won’t be bothered by such nonsense.

Yall chicken heads in here need to stop….Riri was excited that was it. All you people do is create drama in your heads. She looked great and Beyonce was not made at it at all. She knows and understands the relationship that they have and knows that Jay was only looking out for her when she first got in the business. Stop hating you thrift shop chicken head Hoes.

Wow, Kanye needs a lot of help with his clothes… No disrespect to his mom, but aside from that which I certainly sympathize, why does Kanye insist on making everything about him? Has he not learned anything from his tragic loss?
Rihanna looked great and congrats on the grammy…
Why did J-Z come on stage talking…. He was rather full of himself? I got the impression that he has definitely hit that before…. What do you think? Their body language was spoke volumes…

i thought that was kinda cute the whole Jay Z and Rhianna translating thing…FUNNY a smile ater that boring show…

oh well next time she wont forget to play teh part lmao
hey look beyoncé doesnt even acknoledge her relationship with jay z like that !
look at usher and tameka? mary and her man/ nas and kelis? do you think anyone in their right minds will try to put these men away from
their women or vice versa? but beyoncé never hold jay z tight and she always lie about them like she ashame of him
jay z and rihanna have chemistry tho no doubt and i just love the way she didnt even acknoledge beyoncé
like bitch “we’ll never be appart maybe in magazine but he’ll still is my man”
“because in the dark he dont give a damn about he shiny ho ”
“that’s why he need me there with him i ‘ll always share”
and just for everyone info lmao beyoncé cant do shit to rihanna because that skinny lil girl will beat her and her hack retardted looking sista
and if she cant trust me she has back up the last thing you want is mess with an island chick
we dont do screaming neck rolling and finger poiting we carry razors under our tongues to cut a ho!!!

solonge face told the story. her expression was priceless! she was more shocked than beyonce. i guess riri was so excited that just wasnt thinking straight. she didnt give beyonce time to give j. congrates. before she pulled him up on stage. but i will say that i couldnt believe that she gave him that hand. it just show her immaturity. you cant give jigga-man the hand!!! what!! she dun lost her mind!!!

Jay Z needs to stop acting shy and support his artists. She was excited and wanted to share nothing more nothing less. Beyonce knows he is going home with her. I am ssick of all that hair with her already.

Rihanna was just excited and wasn’t really thinking about what Jay-Z and Bee were thinking…Jay, Bee and tag along Solonge were thinking about it too deep cause if you saw Solonge’s eyes I swear daggers were shooting out. Jay-Z is grown and he should know that Rihanna is just a teenager excited to win her first Grammy that he was apart of as well…Bee had got that boy whipped!

What was Solonge doing up there with Chris Brown (in a tacky suit by the way) presenting an award?? That girl hasn’t had a hit ever, in movies or in music…that was a mistake

I laughed my ass off when Kanye mouthed off about shutting off the music. Leave it to Kanye to be frank about it but hell his mom died and he was trying to talk, let the man talk, I wonder if Kanye is pissed about Herbie Hancock winning Album Of The Year? Hmm…

Alicia Keys OWNED it last night, I mean the girl performed twice, opened the show and even won a damn award right after she opened the show…mad props!!

Nas is so ignorant, I could care less that he is “trying to make a statement”…he’s getting shock value to get sales in such an ignorant way…be an artist and come up with something more intelligent

Hihanna seemed very scared when Solange looked at her, like get off of my brother-inlaw bitch.

The grammy’s need to stop playing music when people are saying their acceptance speeches. Don’t they know that is rude.

I don’t think that the Jay and Rhi situation was ackward at all. I don’t think he was going to go up with her and take her shine at first and she playfully pulled him along…I thought it was cute…he reminded me of Rev Run on the stage translating for one of his daughters….

PDat people will do anything for gossip story, JAYZ DIDN’T WANT PROPS FOR RIHANNA award, that’s why he took his hand of her. He thinks she deserve all the hard work for herself…stop it!

and NAS is a Genius…seriously his a real smart man! big ups

i’m cosigning with #44

i was at the show. they were playing around. jay was trying to school rihanna on some media ediquette (i.e. how to properly accept an award). she was pushing him away in a this-is-my-moment manner.

why we always gotta make something out of nothing?

I think people are reading too much into what happened between Jay-Z and Rihanna. I watched the show too and to me it seemed like Rihanna was trying to get Jay-Z to come on stage and share the spotlight for her award.

good lord nas and kelis are disgusting. what more can i say.

