The Grammy Awards were a ratings dud.
Despite putting on an excellent, classy show, the Recording Academy came in with just 7.8 million viewers. That’s down from 8.8 million last year, an 11% drop.
The show still won the evening and beat “American Idol,” its biggest competition, handily.
But the low number is a disappointment considering some great segments, especially Lady Gaga in her tribute to Tony Bennett, Lenny Kravitz with HER Music, the appearance of Joni Mitchell with Bonnie Raitt, and so on.
I’m not even going to bother commenting on Zelensky making a Zoom appearance, that was just so wrong on so many levels.
