When were the Grammy's?

Oh, no!  Big Brother didn't win anything?  I'm shocked.

19-year old absolute genius mega-talent displays humility and recognition of racial bias in her industry and three old white dudes want to criticize...why?

[El Paso Eagle]

Shame on them for having an opinion that was not pre approved by you. Also, why does their skin color and age matter?

Thanks for bringing racism and ageism into the discussion.

Sure, I can't wait to be "woke" and am trying to determine what other "ism" you can work into your discussion.  I probably won't respond since I tend to get time out from the board, but you feel free to go right ahead.

As “terrible” as America apparently is I read somewhere where about a billion people would bust our borders to still get here.  
 

••• Can we ever talk the high percentages of every race in the USA who are not bad, mean & ugly?  (crickets)?  No ratings on that kind of story, right, Wolf?

I'm not familiar with Megan Thee Stallion, but how embarrassing for her...she doesn't win, then gets patted on the head in front of everyone like a kindergartner. Or maybe she's thankful Billy Eilish is there to hold her hand? She's a professional so I hope not...

Yeah.  At this point, it's old schtick, because it's the second year in a row she's done this.  I mean, I admire her modesty, I guess, but the award is subjective, and to me it rings false.  Just stay home next time if you don't want to be honored.  But, I guess she thinks she's sticking it to the Grammy's.  I think she's just embarrassing the also-rans, and grabbing more headlines.  Possibly unintentionally.

But then again, who gives a rats ass?
