The biggest upset of the night undeniably Jazz star Herbie Hancock taking home the coveted Album of The Year award – a category both Kanye and Amy were nominated in. I’m also kinda puzzled as to how Rihanna’s ‘Umbrella’ pick up more than it did. Nothing for Beyonce’s ‘Irreplacable’ either. I guess, a song being a monster hit doesn’t necessarily equate into a Grammy – and rightfully so.

The 50th Annual Grammy Awards took place tonight at Los Angeles’ Staples Center. Muisc’s biggest stars were out in full force for the industry’s most prestigous event. Check out performances from the show below, as well as That Grape Juice’s take on them afterward:(more…)
As reported, the legendary Clive Davis hosted his annual Pre-Grammy Award party last night in LA. Two of the night’s big performers included Fantasia and UK singing sensation Leona Lewis. Fantasia performed ‘I’m Here’, a song from her stint as Celie in the Broadway adaptation of ‘The Color Purple’ (she recently wrapped up her time on the show) and Leona belted out her record breaking single ‘Bleeding Love’. Check out their performances below:
Fantasia – ‘I’m Here’
Woah! She really took it to CHURCH on that one. She S-A-N-G! Could have done without some of the vocal rifting at the end, but who cares, it’s Fantasia. Good stuff.
Leona Lewis – ‘Bleeding Love’
Great performance. I felt proud of her; having watched her get her big break on the X-Factor and now performing (and nailing it) in front of her industry contemporaries, it really hit me that she is destined for big things – and deservedly so. She is an amazing talent.

‘The Voice’ Whitney Houston made an appearance at her mentor Clive Davis’ annual Pre-Grammy party last night, which took place at the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Los Angeles, California.

It is being reported that Mariah Carey is shooting the video for her new single ‘Touch My Body’ this weekend in an undisclosed location in Los Angeles. According to Mariah Daily, Brett Ratner – who also directed the clips for Mariah’s ‘It’s Like That’ and ‘We Belong Together’ – will serve as the vid’s director. ‘Touch My Body’ will be hitting radio outlets next Tuesday (February 12th), so we should be hearing it any time from now.With Brett Ratner at the helm of directing duties, I’m anticipating the vid being pretty good. Will the song, most importantly, be any good though? I guess time will tell.

Former Making The Band choreographer, Laurie-Ann Gibson, performed her debut single ‘Addictive’ on BET’s 106 & Park earlier this week. I feel kinda bad for the following because of what she says at the end, but that was a mess. Tell a lie, the ‘performance’ was borderline ok – I mean, we all know she can dance – but that song is the absolute pits. Garbage at it’s worst. Stick to the dancing, I say.

Another day, another Rihanna magazine cover. This time the Bajan beauty features on the cover of the March issue of Cosmopolitan magazine. Yes, she looks great, but it’s like: what is there left for her to actually say anymore? She’s pimped her album for all it will do (kudos to her and Def Jam), but it’s time to call it a day (for now).What do you think of the cover?
With the release of Janet Jackson’s much-hyped ‘comeback’ LP ‘Discipline’ just three weeks away, preparation for the album’s next single have been put into play. The video shoot for one of the two new singles, ‘Rock With U’, has been booked for next week and is set to be directed by UK director Saam Farahmand – who also shot the clip for Janet’s ‘Feedback’. I’m really hoping a video for her other single ‘LUV’ is shot soon as well. Right out the gate, ‘LUV’ is performing very well on urban radio and is the most hit-worthy track of the two IMO. {Source}
In other Janet news, an email sent out to fans and the press by her ‘people’ read:
“Janet is coming to Times Square February 26th and she plans on leaving a big impression! I can’t give away all of the details just yet but I can say the day will begin with a performance on Good Morning America… LIVE FROM THE NOKIA THEATRE!!!”
It seems Janet’s promo will kick into overdrive come release of the album, not to mention the buzz going around about a ‘surprise’ performance at the Grammy’s tomorrow night.
