PunkTheFunk 123,129 Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 The Washington Post just named Gaga's performance the 7th best performance of the night!!! We did it gays! Lady Gaga transformed her piano into a giant bird, complete with feathers — so really, one of her more understated awards show performances. (Or maybe they were angel wings?) Either way, she started things off with “Joanne,” the title track of her latest album and a ballad that honors her late aunt, who died of lupus in 1974 at age 19. “This is for my father’s late sister, Joanne,” she said. “This is for love and compassion, even when you can’t understand.” When she was done, she looked up and said “Time’s up,” a reference to the legal fund to help fight sexual harassment and inequality in the workplace. Then she segued flawlessly into another ballad, “Million Reasons,” ending it with a questionable high note. We love a questionable icon Kendrick had the best performance of the night according to this list, and Sam Smith had the worst at #14. Dressed in an outfit best described as Boyz II Men meets pajama chic, Sam Smith stood still on stage and reminded us all that we should’ve gone to church this morning. Seriously, this performance was full of finger wagging and disappointed head nods that would put a grandmother to shame. But who is Smith to tell us what to do if he didn’t even make sure the choir was lit properly? Singer Shakira weighed in: https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/arts-and-entertainment/wp/2018/01/28/grammy-awards-2018-ranking-the-live-performances-from-best-to-worst/?utm_term=.9acba080006d -- EDIT: She was also named 6th best by TheWrap.com, out of 20 performances Sam Smith was 17th on this list. https://www.thewrap.com/every-grammys-musical-performance-ranked-kendrick-kesha-beyond/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
