Sunday’s sixty fifth Annual Grammy Awards on CBS was a woke, bizarre mess with a shocking lack of opinions on U.S. politics. 

As chances are you’ll keep in mind, when it got here Donald Trump’s presidency, clueless celebrities sometimes had one thing adverse to say every time they got a platform to do it.

However relating to President Joe Biden, he appears to get a go, regardless of the challenges our nation is going through beneath his administration.

For those who watched the present and did not know something about American politics, you wouldn’t even know he was president, as he was not talked about by title even as soon as.

In distinction, comic Trevor Noah (who hosted the present for the third 12 months in a row) couldn’t resist the chance to make an inexpensive joke at Trump’s expense inside the first 10 minutes of the present.

Trevor Noah: Give it up for Dangerous Bunny, everyone! Wow! [ Applause ] Wow, that was unbelievable! Completely unbelievable. , each time I hearken to him, I get hips I by no means knew I had. It makes Trump wish to study Spanish.

The joke was in response to Puerto Rican rapper Dangerous Bunny’s all-Spanish opening act. There wasn’t one English phrase sung or mentioned by Dangerous Bunny throughout your entire opening act, not one! For those who had been channel browsing and landed on this present, you might have thought you had been watching the Latin Grammys.

Noah went on to crack a joke about inflation whereas introducing singer Jennifer Lopez ––  saying “even with inflation, her love do not value a factor,” which was a reference to one in every of her hit songs from 15-20 years in the past. 

The comic additionally requested singer Taylor Swift if her followers may tackle hovering egg costs, like they did Ticketmaster. 

Trevor Noah: I’ve obtained to inform you, Taylor, you may have the most effective followers within the world. I imply, what they did with Ticketmaster, what they may do for artists everywhere in the world, what they may do for followers who wish to go to live shows is wonderful. I am simply questioning as soon as they’re completed with this, are you able to get them to deal with the worth of eggs? 

Taylor Swift: There’s actually nothing that they can not accomplish. They’re going to get on it. Simply allow them to know what you want. 

Trevor Noah: Swifties, worth of eggs down. You go after these chickens. 

Does Swift even identified how a lot a carton of eggs prices today? Based on Forbes, the singer has a web value estimated at greater than $500 Million {dollars}–– the worth of eggs most likely is not a prime concern for her. 

Now, a Hollywood awards present wouldn’t be full and not using a creepy, satanic themed efficiency, proper?!

Singers Sam Smith and Kim Petras carried out ‘Unholy’ on stage with a Hell-inspired  background, crammed with tall flames, cages, satan costumes and Smith even sported a satanic prime hat.

And in direction of the tip of the 3-plus hour present, First Girl Jill Biden hit the stage to current the Grammy tune of the 12 months, this regardless of President Biden not being talked about by title one time throughout your entire awards present.

The First Girl additionally didn’t hassle to say him.

Trevor Noah: Welcome again to music’s largest night time. This subsequent presenter is the one individual on the planet who is aware of which of tonight’s songs the president sings within the bathe. My cash’s on “About rattling time.” Women and gents, the First Girl of america, Jill Biden. [ Applause ] 

Jill Biden: Thanks. Thanks very a lot. Thanks. A tune can unite, encourage, and finally change the world.

Greater than 130,000 individuals have responded with submissions of songs that promote consciousness, increase consciousness, and encourage change.

Tonight, I’m honored to announce the primary winner of the recording academy’s greatest tune for social change. Shervin hajipour, an Iranian singer-songwriter for his stirring tune “Baraye.” This tune turned the anthem of the Mahsa Amini protests, a strong and poetic name for freedom and girls’s rights. 

To be frank, it was factor that we did not must hearken to celebrities blab on about politics through the awards present, that is the way it ought to be. With that being mentioned, you possibly can’t assist however discover how quiet liberal Hollywood is now that the individual most of them publicly supported is in cost. 

Based on ‘The Hollywood Reporter,’ final 12 months’s Grammys ‘narrowly averted setting a second straight all-time rankings low.’ 

So the query now’s: will there be an uptick in viewers for the Grammys, or are on a regular basis People bored with the woke elite lecturing us, whereas patting themselves on the again for a number of hours? 

We might be maintaining a watch out for the rankings announcement.
