Grammy Awards live blog

From the red carpet to the stage, Boston.com and Boston Globe staff keep you updated on all things Grammy-related.

I tuned in late, saw all of the tributes to artists past, but didn't see Ella Fitzgerald. Did they pay tribute to her at all?

RT @jambajim: Remember all that stuff Dave Grohl said about the beauty of analog recording? Um, yeah, he changed his mind. #Grammys...

RT @sepinwall: Grohl could totally play drums for Jeffster! RT @bpmoritz: Foo Fighters are playing in the Intersect room

I confess: those Deadmau5 heads kind of frighten me. This whole segment with him, David Guetta, Foo Fighters (again), Skrillex and, Chris Brown (again) is a colorful but confusing mash-up that seems like it would require mood-altering enhancement to fully understand.

Oh, so now Nicki Minaj's clergy-inspired cape sort of makes sense ... sort of. #GRAMMYS

Aaaand she's losing us ...

by mawuseziegbe via twitter 2/13/2012 4:06:07 AM
ChrisF that would be Etta James

by Denise 2/13/2012 4:06:10 AM
Adele, Glen Campbell, Beach Boys, Tony Bennett, Paul Mccartney, Stevie Wonder and tributes to Whitney - amazing and emotional.

This looks like an SNL digital short #NickiMinaj #Grammys

by mawuseziegbe via twitter 2/13/2012 4:06:34 AM
Is this still the show?? What is happening? Why are we doing this instead of watching people play music or accept awards? #Grammys #argh

by Sarah Rodman via twitter 2/13/2012 4:06:39 AM
This reminds me of Tyra's ANTM "motion editorial." #grammys

by Michael A. Brodeur via twitter 2/13/2012 4:07:12 AM
Wow. This chick's getting an earful tomorrow #NickiMinaj

54 years old - I don't get this part. Maybe an age thing?

What is this garbage?

by Notammused 2/13/2012 4:08:37 AM
OK...there is only so much we should allow from people who feel compelled to express their 'art'...for God's sake it's the Grammy's ....SING

by Barb 2/13/2012 4:08:48 AM
Not sure if Nicki or the stage is giving off more compressed air. #grammys

by Michael A. Brodeur via twitter 2/13/2012 4:09:05 AM
RT @TVGMDamian: like the church doesn't have enough problems #Grammys

by Sarah Rodman via twitter 2/13/2012 4:09:16 AM
I blame Madonna for this!!!!!

by Barb 2/13/2012 4:09:22 AM
No Banker, I'm younger and I agree

by Notammused 2/13/2012 4:09:31 AM
Is she floating? Is this the Craft?

by mawuseziegbe via twitter 2/13/2012 4:10:01 AM
You just know Tony Bennett is thinking: "This is just great, great." #Grammys

It was a terrific show until now. What a way to ruin a great show.

by Banker from Boston 2/13/2012 4:10:21 AM
Did I just hear the F bomb?

by Honk 2/13/2012 4:10:26 AM
Welp. I give her props for going there. I've never seen a hip-hop performance like that before. #NickiMinaj #Grammys

Record of the Year: Adele, "Rolling in the Deep." "This is ridiculous!" she says. #rollinginit #Grammys

Adele wins Record of the Year #Grammys

by mawuseziegbe via twitter 2/13/2012 4:12:41 AM
I wish we could have another Adele song to wipe away that monstrosity.

by Honk 2/13/2012 4:12:49 AM
She doesn't look twenty something but she seems genuine and very caring. Love the accent.

by Banker from Boston 2/13/2012 4:12:50 AM
Sounds like a bad Fawlty Towers episode.

Adelle seems genuine...at least the music stands for itself...not like some we've seen tonight

I think this sums up the Twitter reaction to the @NickiMinaj #Grammy performance ow.ly
