Yall.. I didn’t watch the Grammys cuz I’d rather just read reactions to it on the internet, then pretend that I watched it/was there/I am connected to the modern world.

Question 12: Christian Bale won a grammy for

a) being Heath Ledger’s BFF

Can’t believe I missed the Grammys. Feel really ‘out of the loop.’ Just want to connect 2 ‘pop culture’ since it is kind of the fabric of society that relates us all.
Kinda feel like this picture represents the state of modern music.
In this picture is everything that we want.
We want bloggable content with stars who attract viewers by saying zany things and being progressive enough to blurb about.

Did yall hear M.I.A. is pregnant?
Are yall excited about how twitter gives u such direct and instant access 2 ur fave celebs while they are at a meaningful event like the Grammys?

c. Searching for our Sexuality thru the Blindness sounds like an idea for a dark conceptual-core bromo-erotic video, perhaps giving the ‘Jobros’ a chance to realize more honest personal brands. Its funny, I haven’t even heard these n00bs and here i am commenting on them.
the correct answer, however, is e.
Also, why are lil wee-z, B.I.G.M.I.A and H.O.V.A wearing sunglasses? Are they showing support for stevie wonderbro despite his jonasbromosexual collaboration? How many people are going to think im racist/sexual orientationist?

srsly isn’t it like SO irrelevant? obvs the voting system is flawed in a critical way [via old ppl]. SO TRUE that no one knew about pre-kanye daft punk, did you know they were nominated liek 5 times before!?

fully appreciate all of the relevant observation/commentary.
but srsly. – WTF with the hair d00d behind coldplay?
Also, I live in Canada where the Nickleback men were nominated for THE MOST “juno awards” which is the canadian wanna-be grammys. [s00 many ridiculous things about this] At least “real people” get noms for grams…..

got a lot to say carles! this post is good.
–is there a mashieuppy category?
–who is that crazy cool dad with the zany hair behind the coldplays? and yes they need to retire that gimmick.
probably wore those jackets so that you could blog about the french revolution jacket trend.
–m.i.a. wore it better because she accessorized better, a whole baby, c’mon that shit is expensive.
–why is lil wayne(not sure if it’s him or just some black dude of the street) touching maya’s belly with that nasty grin on his face? wtf yall, what is up with his grill, i don’t know who allowed that to be cool.
–def got all the grammys coverage i needed via diplo’s twitter. thanks! shoulda met him at coy restaurant.
–why was deadmau5 there????
–jen anniston’s friends look pretty skanky. has jennifer connelly eaten anything lately? i don’t like seeing two tree branches emerge from under a green dress, too confusing.
thanks carles. love you.

I’m not sure why, but Three Tweens and a Black man sounds like a fantastic name for a band.

welcome back Crlz!
good post.
Definitely nailed it with Kanye’s worst black person of the year in America.
I hear that now that Gerard Bushbro is no longer prez he’s gonna ‘get into making music’. Hear he wants to remix that kanyefggtbro. Really looking forward to his debut EP.
PS. are the coldplays trying to be the powerrangerfggtbros or the teletubbiefggtbros [via coloured military jackets]? s0 confused by their zany personal brand.
