It's almost here, it's almost here!! The Super Bowl of the music world, the Grammy Awards, are this Sunday night and to say we're excited is a complete understatement.
This awards show, like most, is less about handing out awards and more about the industry showing off... which we are F I N E with. But seriously, in the span of a few hours, there will be 20 (possibly 21) performances and they'll probably hand out seven awards.
What we're excited to see:
1.
Beyonce and Jay Z
Like, freaking duhhh. It will be Queen B's first performance since she surprised the entire world with a really, really, really great album and these two together? It's going to be amazinggg. And it will be a nice preview/reminder for allllllll of the Grammys she's going to rack up at next year's show.
Bonus: remember last year when that random dude thanked Jay Z and this magical moment happened?
2.
Lorde
This 17-year-old genius took the world by storm this year. Royals is just one of those songs that will never get old. She's nominated for a few awards and is performing too... and this is the first time she's even been invited to the Grammys. Talk about a boss. Also, she has fun dance moves when she performs so that will be fun to watch!
3.
Merle Haggard, Kris Kristofferson, Willie Nelson and
Blake Shelton
We have no idea what they're singing or why but we know that you don't get to see this kind of performance every day. It will some good ole' fashioned pickin' and singin' and, honestly, the world could use a lit more of that. Also... the rehearsals had to have been hilarious. Someone send us the bloopers. Like, for real.
What we're not so excited to see:
1.
Highway Robbery
We love Macklemore & Ryan Lewis. For real. It's really hard not to. They make really catchy songs that are fun to dance around to. However... we have a feeling they are going to rack up the awards and while some of them are absolutely deserved (Best New Artist), some of them will be absolute robbery- like taking Best Rap Performance over Drake, Eminem, Jay Z and Kendrick Lamar for
Thrift Shop; not even Can't Hold Us, White Walls or Same Love but
THRIFT SHOP. We hope we're wrong but probably not...
2.
Our Favorite Person, Ever
Not only is Swifty performing, hashtag eyeroll, but she's nominated for Album of the Year and
Country Album of the Year. Like, HOW HAVE WE NOT MOVED PAST THIS?!
And let's not forget last year's performance when she felt the need to make a dig at her teenager-ex-boyfriend who was in Ghana doing charity work...
We were talking over a drinking game where every time a camera showed Swifty awkwardly white girl dancing you had to drink but quickly decided that would lead to alcohol poisoning so... we scrapped it.
Be sure to check back here Monday for a Red Carpet recap and follow along during the ceremony on Twitter- @
RulesForBelles will be live-tweeting up a storm.
Enjoy!
