MUSICAL CHAIRSThe seating chart at the Grammy's is a fascinating collage of music history and contemporary genre checking out the placards with names and photos that were set up Thursday on the folding chairs on the arena floor, here are some of the interesting juxtapositions: there's a murderers row of female singers down front row and center - Beyonce, Blige, Alicia Keys, Christina Aguilera, Nelly Furtado and Natalie Cole are within 14 feet of each other; one row back, Gnarls Barkley can chat about movieland minutia with Quentin Tarantino on the other side of the audience Jamie Foxx should be working on his "Roxanne" falsetto, he's sitting next to the Police. The two best seats in the front row belong to two old friends, Tony Bennett and Stevie Wonder, the later serenaded the former at his recent birthday party in Los Angeles. For trippy cross generational conversation, we'd like to be sitting between The Grateful Dead and Busta Rhymes. Closer to the stage, down-home singer Reba McEntire is sitting between Hollywood scenery chewers, Nicolas Cage and Samuel L. Jackson. Finally, the best row for a discussion of world music poly-rhythms, that'd be the section where Wycliff Jean is parked between Shakira and The Police.theenvelope.latimes.com/awards/gram...e-subfeaturebar

I'm looking forward to pretty much everybody. Obviously there are some that I like more than others, but I'm happy with everyone they have. I'm really looking forward to the Police and Carrie (I'm curious to see how she does on the Bob Wills classic). But it's just not them, it's all of the performers. The last few years the Grammys have been boring to me but this year I'm just excited for everybody. I'm glad Beyonce is singing "Listen" instead of irreplaceable. I liked that song when I saw the Dreamgirls movie.

The stage looks so plain this year. Are there any more shots of it at other angles? I feel like it was really intricate looking back in '04 and whatnot.

Does it even matter lol? She'd probably sound bad even if she wasn't sick. What is Wyclef going to do? I know he lipsynched his parts when they did it on Idol, but I'm pretty sure he won't be able to do that tomorrow night. Hmm...

So will Shakira and Beyonce perform twice (their own songs and then the duet)? Weird, especially since Shakira only has 1 nom. I think it's cheap because they're taking a slot away from someone with more nominations.
Actually, a lot of people are performing twice, no? Mary J, Justin (assume the winner of the contest will be a separate performance or at least extended form his own), Beyonce, Shakira, possibly Christina.

That album showcases her live vocals :) Shakira has a powerful and unique voice. Watch this video: www.shakiramedia.com/index.php?page=watchvideo&id=173

Watch this video: www.shakiramedia.com/index.php?page=watchvideo&id=173I have, and her voice is not something I would give an award to! I know her spanish music and while I think she sounds better in english the only vocal perf. that is OK is "Underneath Your Clothes" Obviusly you are a fan and that is alright, we all have different opinions.
