Entertainment Tonight’s Nancy O’Dell discusses the best dressed and most memorable moments from the 61st annual ‘GRAMMY Awards.’
Last night saw the 61st annual GRAMMY Awards take over the Staples Center in Los Angeles and Entertainment Tonight’s Nancy O’Dell was front and center to cover all the action from Music’s Biggest Night.
CBS Local’s Matt Weiss spoke to O’Dell earlier today for her thoughts on the night’s best fashion and biggest moments.
NO- Good morning Matt! How are you?
MW- I’m doing well, coming off a really fun GRAMMYs last night!
NO- I have to say it was one of my favorite GRAMMYs! I think it was just fantastic. There was so much nostalgia going on with Diana Ross and then having the tribute to Dolly Parton and Aretha Franklin. I thought Alicia Keys did an amazing job as host, I thought she set the tone from the beginning to make it a safe place for everybody. It was so inclusive and a great representation for women. It was a really feel good ceremony.
MW- I couldn’t agree more. The night kicked off as it always does though with the red carpet and Cardi B certainly stole some headlines with her outfit but you were there what was your impression of the pre-show festivities?
NO- I have to say I loved Camila Cabello’s dress. At the GRAMMYs you can typically go crazy and you won’t get criticized that much because it’s the GRAMMYs so people are used to seeing outrageous outfits. I thought the GRAMMYs were a little more subdued this year. Of course there were the ones like Cardi B that were not subdued and in fact watching her get out and step onto the red carpet – the amount of things that people had to do to get her prepared to walk the red carpet in that dress must have been staggering [laughs]!
First of all I had to wonder how she even arrived there because the dress was HUGE! What kind of car did she take? She obviously must have changed there because she had the thing that looked like a shell and she was coming out of it and then there was the pearl on the top of her head. They literally took probably 10-15 minutes to arrange the outfit and get it ready for her once she got there, so that was a little outrageous.
But then there was Lady Gaga who is known for arriving at the GRAMMYs in something outrageous, she came in a more subdued gown, a gorgeous silver gown with the ruffled side.
