Hillary Pops in at the Grammys

Host James Corden did a bit where he asked celebrities to read segments from Fire and Fury, under the comedic pretense of auditioning for Best Spoken Word album for next year. John Legend, Cher, Snoop Dogg, and then...


Video Description: Hillary Clinton appears onscreen in a vibrant red suit, holding a copy of the book over her face. She begins reading. "He had a longtime fear of being poisoned." The crowd erupts in cheers, and she drops the book, revealing her face. "One reason he liked to eat at McDonald's: Nobody knew he was coming, and the food was safely premade."

Corden appears onscreen, saying, "That's it! We've got it. That's the one." Hillary looks at him excitedly. "You think so?!"

"Oh yeah," he tells her.

"The Grammy's in the bag?" she says.

"In the bag," he says, and she laughs.

Of all the responses to this, the best (so far, as Donald Trump has yet to weigh in) was U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley's, registering her disdain like a good little minion.


LOL. Yes, if there's one thing I've always said about music, it's that the more apolitical it is, the better.

(I have never said that. Because that is very stupid.)

Anyway. I didn't watch the Grammys, because, among other reasons, I'm still angry at James Corden, but feel free to use this thread to discuss the show generally, in addition to this bit I highlighted.
