1. I commend Snoop and Anthony Hamilton for staying with their women. Kudos Kudos.
2. Ms. Sparks needs to eat some salads and that dress is too long! But hey I’m almost her size. LOL. She is still cute but girl don’t get any bigger. You are too young.;
3. Now Jennifer you KNOW those shoes are too tight but you still holding your composure. Get it girl! Your skin looks flawless.
4. MIA soooo out of place. No ma’am to the outfit! LOL. I’m going to assume you are still pregnant and that’s why you are dressed this way. In that case great choice! Better safe than sorry. Those shoes look comfortable.
5. Get it Tasia. That’s my girl! Lookin’ so like non-celebriteish. You look stunning girl.
6. Nat Cole don’t know who you are but I’m going to assume you are about 70. rock on mama. I don’t think I can look like or dress like you if I get to your age.
7. Robin and his wife look beautiful together’
8. Letoya looks lovely and nice legs. Dress is a little short but appropriate
9. Beyonce’s little sister looks pretty but I don’t think that dress is appropriate for the occasion. The material is a little off.
10. Karina looks stunning.
11. Leona Lewis looks alright she needs to hit the gym pronto! LOL. She has potential. Nice music from her…She is not trying hard enough.
12. Chrisete Michele looks fat and fab. Pretty face.
13. Janelle Monae. I’m sorry can somebody tell me what she does besides model old English men get ups? Pretty face though.
14. WOW Jamie Foxx’s daughter has grown up! She is so pretty. Her dress looks cheap though.
15. Estelle ugh! Ugh to the face and those greasy knocked kneed legs need to be covered at all times. On a side note eventhough I am just as not easy on the eyes as you I am happy that you have come so far. We need more people like you to change the minds of what beauty is supposed to look like. Muah!
16. Tiny looks tacky and old. When y’all getting’ married. Ha! You da fool. But hey keep poppin’ those babies out your figure still looks nice. You’re damaged goods n-e way!!!I’m so mean. I would never say this to your face. You are pretty.
17. Why eric benet’s daughter have bigger tat tats than his girlfriend? I guess…
18. Jay-Z lookin’like he part of the secret service.
19. Keyshia cole No ma’am that is dress is not cute. But hey neither or your tattoos. You are a beautiful woman though.

Janelle Monáe is my girl! Loving the whole outfit from the hair to the riding boots oh yes! I’m feeling it girl! Very aristocratic look…uniqueness at its highest! Gotta love that woman, not only is she talented but she’s also fa-shion-able!
Tiny, I personally think that you were meant to be and remain a Hood rat and no amount of money or diamond will ever change that. Even Fantasia showed up looking classy at the event!
I’m not feeling J-Hud’s outfit at all! She could have done much more better and her fiance always reminds me of the Chester Cat in Alice in wonderland with that supa dupa large smile of his.
AUTOTUNE-pain….just vanish for God’s sake! My head hurts!
Estelle knows that she is wrong for wearing this mess!
Solange…try again! Wrong place….you’re at the Grammy Award not at some dancehall party!
Keyshia Cole you’ll never get the chance to look classy unless you hide that mess that you call a tattoo.
Anthony Hamilton and Wife make a beautiful pair…chocolate high
Best Dressed people of the night: Janelle Monáe, Leona Davis, Natalie Cole, Letoya Luckett and Fantasia (it pains me to admit it….because i’m mad at thse jail tattoos covering her body)
Mia is excused since she is nine months pregnant I understand that she just wanted to feel comfy.
CONCLUSION: RIHANNA WOULD HAVE KILLED THE GAME AND BROUGTH THE GLAMOUR TO THE EVENT

I laughed at M.I.A’s ass during the whole performance. From her ladybug get-up, her bouncing around on stage with that belly, no less. I have no gripe with Grammy’s this year except that Katy Perry bs and Jonas Brother’s messing up Stevie Wonder’s song. Each of them deserve a Jody/Sweet Pea from “Baby Boy” ass wipping.
Line em up!!!
Peace

