Today in Billboard History

July 3, 2010

Miranda Lambert completed a four-week residence atop Country Songs with her first No. 1, “The House That Built Me.” The following February, the touching ballad earned her a Grammy Award for best female country vocal performance.

This about sums up last night, but for a full rundown of Adele’s glorious sweep, Billboard has you covered. She’s rolling in it, alright.

Last night sort of reminded me of that scene in “Mean Girls” where Damien’s dressed up as Santa, passing out the candy canes - the “you go, Glenn Coco!” scene. Adele’s Glenn Coco, and Gaga… well, she’s Gretchen Weiners. None for Gretchen Weiners, indeed.

We wanted to play our music, but we were told that we couldn’t play. We had to do a collaboration with someone else. And we just felt like it was such a large stage. We’re getting nominated for this record that we made… and all of a sudden we were being asked to play music that had nothing to do with that. We kind of said ‘fuck you’ a little bit and they sort of acted like they wanted us to play, but I don’t think they wanted us to play.
