Best and Worst of 2010 Grammy Awards: Beyonce's 'Boy,' Taylor Swift meets Stevie Nicks, Michael Jackson tribute

Was GaGa and Elton John's duet a homerun or a foul ball?

Best: Beyonce's "If I Were a Boy," "You Oughta Know"

Best: Beyonce's "If I Were a Boy," "You Oughta Know"

Forget Lil Wayne doing a rock record: we'd rather see Beyonce rock if this is any indication of what she can do.

Her voice was tip-top on "If I Were a Boy" -- which, melodically, shares a lot in common with Joan Osbourne's "One of Us -- and her take on Alanis Morissette's "You Outta Know" was scathing and rich. Our inner, angsty teenager had a field day, went to the mall, painted our nails with White-Out and wrote in our diary.

    The Grammy's snubbed the great Lady Gaga. Rightfully awarded Beyonce, but wrongfully awarded Taylor Swift once again for always singing off key live. Give us all a break. Hopefully Swift will be history by the next Grammy's. We are all sick of her.

    haha, Quentin was dorky. thanks for pointing that out. I'm so happy for Beyonce. I think she should have done a medley of all of her recent hits, but she sounds good no matter what.

    Quentin Tarantino looks like A) he's gotten a bit fat, and B) Elvis Presley in that picture.

    How does M&M continue to get awarded for his rap abilities when he hasn't changed cadence since 1998. That's 12 years of Tic-Toc Tic-Toc in my book. Especially when you have The Roots and Mos Def getting snubbed.

    How could you not mention Pink? She had the best performance of the night.

    Taylor Swift winning Best anything is great news? She abuses Auto-Tune more than T-Pain and Kanye ever could. At least, we can tell they use it. Taylor skills as a vocalist are so bad, they have to abuse that program in order to make her sound decent. For shame on your bias.

    the grammies were a joke and p!nk had the punchline to the joke. she schooled all those wannabees & strutted off the stage knowing she had finally put the whole cookie-cutter-female-singer-of-the-new-milleium into perspective. the cream always rises to the top. you showed 'em p!nk. may you finally get the respect you so richly deserve.
