Grammy 2012: Adele la regina dei premi. Lady Gaga torna a casa a mani vuote

Adele e Foo Fighters. Foo Fighters e Adele. Ecco il riassunto dei Grammy Awards  2012. Le aspettative non sono state deluse, i fans della giovane promessa inglese sono stati accontentati. Lei (e la sua spocchia) anche questa volta hanno vinto. Sei statuette per lei e 4 per la band capitanata da Dave Grohl. Inaspettatamente (e fortunatamente) un premio anche per le ricercate sonorità di Bon Iver (Best New Artist).

Ma durante la serata cos’è successo? Un duetto inaspettato tra i Coldplay e Rihanna. Una Rihanna bionda e riccia: nuovo look che, detta come va detta, sembra avvicinarsi a quello anni Ottanta di Whitney Houston. Alicia Keys che dopo l’arrivo del maschietto di casa sembra aver dimenticato che esiste la bilancia e che la linea per lo showbiz è fondamentale.

Lady Gaga si fa fotografare con Paul McCartney, però resta a bocca asciutta: tante nomination e nessun premio. Camaleontica vestita di verde ma coi capelli blu è Katy Perry fresca fresca dell’ennesima ristampa del suo album. Insomma, ce n’è per tutti i gusti. Durante la cerimonia poi, la cantante e attrice Jennifer Hudson ha cantato la famosa canzone I Will Always Love You di Whitney Houston, commovendo la platea. C’era modo di esimersi? Decisamente no.
