The 2019 Grammy Awards show aired live from Los Angeles on Sunday night, and it went pretty well, considering, you know, the live part. But there were a few awkward moments for sure.
1. Alicia Keys accidentally called Clarence Avant a “mongol” before correcting herself and saying “mogul.”

4. People also thought that J. Lo was lip-synching. And that she was the wrong person to do the Motown tribute.
Why are we watching jlo lip sync through a Motown tribute when Beyoncé exists?
