Hear at awards shows. the only difference between meryl streep and what may happen at the grammys is that we're much more used to hearing it at the grammys. remember, these are artists that make songs that are often politically charged. beyonce has "lemonade" and "formation," expected to win big. very politically charged messages on that record. a lot of racial overtones on that record. and i think a lot of people have been celebrating the fact that these artists have a voice and they plan to use it. you mentioned pharrell. that was 2015. 2016, kendrick lamar came up and did a tribute to trayv...

About donald trump, and the producers want people to speak their minds whether you are for or against trump, and people will for sure speak their mind. >> we saw it at the golden globes and s.a.g. awards, and actors and performers come up and talk about that. i want to talk about the big match-up. you have adele and beyonce. it's category after category they are going head to head. >> head to head in almost every single category. right now beyonce leads the nominations with nine, and she's going to break records. she will have the most grammys in history. but we have adele as well, who has swe...
