LIST! Here again is your Grammy Winners 2010 List. Your Grammy Winners 2010 List came in a night of classy performance and charming tributes.

Prince and Paris Jackson took the stage to accept their father’s lifetime achievement award following an introduction of music’s biggest icons.

Pink hung from the ceiling in one of her best all time awards show performances. Beyonce took the house down in her number. And GaGa and Elton John killed it.

Jersey Shore even took to the Red Carpet with Snooki and The Situation taking on reporter skills for different channels. And if you are wondering, yes, The Situation even undress himself on the red carpet to show off his abs.

Classy kid, huh.

After a season of music award shows dominated with wins from Taylor Swift, Beyonce changed all that, taking more of the top honors alongside Swift.

Nearly shut out of the major categories was highly nominated newcomer Lady GaGa who picked up wins in the earlier, pre telecast, dance categories.

Here’s the list of winners:

LIST! Here again is the final complete list of 2010 Grammys Winners. Your 2010 Grammy Award winners breaks trends of recent awards shows.

After a season of music award shows dominated with wins from Taylor Swift, Beyonce changed all that, taking more of the top honors alongside Swift.

Nearly shut out of the major categories was highly nominated newcomer Lady GaGa who picked up wins in the earlier, pre telecast, dance categories.

Reaction to the Grammys was warm online, not hot. The Grammys failed to draw viral sensations following the non-drama telecast. By Monday morning, hardly anything from the show appeared to carry the viral nature of comparable telecasts form the AMAs or MTV Awards.

Album of the year went to Taylor Swift, song of the year went to Beyoncé, Single Ladies (Put A Ring On It), and record of the year to Kings of Leon, Use Somebody.
