THE 54TH GRAMMY'S - PERFORMANCES

THE 54TH GRAMMY'S - PERFORMANCES

The 54th Grammy's became one of the most talked about award shows in recent Grammy's history. The entire music industry mourned over the tragic loss of the great iconic Whitney Houston on Saturday afternoon. We were all still in shock with what had happened. I thought the Grammy's handled it quite well by acknowledging Whitney's death at the very beginning of the show. The rest of the award show went as usual - awards given, performances, montages, awards given and performances. There were a few standout performances from last night in my book - Adele, Jennifer Hudson, Bruno Mars, Paul McCartney, Kelly Clarkson, Carrie Underwood and Katy Perry. Honorable mentions go to the dance mashup with Chris Brown, David Guetta and Lil' Wayne. Check 'em out!

Jennifer Hudson - I Will Always Love You

Jason Aldena and Kelly Clarkson - Don't You Wanna Stay

Bruno Mars - Runaway