NOTHING is wrong with rihannas forehead. You are all haters she has an exotic beauty. If everyone looked the same the whole wolrd would be damn boring. A LOT of haterz on this site. I cant stand repititous comments.

i just caught the kanye vid of his speech and i’m starting to dislike him. they should’ve cut the music on him b/c his main thing should’ve been to talk about his mother but instead he wasted most if the allotted speech time, dissing other ppl/putting himself above others. the common comment was low. i’m sure he was just joking BUT some jokes should be between friends and you notice ppl didn’t really laugh. the amy comment was also off as well. i don’t think the producers were being disrespectful. personally if my mom died, the first and only thing on my mind would be to talk about her but he was too into himself to do that. plus they didn’t know that he was going to talk about her anyway so of course they tried to shut him up

@ELLE,

i think u are an intelligent human being. i saw the same thing too.

rihanna did not drag him from his seat, when his name and her name were called, they both stood up along wid others and, then she took him by the hand until they reached the steps, where he gestured for her to go up first (like ladies first gesture), then he let her have her say, etc. btw, it is the grammy, rihanna was extremely excited and nervous, she went and collected awards before but this is the GRAMMY AWARDS.

solange need to quit, tell her find her attention from papa knowles who is still to NOTICE her behind.

lmfao @ solange still damn watched it again. she gave ol gal that creo voodo look! haha jay remind me when my uncle cheated on my aunt can’t hide shyt. and be and solange was look @ eachother like wtf. haha solange done let da cat out da bag

@BORED,

U JUST MAD CAUSE A DRUG ADDICT UPSTAGED BEYONCE. beyonce has NOT win a general field yet, she does not have record of the year, song of the year, album of the year, nor best new artist awards. all of beyonce grammy come from r&b and rap collaboration. however, AMY WINEHOUSE upset beyonce’s career cause irreplaceable was beyonce biggest and most successful hit to date, but she got no grammy for it, wow, the voters have found a new darling.

I don’t think it was any kind of awkward moment Some of you are just being bitter haters. THEY, (as in Rihanna featuring Jay Z), won an award for best RAP/SUNG COLLABORATION (as in more than one person working together) so its only natural they should accept the award together no drama in that, you all need to relax. jealousy it does not look good.
And Concreteloop I must say I didn’t expect that from you either smh

I agree the rhi and Jay “moment” was not even a “moment” shame on you CL I expected that from other sites please dont breed that follishness here too!! Anyway she was just excited and Jay seems like he hates award shows who can blame him I mean the only thing I would want was the goodie basket ,,but this show was kinda boring I lthink the 2003 or 2004 I cant remember the year was much better

Don’t kill me. It really wasnt awkward at all. Cmon Concrte y’all are blowing this out of proportion. He was being shy, alowing Ri ri to go ahead & enjoy her moment. Clearly a brother - sister kind of appreciation.

Solange gave Ri-RI the side eye because she’s a jealous &itch!!! She wishes that she could be grabbing Jay-Z or anybody and going up to accept a Grammy. Instead she’s at home changing diapers and potty training her son. She and Ri-Ri are probably very close in age. If she hadn’t been so damn fast, maybe she also could’ve had a career but she doosn’t.

I saw the Rihanna and Jay Z “thing” and it really wasn’t a “thing” at all, although it’s obvious that Jay loves the shit outta Beyonce because he was really NOT trying to make it look like him and Rihanna were together in no shape or form. He did kinda pull back when Rihanna grabbed him, but I don’t know if it was because Beyonce was there or if it was because he didn’t want tongues to start wagging LIKE THEY ARE RIGHT NOW. Rihanna looked genuinely happy to have won a Grammy and of course Jay ain’t no rookie so he didn’t care one way or the other.

Don’t know why he was “translating” for her. I guess it was to try to cap it off like “yeah, we just up here having fun, but my girl is in the audience with her Orlando Jones lookin sister”

Ri-Ri is a georgeous and talented young artist. You know good and damn well she don’t want no old fart like Jay-Z. He was her mentor and she wanted to share her big moment with him. That’s all.

yeah #145, that must be the problem……….. *smh*.

Beyonce, ain’t nobody checking for Jay-Z like that. The most attractive thing about him is his $$$$$$$$$$$$. Ri-Ri is still trying to build her career as a young artist. I’m sure she has her pick of rich AND attractive men but right now she’s just focused on her career and maximizing her opportunities in the industry. You can relax, B.

kanye`s song about his mother was amazing.

thats all =]
