Props to Best New Artist Grammy winners Maroon 5 (fronted by oh-so-hot Adam Levine) for snagging the award from expected winner Kanye West. Levine was so surprised and humbled that the first sputtering words of his acceptance speech were “Kanye West, I want to thank you so much for being wonderful.” We hereby present Levine with a “Jmerica Mensch Award”, an invisible statuette made of pure air so it won’t crowd out that shiny new Grammy.
The Maroon 5 disk is incredible, got it last year and i’m still playing in the ipod.
Best New Artist is a once-in-a-lifetime award and I’m glad Maroon got it. Great choice by the grammy folks.
Now, if only Kanye was Jewsih…
Kanye sang about a Jewish guy and won a grammy for it! Best Rap Song for “Jesus (the palestinian Jew) walks”. Close tho.
