Potential Grammys Shutdown Music To WGA's Ears
First the Globes - now the Grammys?!?
Variety is reporting that the WGA won't grant a waiver for the music industry's awards show.
This means no celebrity presenters, no snappy scripted banter - heck, even the list of award recipients may be smaller than usual!
This year's Grammy nominees include several performers with extensive experience in films and TV; Variety singles out Justin Timberlake, Queen Latifah, Beyonce, Tim McGraw, T.I., Fantasia, and Jack White.
Furthermore, other nominees have historically shown reluctance to cross picket lines - meaning possibly no Bruce Springsteen, Beastie Boys, or Joni Mitchell either!
As for the performances - the real meat of any Grammys broadcast - Variety is less definite, noting only that "in some cases, managers have delayed accepting an invite to perform on the show until there is greater clarity."
Let's hope they get all this sorted out in time!
Hopefully we at least get to see the Oscars - but, then again, if the writers are going after the Grammys, no awards show is safe!
