Stef 61,645 Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 As expected, the Grammy Awards have been postponed indefinitely due to coronavirus-related concerns, an Academy spokesperson has confirmed to Variety. No new date has been confirmed as of yet. While the 2022 show had been moving full speed ahead to take place on Jan. 31 before a full audience at its traditional venue, the Crypto.com Arena (formerly known as the Staples Center) in downtown Los Angeles, the recent Covid-19 surge has caused the postponement or cancellation of multiple events across the country. Sources tell Variety that even though the Crypto.com Arena has a basketball or hockey game or a concert booked nearly every night until mid-April, enough artists and executives voiced reluctance about appearing to convince the Academy to postpone the show.

Suspiria 10,683 Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 I don't care that much but, idk surely award shows are one of the easiest things to do safely? Everyone has an allocated seat, only specific people are invited, everything's on a strict schedule. They're all rich and can afford to get tests. I don't get what the problem is.

BillieGOAT 5,233 Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 This is so unnecessary…. just do what you did last year??? COVID was way worse a year ago as far as safety goes.. this seems like there might be something else going on behind the scenes or something Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

G U C C I 5,511 Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 So all those people won't be traveling to all corners of the world for various reasons during this month? And I am sure that none of those same artists and executives will be attending half of the concerts, basketball games or hockey matches scheduled at the same damn arena, right? And covid is the actual reason they can't get together for one night for an awards ceremony? K Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadreMonster 2,584 Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 Why are people mad about this like it’s just a bunch of rich people awarding each other - nothing to be upset about. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnWayne92 2,221 Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 Even tho omicron isn’t as severe, it’s infecting more people at once, which is going to have more breakthrough cases, more spreading, more of it all. A more contagious variant can be just as dangerous as a more severe variant. Also, all of you bitching because they are postponed, don’t we come here all the time talking about how the Grammys ain’t s**t!? Lol Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
