Did anyone manage to watch the Grammy Awards this morning/last night?

I was really impressed with them to be honest. The performances were all really good and the night was full of quality entertainment. I was especially impressed with Adele who managed to win all of the awards she was nominated for. I also loved her performance too, it was her first live performance since her throat surgery and it was amazing. I'll post a video to her performance below. There were also a couple of tribute acts, one to Etta James and one to Whitney Houston. I was really impressed with those too.

Click here (http://www.longislandpress.com/2012/02/13/adeles-grammy-performance-adele-wins-six-grammy-awards-video/) for the Adele performance.

So, if you managed to watch it or see some of the highlights what did you think? which performance did you like the best?

Post videos if you wish! :)

Like I posted elsewhere I wasn't that impressed by her performance I thought it would have been better with all the hype surrounding it and the fact that the full night they were going on about it :P It wasn't bad, I still enjoyed it but I was expecting a bit more!

The rest of the awards were good and I really liked Katy Perrys performance, I fell asleep before I saw Nickis performance but I watched a video of it and I got bored of it :(

Adele's "Rolling in the deep" performance was amazing and Jennifer Hudson's rendition of Whitney Houston's "I will always love you" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8FNtiC1PdDo) was one hell of a tribute.

edit: just watched Nicki Minaj's performance..so crazy!! It looks like an exorcism of some sort. The exorcism of Roman?

Nicki Minaj was the best part of the awards. 'Roman Holiday' is a fantastic track. I can't wait for it to come out on iTunes.

Loved Adele, she made me proud to be british! Also LOVED Jessie J's dress, and Minaj just blew me away. Her new album is going to be amazing.

I thought that Adele would have been singing a different track from the album. I still enjoyed it though because she's amazing. ;)

I loved Jennifer's performance, her voice is amazing and she was defintatley the right person to preform the song!

Really enjoyed the show actually, the performances were very good on the whole and I thought it was really entertaining throughout. Katy was great, and I really enjoyed the Beach Boys/Maroon 5/Foster The People performance and Nicki's exorcism or whatever it was she was doing was definitely exciting.

The awards themselves went how I expected to be honest, I was hoping Katy would win but I knew inside that Adele would slay. :P

Loads of stuff about Adele has been on my Tumblr dash, like this one;

She's lost a lot of weight. I wish people would stop making fat jokes about her and judge her by her abilities not her appearance. ;/ She's an extraordinary artist, love her!

You're always going to find someone who's more interested in an artists appearance then vocal ability.

It's a shame because Adele is actually a nice person and has got somewhere in life, and they're going to be judgemental ***** all their lifes.

The funny thing is that people usually complain about how sexualised female singers and their videos have gotten and then they moan and label Adele as fat and call her lazy because she's not size 0 and dancing about in a bikini in her music videos.

What a beautiful night last night was, Adele deserved every award she won and perhaps an extra one for being such a kind and lovely woman.

Does that scream out jealous to anyone or just me lool. I've always liked a little bit of Adele, and listen to her when she was a little younger, well done to her that is a massive amount to win. I didn't catch any of them so I might look at some performances on youtube sometime.

I loved Katy's performance. I went bed after that. I loved Coldplay and Rihanna! Flawless. Adele was obviously amazing.
