Famous singers, Beyonce and Adele were nominated for the following categories at the Annual Grammy Awards: Song of the Year, Record of the Year, and Album of the Year. Adele won all three categories. During her graceful acceptance speech, she gave tearful accolades to Beyonce, calling her “the artist of her life,” and stating that Beyonce’s album Lemonade was “monumental.” Beyonce cried during Adele’s speech and appeared to be very touched by her words of praise. In recent news, people have speculated about Beyonce’s Grammy Award loss being fueled by “racism,” Prominent figures have theorized that Lemonade was perhaps “too black.” The Left’s innate instinct to blame racism for the culprit of their dissatisfactions never ceases to amaze me.

She couldn’t packem in for Shillary at a free concert. She should be worried.
And now Russia is hacking the Grammy awards. What next, the Oscars? Hollywood might have to attack preemptively.
Both names are familiar but I actually have no idea who either one is.
I just hate it when Jeopardy has questions (answers) based on contemporary performers. I never know they are and sometimes not even what they are talking about.
What is doubly annoying is they seem to be skewing the categories toward those types lately.
I find her as irritating as a kardashian. Tired of hearing about these narcissists.
If Carlos Santana says she didn’t deserve to win because she can’t sing, I believe him.
Racism? Wait. So does that mean she didn’t win her other Grammys on talent? but simply because Obama was president?
Which is it?
Beyonce used to be a good singer. Then she married JayZ...tried to watch her at superbowl that one year...horrible.
The only reason people pay attention to her is because she is married to JayZ. She is a horrible singer and Adle is way better. Adel has a great voice.
A victim of racism?
LOL... If anything, Beyonce is a victim of her very own racism.
WAIT
That won't work, because America First is the chant of Trump supporters. And Adele is not American. HUM can't figure it our. The only explanation is that people voted for the best singer.
... because you can always find idiots online saying stupid things.
I'd say ignore them, but some of them aren't just run-of-the-mill idiots but already have media podiums.
Still, making a big deal out of this is just giving them the publicity they want.
Let me break it down for you. There are still some oldsters in the Recording Academy. Adele's music sounds more like what they were listening to when they were young. So they tipped the balance and gave the award to Adele. It wasn't racism.
I believe she was in an Austin Powers movie; as an Anglo, she’ll never mean anything else.
Anyway, Adele is a vocalist, currently considered the best voice by those following that music trend.
(I only know because my kids told me.)
Let's be fair. If American Negroes can call native Africans "African-Americans", why can't we call native Brits "British-Americans".
It’s not close. Beyonce has a weak voice which she employs in the service of lame pop songs, and is famed far more for her willingness to expose her “assets” than for her singing and songwriting skills. Adele has an unmistakably amazing voice and her songs touch the deepest parts of the human experience, especially love and loss.
Color me shocked. I didn’t think whites were allowed to win anything anymore. Unless you’re a flaming transexual homosexual.
Well of course it was racism.......she’s black isn’t she?...../s
I hope, really really hope you are kidding.
