variety show (grammy awards live blog)
The Grammys, for some reason, have seemed to go by far more quickly than any other awards show I've seen. Here it is, almost 11:00 p.m., and I'm wondering where exactly the night has gone.
I can't figure out why this is: Is it the combination of concert and awards show? Does the music make time slip by faster? I know it helps me get my housework done.
This year, CBS decided to capitalize on the success of the Fox Network's "American Idol" by incoporating a singing competition into the show: Viewers were asked to vote for three performers, and the winner would get to sing a duet with Justin Timberlake.
That's going on now, and in my opinion the whole segment was a complete waste of time. Nobody needed that, except maybe the girl who won, and did it need to take over ten whole minutes?
