* CHRISTINA AGUILERA PERFORMED “BEAUTIFUL” WEARING A TAILORED MANSUIT. Which is slightly less compelling than Yoko Ono’s acceptance speech. All I could think of was her art: the cover for “Season of Glass,” with John Lennon’s glasses and a glass of water, half-empty/half-full; the installation with bird sounds, a pine coffin, and a tree growing from where his head would have been. The woman is a seer.
* QUEEN LATIFAH HAS DONE A LOT MORE THAN JUST BE IN “BARBERSHOP 2,” announcer!!
* Why the Grammys are kind of great: did you ever in your life believe you’d hear Missy Elliott say, “Y’all give it up for Sarah MC LACHLAAAANN!”
