Grammy Gossip: 2018 Grammy Recap!

I was really excited for this year's Grammy Award Show... I like watching awards shows and commenting on them and anything with performances are especially fun. And there were lots of performances this time around too- which was really cool!

My personal favorite performances... obviously Lady Gaga... she's my favorite and I just think she did a great job. Kenderick Lamar opened the special and did a really great job with it... it was definitely fitting with all the awards he won last year and this year also... he's really great. Kesha's performance was incredibly moving... it was just so powerful to see all those women together there to support Kesha... I would be in Awe if Cyndi Lauper was performing my song alongside of me. Another moving performance was by some of the best new artist nominees... Alessia Kara, Logic and Khalid... after seeing the In Memoriam ending with Chester Bennington... that was really moving and I thought it was a great performance! And Bruno Mars and Childish Gambino were really great too... Bruno Mars is so fun to watch perform! And I love Childish Gambino and I thought they did a beautiful job with everything.

I was a little sad that Ed Sheeran wasn't at the awards... I would have liked to see him perform... I also would have loved to see Lorde perform... I was upset that she didn't perform anything! She was also the only woman nominated for Album of the year... so that was kind of something to take note of too... I thought Joanne and Rainbow should have been nominated... but they're doing great things on their own anyway... but whatever lol. I want them to be nominated... especially with how unique Rainbow was... I do think Bruno Mars deserved it... but Rainbow should have been nominated.

Alright back to the events of the show... James Corden was a really funny host. I liked the Carpool Karaoke on the subway with Shaggy and Sting... and Shaggy said "wasn't me" which is just really funny. I liked the bit with James Corden's parents going to Hamilton... which apparently they really did! And I liked that James promoted his own movie "Into the Woods" while introducing Anna Kenderick... I love that movie and Corden did such a great job in that too... lol. I just thought he was funny.

And I didn't mention the most moving performance of the night because I didn't actually see it. I missed the tribute to the victims from Las Vegas... but I think it's amazing that they honored the fans that were at a regular concert and unfortunately were killed in a senseless tragedy. From what I saw the tribute was really beautiful.

I thought it was a great year for music and I'm happy I watched the awards!

Bye!

Scribbles about TV: Jane The Virgin Review!

This I think is a surprise hit, so of corse I needed to watch it for myself to see! It's been getting a lot of critical buzz because it has been reviewed as "one of the best pilots of the season" and I also have been hearing a few critics saying that they don't think it will last because the word "virgin" is in the title... which is stupid. There is nothing wrong with being a virgin and if a show is good, its good and people should watch it... plus this did bring pretty high ratings for The CW so the critics that said that can suck it! Lol. Overall I really liked this show. One thing thats been bothering me a lot about the new Fall shows is that the characters aren't interesting enough. Especially the female characters. I thought that this showed a lot of really strong female characters that were interesting. This had a pretty big cast with A LOT of stuff going on for a pilot and most of the characters were female. That is a powerful thing to see on TV...

Top 10 Dating Tips/ Suggestions

So I've been in a relationship for about 2 and a half years... but before that I was single... for a very long time. And I was on dating apps for about a year or so before that... so here's what I learned from those apps. If you want more specific relationship advice I have from being in a relationship... that one might be a little harder but I guess I could do a blog on that too? Idk... I'm not an expert but I think I have some good tips.  Find an App That Works For You  I feel like not all apps work for everyone. I started on Bumble- and I like the app. I love the idea of girls taking the first move- but... I HATE making the first move apparently. So I would just match with a bunch of guys... and never really knew what to talk about. Plus I like having A LOT of info in my bio and Bumble just doesn't give enough space for me. I only went out with 1 guy from Bumble I think and it was bad.  So after that I tried Coffee Meets Bagel... which is terrible. Maybe depending on...

Scribbles About TV: Jane The Virgin Finale Review (SPOILERS)

So.... Can we talk about all the twists because there were a lot! I didn't even see all of them coming! Alrighty we start out in typical Jane The Virgin Mode with Jane's choice between Raphael and Michael... I'd be okay with either but I think I'm team Michael. Jane has a weird moment with Raphael and thinks she's better off without him and just having him be the father of her child. She's also starting to have some feelings for Michael again. Then she almost has the baby on the bus and some woman helps her and gets the bus driver to take her to the hospital. Rogellio and Xo are in Vegas and they get drunk and can't remember what happens, but they make it just in time to see Jane deliver a baby boy. I knew it would be a boy! Lets pause on that a little and go to Michael and his ex partner/friend with benefits who comes back says she has a lead on Sin Rostro, gives him an address where the plastic surgeon is and by the time Michael gets there, he's de...
