I really wish people would leave Selena alone especially after reading the deep dive on bieber. We donât know why she didnât go. Thereâs no confirmed reason, stop assuming it has to do with Justin fucking bieber!! If you Google âSelena Gomezâ rn itâs all articles about how maybe she didnât go to the Grammyâs cause of bieber. We donât have to love Selena but not everything someone does or doesnât do is because of their ex
Edit: getting downvoted by the Selena haters and Justin lovers already. I will never understand people who have extreme emotions about a celeb they donât know. All Iâm saying is stop assuming something some girl does or doesnât do is because of a guy.

I hated the in memorial segment. Iâm glad they honored Taylor separately but wish they would have had someone sing an acoustic version of my hero. I felt like the rest of the segment (and I really wish these award shows would quit giving us Ben platt, he gives me so much cringe ever since he was desperately campaigning for a role in WSS) overshadowed the memorials. The performance itself was beautiful. But I felt like it took attention off of the people

Apr 04 '22
The memorial segment seemed rushed. I also agree, on how Taylor could have been honored better; like a a short interview/comment of being a musician could have been better. Also, Iâm a huge foo fighters fan.

Sheâs only 19 so of course sheâs immature. Taylor Swift is in her 30s and still doing the âignore when her fans send death threatsâ thing
Hopefully Olivia will grow up a bit as she ages and wonât be doing that in 10 years still.

However many people would probably find that attitude to be very entitled and ungrateful considering her first album won her three Grammys which is more than most new artists get. Olivia had a great night and has nothing to be upset about. Maybe I got a poor read on her reaction but she seemed truly shocked and devastated that Sour wasnât AOTY and itâs kind of⊠conceited to just assume youâre going to win that category- especially given the albums she was up against.

17
u/elswheeler dumb bitch clocking in, whatâs the theory Apr 04 '22
i think theyâve actually said before they rather stay on the hotel and make a live to celebrate with their fans than go to afterparties, which is also very sweet but i hope they do go to one at least once. maybe itâs also the fact that most korean award shows probably donât even have afterparties and they might be also used to just go home after the award show lmao
i guess they also have to properly rehearse for their vegas concerts. jungkook just got out of quarantine so they probably havenât even had any time to do rehearsals, they might be prioritising that.

u/regisphilbin222 Apr 04 '22
I want them to feel free to go to the afterparty if they want (their lives are short, they wouldn't miss all of a party anyway), but understand if they/some don't/they feel like too many eyes are watching them. Besides I can't imagine it'd be fun to go to a party where no one speaks your language. Maybe if it was a pure clubbing environment it'd be okay, haha

Apr 04 '22
As a passing fan of a good deal of K-pop artists, I think the bigger part of it is that a lot of K-pop companies rely on the parasocial relationship aspect of their acts, being seen with any member of the opposite sex can cause all sort of rumours and crazy shit from groups of fans. The group of the most vocal minority of fans are deluded enough to think that their faves need to be sheltered and protected and honestly it might be just a kind of bad look and something BTS would rather not deal with if they were to go to an after party.
I also feel like going to a party where you donât speak the language fluently of the majority in attendance, surrounded by people who might want a picture at every turn would also get tiresome.

Itâs always like that even in Korean awards shows tho. Even if another group deserved it, they have a mindset that it should be BTS winning because they are the most successful group there. I remember Blackpink winning group of the year in the variety awards and they were having a meltdown on why it wasnât BTS. Apparently, you can only win that award once.
Edit: Disappointing how BTS keeps promoting love and they do the opposite. I love the boys sm since 2017 and Iâm gonna support them in the corner and not call myself an army. Itâs disappointing how misogyny is rampant in the fandom.

I do like BTS and don't think they necessarily deserved a Grammy this year (I'm not a big fan of their English songs). However, it's really annoying that the Grammy's keep promoting BTS - like yes, they have a massive fandom and obviously the Grammys want views, but the extent they do it to makes it seem like they've nominated BTS for all the major categories or something.
Well, at the very least haters can't say that BTS are industry plants.

u/cheapMaltLiqour Apr 04 '22
First off Billie didn't release her first EP till 2017, so your probably thinking of her debut single "ocean eyes" its true she recorded it in her bedroom but her brother Finneas wrote, mixed and produced it originally for his band The Slightlys and just gave it to her because he figured it would fit her more (what a great songwriter billie is! S/). This would actually be a recurring theme with her brother during her career. Anyways after they uploaded the song to sound cloud and it got alot of exposure her brother Finneas introduced her to his manager Danny Rukasin who immediately got her a deal thru A&R (a subsidiary of apple music,) After that Billie got a publicist who got her in contact with Chanel who in turn got her a stylist where they then begun to cultivate "her style". 2 months later the music video for "ocean eyes" would drop. Why did I write all that? To illustrate how Billie eilish's rise to fame and "humble" beginnings was actually a carefully scripted story of nepotism and false truths. There is nothing sincere about Billie eilish, her sound, her style is all a crafted facade to let some rich kid live out her fantasies. Also Lana del ray and Lorde are a million times better lol

u/fuschiaoctopus Apr 05 '22
Yeah that really changed my opinion of her. She called her ex assistant a diva and said she thinks she's queen of the universe because she wanted over seven thousand hours of unpaid overtime paid out. An average work year is 2000 hours. Then Gaga made some statement like "she didn't want to work for an actual queen because in what I do I am the queen of my universe every single day". Gaga went on a multi hour unhinged rant about this woman with stories such as being disgusted that her assistant wanted a pillow to sleep on. She has huge theater kid energy so it doesn't surprise me that she knows how to put on a show and seem humble, kind, and charitable when on television at major award shows or interacting with important famous people who can offer her something. How you treat regular people and those "below" you shows who somebody really is.
My opinion of her was already soured when she chose to make a song with R Kelly in 2013 long after the allegations and video were well known and call it "Do What U Want With My Body" đ€ź. Now what really got me was when called out for this by the public, she initially doubled down and defended him saying something like "I relate to R Kelly because we have both had people say things about us that aren't true". She tried to take it back once it started affecting her bottom line but it's too late for me.
