The Grammy 2011 Winners...


If you missed the 53rd Grammy Awards lastnight, here's what you missed.  The big winners of the night were country trio Lady Antebellum for "I Need You Now" with five Grammy wins.  Lady Gaga and Jay-Z came in second with three Grammy wins.  And the biggest upset of the night according to Twitter...Justin Bieber was shut out!  Bieber was beat in his category for "Best New Artist" by an artist we never heard of, Esperanza Spalding, who is a 26-year-old bassist and jazz vocalist. Better watch out Spalding, Bieber fans are furious...lol. Check out Grammy Highlights below.

Lady Gaga Arrives in a Egg!



Christina Aguilera Takes a Fall...


Christina just can't get a break this month..first her flub up of the national anthem at the Super Bowl, now this..lol.

Katy Perry's Valentines Day Themed Performance:


Just when you concluded that Katy Perry's performance was just plain boring..her swing rises and her dress becomes a projector screen that unveils wedding footage of her prenuptial's last year.  After that she breaks out into dance with "Teenage Dream".  Nice!

Justin Bieber & Usher's Performance:


I'm still puzzled how Esperanza Spalding beat out the Beibs for 'Best New Artist'...awesome performance.  If you haven't noticed, Justin's voice is changing...
