The 53rd Annual Grammy Awards: Winners


Last night, the 53rd Annual Grammy Awards took place.  The night overall was not that bad, but during some moments of the show, I was bored.  During those moments I was flipping thought other channels.

The show was packed with performances from Lady Gaga, Rihanna, Eminem, Bruno MarsLady Antebellum and many more.

Lady Antebellum won the most grammys of the night, taking home 5.  The other big winners of the night were: Jay-Z, John Legend, Lady Gaga, Eminem and Arcade Fire who took home Album of the Year.  Speaking of Album of the Year, I don't think Arcade Fire should've took that award.  They probably did have a good album, but it should have went to Lady Gaga or Katy Perry.  So I really don't know what went wrong with that.
