The Grammy Awards 2008

Amy Winehouse‘s performance via satellite, from London at the Grammy Awards, the 50th anniversary edition. Amy sang You Know I’m No Good and Rehab.
She won 5 out of 6 nominees including best new (cracked) artist award. And I said no, no no!
Kanye West was the loser of the night when he won just 2 out of 8 nominees. At least he got the award for the best rap album. I’m not sure what happened to him last night but he said countless times “I”, “me”, “best”. Anyway, his performance was one of a kind and his hairstyle (he had written Mama on his head) was … unique!
