Exceeded Bon Jovi's? Umm...Gwen Stefani, Usher, and Alicia keys all becoming sluts and receiving awards for it...very unattractive. Alicia Keys' schtick is that she is a soulful pianist with unique vocals...yet she only brought the piano out as a prop and merely sat down at it for literally 5 seconds to plunk out some meaningless nothing in the midst of her sad Madonna immitation with flat vocals. Pitiful. She now looks like every woman who has ever appeared on tv. I muted it all and goofed off with my mates for the whole thing, excepting Jon Mayer, which is sad because I don't really enjoy his music, but he was the only authentic person there. And that is something to admire.

That's what that show was for me. And country music awards going to the howling Ms. 'po-dunk hill-billy white-trash no-teeth red-neck i-screw-my-brother' and Mr. 'i love my beer my broads and my bar'...please. There is much better country out there (and I don't really like all that much of it...but I know Whiskey Lullaby surely was better than any of that garbage). And with only three nominees in each catagory, how did ANY of these people actually get nominated let alone WIN? Not by people living in my world. Money money money. They are all image, and-like chameleons, they will slip their skin when it suits there advisors' wills.

And again I will ask, who was the prositute who introduced the band??? Haha. Funny stuff.

Thank God Kimmel was there to debase the whole mess.

Yes, it was a mess.
