Grammys

Robert Plant and Allison Krauss were the big winners at this year's Grammy's taking home 5 awards for their collaboration. Backstage Plant was greeted with admiration from his peers... and then Michael Phelps tried to smoke him.

The night was full of star-studded collaborations including Stevie Wonder backing up the Jonas Brothers. It's the first time in Stevie's career that he wished he were deaf instead of blind.

Man, if only Stevie could see himself on stage rocking out with the new generation of teen heartthrobs... he'd probably want to go back to not being able to see.

The most talked about moment of the night came when a nine-months pregnant MIA performed with an all star rap foursome that included: Kanye West, T.I., Jay Z and Lil' Wayne. It's the first time a pregnant woman and 4 black men shared the same stage without Maury Povich present.

Paul McCartney performed the Beatles classic, "When I Saw Her Standing There" with Foo Fighters frontman Dave Grohl on drums. Originally, Def Leppard's one-armed drummer Rick Allen was supposed to sit in behind the kit but ever since McCartney's divorce from Heather Mills, Paul has a strict no amputees policy.
