Sometimes looking back at your own work can be a somewhat humiliating experience — even when it is pretty impressive and has afforded you numerous awards.
Singer Bruno Mars just proved that on Twitter, where he pointed out a lyric that doesn’t actually make sense.

Plenty of people hear a rendition of the happy birthday song on their special day, but not many people get to hear it from the mouth of a best-selling singer.
Bruno Mars is not like most people, though.
“You know you’ve made it when you can hire Ed Sheeran to sing you Happy Birthday,” Mars wrote on Monday night.

What do you give the man who swept the 2018 Grammy Awards?
Your kidney, of course.
Bruno Mars cleaned house at this year’s ceremony, taking home both Album of the Year and Record of the Year.

“I want to thank you soo much! I don’t even know how,” she wrote on Instagram. “Maybe one day you’ll need a kidney…I got you,” she added. Read more…

Recording Academy president tells women to ‘step up’ in music industry hmmm

Keen-eyed viewers may have noticed that only one woman won a major Grammy Award on Sunday, but don’t blame systemic sexism or centuries of gender bias! Recording Academy president Neil Portnow told Variety that women need “step up” in all aspects of the music industry because “I think they would be welcome.”
Oh, OK!
“I don’t have personal experience of those kinds of brick walls that you face but I think it’s upon us — us as an industry — to make the welcome mat very obvious, breeding opportunities for all people who want to be creative and paying it forward and creating that next generation of artists,” said Portnow, a man.

‘Uptown Funk’ has made carpooling awkward for Michelle Pfeiffer’s kids

Michelle Pfeiffer was “flattered” — if a little perplexed — to be name-dropped in “Uptown Funk.”
The mention was, however, a little embarrassing: for Pfeiffer when it randomly starts playing during a workout class, and for her kids when it comes on the radio in the carpool line.
Wonder how they feel about “Riptide” by Vance Joy. Read more…
