The Grammys

I’m going to be honest with you this post has absolutly nothing to do with photography or anything related to photography. This is personal!

Ok so last night I was one of the crowd and watched the Grammys. I’m not a big celebrity follower, I like music because I like it and not who is singing it. If a person was to look at the music on my iPod that might have some questions why I have Charley Pride , Kid Rock and Adele in the same playlist- it’s simple I like them all.

The one thing that absolutely disgusted me last night was that people stood up and cheered for a woman beater. There aren’t a lot of things that I have really strong feelings about but violence is defiantly one of them. Chris Brown three years ago beat Rihanna on conscious, pushed her out of the car, and drove away. He denied it at first, then admitted it and was later sentenced – to probation! If that was my husband his ass would have been in jail. The fact that money talks is one thing but it doesn’t mean that we have to be ok with his actions and cheer him on.

As someone on twitter so kindly pointed out to me last night-

• but he’s has a hard upbringing. Guess what that’s not an excuse for anything.
• He’s was punished and was remorseful- puleeeze
• Rihanna has forgiven him- If  you truly believe that you have bigger things to worry about than how I think Chris Brown is an asshole

Hor the record she has since deleted all her tweets where she was condemning those being “mean” to Chris Brown

I came across this video today so thought that I would share it here because honestly it’s kinda how I feel about this topic.

Now onto the good stuff- Adele! How much to you love this girl? She has overcome and achieved so much this year. I love everything about her. I love that she is genuine, and beautiful, and couldn’t care less about being thin. She is a realy woman. She is also and incredible singing.

If you haven’t bought Adele’s album 21 go do it now- here’s the iTunes link, your welcome.

Because this is one of the biggies on my wish list. I thought I’d create a little gift suggestion for the people you love. Here’s a little something for you Pinterest fans- now you can pin this to your- things I want board, again you are welcome.
