In my Facebook feed was a post from someone who linked to the fact that Natalie Grant, who was up for a couple Grammy's (Best Gospel/Contemporary Christian Music Performance and Best Christian Music Song) left the auditorium early, implying it was related to the behavior of Ms Knowles. Two questions: do they even announce these awards during the telecast, and had this woman never watched a Grammy telecast before?
