No need for a grand introduction. Let’s run this back: Bruno Mars opened the show the way an awards show should be opened. I never get tired of seeing him groove. He also won his first BET Award! French Montana performed a song I’ve never heard, but that’s not saying much because I usually listen… Read More BET Awards 2017: Old School Owned the Night!
RiRi surprised the hell outta me and opened the show. YESSSSSS!!!! (Actually, she ended up doing four sets throughout the night. Very clever on MTV’s part. They made me watch the entire show.) Puffy decided to wear a blouse over his t-shirt. Drake won Best Hip Hop Video for “Hotline Bling.” Nicki Minaj and Ariana… Read More 2016 VMAs: That Rihanna Reign Just Won’t Let Up

Hell… Kendrick Lamar won the first award! And it looks like he shaved and got his hair freshly braided! The Weeknd… Read More GRAMMYs 2016
Me: I’m spent. The whole show didn’t do this to me, but the Andrae Crouch tribute took me to a special place – you know – the hiding place. (If you didn’t grow up in church, many of us call Jesus’ love our hiding place. Ask a friend.) Let’s run it back. Taraji P. Henson… Read More Celebration of Gospel 2016
So… I fell asleep on my couch at about 9:45 last night. Woke up at 11-sum’n with my shoulder damn near stuck in the awkward position it was in when I was laying on it. Needless to say I was annoyed.