Eric Bennet’s crew looks really nice. His daughter has turned out to be lovely! And his girlfriend looks a little Halle-esque in the face….
And I like M.I.A.’s pregnancy dress

That’s so weird… aint nobody BIG really show up. I was expecting to see Beyawnce, Rihalien, even Ciara’s wack a**. Did Britney and Christina Aguilera even show up? I didn’t even know the Grammy Awards were on last night. I’m glad I didn’t stay up to watch it because it looked pretty lame. Just about everyone up above look a hot ghetto mess.
Tiny does look better than she usually does. Her hair looks nice, and the dress fits her shape well. Her shoes are cute too.
Solange looks cute, but this is the damn GRAMMYS! Not some summer time event. That looks like a dress that should be worn to someone’s album release party in June of 09.
Keyshia looks a mess! OMG wtf does she have on? That dress looks very cheap.
Leona Lewis has a nice shape, but the dress reminds me of something Mariah Carey wore in the 90’s.
LeToya aint even nobody to be going to the GRAMMYS and her face looks tore up! All of that botox and plastic surgery really messed up her face. Again, what is up with the summer dresses????

Haha, I’m not too crazy about what M.I.A. has on but I have to admit she’s the only one who can pull that off.
T.I, you can’t bring your wife or “baby mama” to the limelight looking like a ghetto, colorful disco ball.

I thought everyone looked INTERESTING to say the least. MIA could have looked nicer… not the motherly glow she should have been rocking that nite.
Yes! Solange has finally lost the feathers for a better look. Now if only her and Beyonce could get that lady like thing going. They need charm school…
And Keyshia is stepping the game all the way up. She looks fab. But i agree…. the dress doesn’t do for me either!

Jamie Foxx and Eric Benet have beautiful daughters, good they are dressed age appropriate.
Nas, Eric Benet, Solange, T.I. and Mary Mary (with the black hair) look nice.
Tiny, Fantasia, and Keyshia Cole will always look “unclassy” regardless of how good they look or dress.
Also, Fantasia and JHud have lost weight. And JHud don’t rush into marriage, give it some time.

Tiny got a nice frame.

She just look like the joker in the face.
Estelle = YUCK.
Fantasia looking good. Thats my boo. I love sexy hood chicks.!!!!!
Solange looking better and better with age.
She put on a few more pounds and she will be tight right.
Jordin Sparks will get the business.
LaToya would get split in half.
Natalie Cole looking good for a old heroin head. Love you baby
J-Hud looking beautiful. And her voice is the best in the game right now.

Solange looks like a hooker that dress is the worst of them all. I’m sick of the overexposed Beyonce I think in her world she thinks she the most beautiful woman in the world. M.I.A. held it down to be 9 months peggo’s she has her own style, What’s up with T-pain and the top hats. P. Diddy looks like a punk ass.

solange looks gorgeous, but the dress is a little short. This is the best I’ve ever seen Tiny look, but there is something off about her mouth/ lip area. T.I. can do much better. I am proud of Fantasia, she actually looks classy. I love Keyshia Cole, but no amount of money can make her classy. The tats are horrible and she is too rough and she stands like a dude. Forever ghetto fab. Sorry Keyshia.

TO ANGIE SHUT THE HELL UP ABOUT BEYONCE BECAUSE SHE WASN’T EVEN THERE HOW YOU GONNA HATE ON SOMEONE WHO’S NOT EVEN IN THIS PHOTO OP AND YOU ARE THE ONE WHO THINKS SHE THINKS SHE’S THE MOST BEAUTIFUL SHE NEVER SAID IT HATER!

Keyshia Cole and LeToya Luckett had BEST DRESSED hands down!!!

LeToya’s overall look just screams the title of her new album “Lady Love”

LeToya lookin’ right despite she looks like a stick figure. She got a big a$$ thick head of hair, it’s almost like she didn’t even get a hair cut. Jennifer looks nice, she’s lost a lot of weight too. LeToya & Jennifer looks the best. Runner Up: T.I. and Tiny
I can’t wait for LeToya’s “Lady Love”!!!!!!
