Tina Turner and Beyonce ripped it tonight. It was so good to see Tina Turner back on stage. She is really a powerhouse performer and I can believe what she is able to do at 68. I’ve seen Destiny’s Child do Proud Mary in some of their concerts so it was good to see Beyonce do it side by side with the original. They really lit up the stage together.

Kanye West had a great performance. The dedication to his mother was really moving and one of the most memorable performances of the night.

Rihanna performed with Morris Day and The Time (if you don’t know who they are, rent Purple Rain and educate yourself). It was nice to seem them to doing the old-school dances together but I wasn’t all that impressed.
Fergie did a stripped down performance of her ballad “Finally”, with the John Legend (the song’s producer) on the keys. I know this girl can sing because I’ve seen performances where she really blows it out. I’m not sure this was one of her best nights.

Alicia Keys Performed a virtual duet with a hologram of Frank Sinatra. She sounded wonderful but it wasn’t really my thing.
Carrie Underwood performed with what looked like the cast of “Stomp”. She got a little Christina Aguilera towards the end!

Beyonce took a risk with the new hair and powder-blue gown. I think the color change in the hair is hot and I love that gown. I’m not sure who made it but I’ll keep you posted.

Fergie rocked this canary yellow Calvin Klein gown. I think this look really softens her up and and the sleek silhouette was a nice contrast to all puffy gowns on the red carpet today.
