Tomorrow night with lift the lid on all the secret’s the 59th annual Grammy Awards has to offer its viewers.

‘Stand’ singer Donnie McClurkin is standing in the need of prayer himself after Twitter got wind of his suggestion for Christians to stop protesting Donald Trump.

Much like fellow gospel singers Vicki Yohe and Tina Campbell (of Mary Mary) before him, McClurkin called for a “cease fire,” so to speak, among Christians who have expressed disasppointment in the current administration.  Taking to Erica Campbell’s syndicated radio show, the Grammy winning vocalist stated:

“We need to know what our vote really means and how to utilize it. But I don’t want us to get caught up in this protest. The protests do nothing but rile [people] up. It causes people’s anger to rise up and it gives us a false sense of involvement.

…the true sense of involvement is at the voting booth.”

Now, Mother Monster is inviting the masses behind the scenes of the epic showing to share how it was pieced together.

As earlier reported, the 30-year-old began rehearsals shortly after the announcement was made last Fall.

Preparation took place at a variety of places, including a soundstage in Burbank, California, a tent in Gaga’s backyard, and eventually at the NRG Stadium in Houston.

Clearly, it paid off in more ways than one. Beyond the critical praise, the singer delivered dynamite ratings, received a huge sales spike, and launched a tour.
