Women in Music at The Grammys

The Grammy Awards 50th show opened up with a clip from Frank Sinatra. Alicia Keys wearing a stunning emerald green dress sang a duet with Sinatra thanks to modern technology.

You can say that it was a night of duets.

Carrie Underwood seemed more confident during her live performance.

The first award was given out by one of my all time favorite artists Prince. I was jealous as he hugged and congratulated Alicia Keys for winning the Best Female R & B Vocal performance for No One.

The original members of The Time performed Jungle Love. Morris Day still looks good y'all. Rihanna came out rocking a cute short hair style during the performance singing Umbrella and my other favorite cut from her last CD Please Don't Stop the Music.

Cindy Lauper and Miley Cyrus gave out an award for Best New Artist. Amy Winehouse won but wasn't in the building. I had hoped that Ledisi would get it because I really liked her CD.

Fergie sang while John Legend played the piano before handing out an award.

Cher introduced Beyonce and Tina Turner for the showstopping performance. Tina started out with What's Love Got to Do With It and Beyonce joined her on stage for Proud Mary. All I can say Beyonce had to keep up with Ms. Tina, because Tina did her thing. This was one of my favorite performances of the night.

Song of the Year was Amy Winehouse's Rehab.

Aretha Franklin was made to sing gospel. BeBe Winans joined her on stage. I just love The Clark Sisters and they sang one of my favorite songs..."You brought the sunshine..."

Stevie Wonder introduced Alicia Keys as she performed for the second time that night singing her hit single No One.

I have to admit Amy Winehouse's performance was better than I thought it would be. Surprised she song Rehab, but anyway; she also won The Record of the Year award.

"An evocative look at the music industry from the inside. Double Platinum is a gripping portrayal of one woman's quest to climb back to the top of the charts while overcoming personal obstacles." ~ Vonnie Woods - HoneySoul.com
