You know we're nearing complete rock bottom when they give a crackhead five Grammys. Sure, she can sing, and her band isn't half bad, but way to set a good example.

And no comment on the rock/hard rock/alternative awards. Ever since the 'Jethro Tull incident' and 'The Great Clapton Robbery' I've never expected either of these awards to go to the rightful winner.

Wonderfull, give the druggie 5 awards. angry.gif

They should have said we were gong to [...] but because you should be in prison for doing drugs, but because your a f****ing celeb we can't do shit about it. You aren't winning anything.

I can have dreams can't i?

Grammy's are a joke imo --> hardly any of them deserved it "Hard Rock - Foo Fighters" Haha sad.gif

I believe if you want to do drugs then that's your decision and it's no one else's business, but to award such a prominent person (who couldn't even be there in person for 'some reason') like they did just makes the Grammys more of a joke than they already are.

Seriously doubt she'll be winning any more in future.

Yeah, I think it was in season 2 that she won.

Grammy awards, Oscard awards. All crap imo. I haven't watched these award shows in quite a while. The last time I actually bothered was when Lord Of The Rings kicked ass at the Oscars.

Seriously, are so many award shows really necessary? At the end of the day, it seems as they are more about boosting album sales, then giving token for the work done.

Wow... the only reason the Foo Fighters won awards this year is probably because there is no U2 album! and the new album isn't great, they won this award because the Grammy 'academy' eventually figured out that the Foo Fighters are awesome sad.gif
