See what I mean? That isn’t so much a list of awards winners so much as it is an impenetrable wall of text with a bunch of celebrities and vaguely-defined categories. Seriously, the Grammy nominations are less muddied than this, and I’m pretty sure they’re only a few years away from just loading trophies into one of those t-shirt guns they use at baseball games and firing them into a crowd of musicians.
