BRATISLAVA 14. februára (WEBNOVINY) – Americké country trio Lady Antebellum triumfovalo na 53. udeľovaní hudobných cien Grammy v Los Angeles, keď počas večera premenili 6 nominácií na 5 cien. Najmä zásluhou megahitu Need You Now zvíťazili v kategóriách Skladba roka, Nahrávka roka, Najlepší country album, Najlepší výkon country duo alebo skupiny a Najlepšia country skladba. Lady Antebellum, ktorí pochádzajú z mesta Nashville, sa na scéne pohybujú len päť rokov. Na konte majú dve štúdiové nahrávky – eponymný debut z roku 2008 a jeho nasledovníka Need You Now (2010).

Najprestížnejšiu cenu za Album roka si z Kalifornie odnáša kanadská alternatívna formácia Arcade Fire za nahrávku The Suburbs (2010). „Merci aj do Montrealu. Ďakujeme Vám,“ povedal pri preberaní si ocenenia líder formácie Win Butler. Sklamaním sa galavečer skončil pre detroitského rappera Eminema, ktorý 10 nominácií premenil len na dve ceny. Zvíťazil v žánrových kategóriách Najlepší rapový album a Najlepší rapový sólový výkon. Ešte horšie pochodil Bruno Mars, ktorý zo siedmich nominácií vyťažil len jedinú cenu.
Po tri ocenenia v Los Angeles získala americká blues-rocková skupina The Black Keys, excentrická hudobníčka Lady Gaga, gitarista Jeff Beck, soulový spevák John Legend a s ním hip-hopová formácia The Roots, rapper Jay-Z, dirigent Giancarlo Guerrero a producent klasickej hudby David Frost. O dve sošky si svoju zbierku obohatili BeBe & CeCe Winans, Usher, Alicia Keys a Herbie Hancock. Pre Hancocka to bolo v poradí 14. a 15. Grammy v kariére.
Cenu pre nováčika roka si prekvapujúca odniesla 26-ročná džezová muzikantka Esperanza Spalding. Americká kontrabasistka s hispánsko-waleským pôvodom sa presadila v konkurencii takých interpretov ako Justin Bieber, Mumford a Sons, Florence and the Machine a Drake. Zlatý gramofónik pre najlepší rockový album si z kalifornskej metropoly odniesla anglická formácia Muse za nahrávku The Resistance (2009). Svoju štrnástu Grammy získal legendárny Paul McCartney – v kategórii Najlepší rockový sólový výkon.
Svoje „želiezko v ohni“ malo v Los Angeles aj Slovensko a to zásluhou trnavskej rodáčky Lucie Duchoňovej, ktorá bola nominovaná v kategórii Najlepší spevácky výkon v klasickej hudbe. Slovenka však ocenenie nezískala, keď v jej kategórii triumfovala Talianka Cecilia Bartoli.

Počas 210-minútového priameho prenosu mohli diváci vidieť unikátne a neopakovateľné kolaborácie interpretov svetových mien. Slávnostné udeľovanie hudobných cien otvorilo v pondelok po 02:00 stredoeurópskeho času kvinteto speváčok. Yolanda Adams, Christina Aguilera, Jennifer Hudson, Martina McBride a Florence Welch vzdali spoločným vystúpením hold soulovej kráľovnej Arethe Franklin. V Staples Center vystúpila i excentrická speváčka Lady Gaga s novým singlom Born This Way, ďalej Miranda Lambert, Muse, Bruno Mars, B.o.B a Janelle Monáe. Tridsaťdvaročný Usher sa predviedol s dvojicou tínedžerov – šestnásťročným Justinom Bieberom a ešte o štyri roky mladším Jadenom Smithom. Neskôr sa k slovu dostali aj Mumford a Sons, veterán Bob Dylan, Lady Antebellum či Cee Lo Green v spoločnosti Gwyneth Paltrow s piesňou Fuck You. Divákom v hale i pri televíznych obrazovkách zaspievala i Katy Perry, ktorú uviedol herec Neil Patrick Harris. Pred miliónmi divákov sa predviedli aj Norah Jones, John Meyer, Eminem a Dr. Dre. Spevák The Rolling Stones Mick Jagger si vystúpením uctil pamiatku zosnulého Kráľa Rock n soulu Solomonea Burkea. Pre 67-ročného Jaggera to bola vôbec prvá účasť na galavečere v úlohe účinkujúceho. Legendami nad 60 rokov sa to v Staples center len tak hemžilo. Do tejto kategórie patria aj Barbara Streisand a Kris Kristofferson, ktorí sa naživo ukázali v závere galavečera. Hneď dvakrát na 53. udeľovaní najprestížnejších hudobných cien na svete vystúpila barbadoská hviezda Rihanna, ktorá sa predstavila po boku amerického rappera Eminema s piesňou Love the Way You Lie a o pár minút neskôr vedľa Kanaďana Drakea so skladbou What’s my name?. O posledné hudobné číslo večera sa postarala kanadská alternatívna formácia Arcade Fire. Čerství držitelia zlatého gramofónika za album roka sa so Staples center rozlúčili hitom Ready to Start.
O držiteľoch cien Grammy rozhoduje približne 16-tisíc hlasujúcich členov americkej Národnej akadémie nahrávacích umení a vied. Priamy prenos mal režisérsky na starosti Louis J. Horvitz, o scenár sa postarali David Wild a Ken Ehrlich. Hlavný program Grammy sa začal o 02:00 SEČ, skončil o 05:30 SEČ.
