The multi-hyphenate daughter of Michael Jackson opted to pair her skin-baring Celine gown with an absence of her signature ink. Viewers of the 2024 Grammys might have noticed that Paris Jackson went for a look that exuded a sleek and chic vibe, and in doing so, the actress and singer-songwriter somehow wasn’t sporting one of her signature elements: her ink. Jackson worked with New York-based Cover FX, the vegan and cruelty-free skincare line, to “erase” her 80-plus body tattoos to create a clean look for the Grammys red carpet. Makeup artists Tyson Fountaine and Paul Blanch worked on Jackson’s body...

Hollywood is in desperate need of new ideas. Take Sunday’s Grammy Awards, for example. If there were ever a spectacle that could simultaneously be described as demonic and trite, it would be Sam Smith’s performance of “Unholy,” which rang the final death knell for the satanic-ritual-as-art trope. As Federalist contributor Isabelle Rosini wrote, it was as boring as it was unoriginal. Stiletto-clad devils? Latex pants? Whips? Women in cages? Bursts of flame to signify — in case it wasn’t clear enough — that Smith was singing from the pit of hell? “Been there, done that,” artists ranging from Lil Nas...

Likely a fractional audience watched this, because it is so deliberately in yo' face, and covered with pustules of profanity barely bodiced. But overall, vulgarity of a high order goes out to the participants, who, of course, don't give a farthing for either propriety or civility — one bedecked glittery adiposity slipped and let out a four-letter slur, and feigned embarrassment any number of pretend times. Production values, as they say in the biz, were as glitzy as were the frou-frowsy skin-tight dresses of most of the female awardees. Lights, backgrounds, highlights, settings to try to out-blind the gyrations and...

Deborah Dugan, the first woman to lead the Recording Academy, took the reins in August The body that hands out the Grammys said it put its chief executive on leave due to a subordinate’s unspecified allegation of misconduct, 10 days before its flagship awards show. Deborah Dugan, the first woman to lead the Recording Academy, took the reins in August, following public remarks by her predecessor that were widely interpreted as sexist. Citing “a formal allegation of misconduct by a senior female member of the Recording Academy team,” the organization said late Thursday that its board was placing Ms. Dugan...

t's a demo low for the telecast, as it still skews young and the audience drops by 24 percent. Sunday's Bruno Mars-loving Grammy Awards took a dramatic ratings spill, fetching the smallest demo audience in the show's history. The telecast, which ran a bloated three-and-a-half hours, was off by 24 percent from 2017 with adjusted numbers. With time zone adjustments taken into account, the telecast averaged 19.8 million viewers and a 5.9 rating among adults 18-49. The second stat marked a low for the show. Among total viewers, that number was down even more than overnight returns from Nielsen Media...

People with “I’m With Her” back tattoos don’t seem to get how wince-inducingly pathetic it was for Hillary Clinton to attempt to rub Donald Trump’s peccadilloes in his face at the Grammys last night, so picture this: A year after blowing a 28–3 lead in the Super Bowl, Atlanta Falcons coach Dan Quinn appears on national television, his eyes full of mockery, to read aloud that gossipy Sports Illustrated story about troubles within the New England Patriots organization. With a victorious smirk on his face, Quinn reads these words: “Brady always knew the hits were coming during Monday morning film...

Talk about a dress for success! A singer who dressed for Sunday night’s Grammy Awards in a gown that proclaimed “Make America Great Again” on the front and “Trump” on the back has seen the sales of her music skyrocket at least 18 million percent in one day. Joy Villa’s album “I Make The Static” instantly jumped to light speed, soaring to No. 1 on the U.S. iTunes album sales chart, as well as No. 1 on Amazon’s top digital albums. It was previously ranked on Amazon at No. 543,202 before her Grammy appearance. The patriotic dress also helped Villa’s...

The Dixie Chicks may have been "Not Ready to Make Nice," but the Recording Academy was nice to the country-pop trio, giving them nominations in the top three categories for the 49th annual Grammy Awards. The Chicks were nominated for album of the year for their CD "Taking the Long Way," as well as record of the year and song of the year (a songwriter's award) for their single "Not Ready to Make Nice." The group suffered a boycott from some country music radio stations in the aftermath of lead singer Natalie Maines' 2003 comments about President George W. Bush....

Here it is, the last day of the year. Some of us are scratching our heads, wondering where the year went. Others may be thinking "Well, it's about time!!!" The end of the year makes some of us reflect upon the twelve months we have just passed through. Was it a good year for us, for our families? Did we make it through any especially challenging challenges--like reading Grellis's threads? Have we accomplished all that we set out to do? Others do not reflect but rather look ahead to the new year. Do we set realistic goals for ourselves or...

Three days before this year's Grammy Awards ceremony, 97 people died, and 187 people were injured (43 critically), in the deadliest nightclub fire this country has seen in a quarter-century. One of those presumed dead is Ty Longley, a guitarist with Great White, which was playing when the place ("The Station") caught fire. Great White is a heavy-metal band that was fairly popular a dozen years ago. Its cover of "Once Bitten, Twice Shy," from the double-platinum album, …Twice Shy, was nominated for a Grammy in 1990. Although the fire was at a small club (capacity: 300) in little West...
