this woman is amazing. the best presenter i ve been seen, so daring so bold, she is definitely a Gay Man born in a woman's body. One of a kind for sure
Why is she not paid One Million Dollars to Be The Host of EveryThing. To Host The Oscars. To Host Everything. This Big Amazing Star. This Woman. The Hostess. The Very Best Of The Best Ever. BetteM.
That ain' Stevie's daddy. That's Don King BEFORE the troll hairdo before he managed The Jacksons and before he managed Mike Tyson. I guess he managed Stevie at one point, too.
bette could be "tacky" back in the day, dissing just about anybody and everybody in her live performances-including people in the audience. her pot shots at karen were all in fun, though in later years she did have regrets and made her apologies. bette was and remains a very classy broad
She should not comment about Karen Carpenter. It was just one of a number of similar comments she made about her. Sting has a habit of doing this as well. They should just do what they do and let other people do what they do, we dont all want to listen to Midler or Sting.
@simonsmatthew Her comment was not about Karen Carpenter. She was making a joke about the slide her own career took after receiving the Best New Artist grammy ....which happened to have been presented to her by Karen Carpenter.
@simonsmatthew Her comment was not about Karen Carpenter. It was about the slide her own career took after being awarded the Grammy for best new artist....which happend to have been presented to her by Karen Carpenter..... btw...Karen Carpenter didn't die until 1983, so if you are thinking that the comment was a tasteless reference to Karen's passing...clearly you are wrong.

@simonsmatthew Karen didn't take offensive to that comment. She took it in stride. I remember reading about her friendship with Bette Midler and that subject was mentioned. However, Richard wasn't too keen with Bette though.
@rbsvy91368 For sure and although millions of people watch these things and they certainly can be fun (often for the wrong reasons), awards shows like this are really just part of the absurdity of our times. Its about showing off, egos, and pretty clothes. It has very little to do with music and how good you are at the craft of making it, and everything to do with the music industry. But what the hec...
@lilchuy01 Bette and Elton John appeared in the CHER show special that launched CHER's solo return to variety show television in 1975 and no CHER did not give her a solo number or Elton for that matter....
This is a tape from 35 years ago, folks. At that time, different artists had different "social" and peer standing than they do now. In the context of February 1975..what Bette said was very funny. The Carpenters had entered a horrible sales slump by 1974 after an astounding 5 year run.
@aprilshey16 the comment was not directed towards Karen....it was directed at herself because Bette had no big hits on the charts that year or a top 10 hit until she recorded The Rose in 1980.....so the joke was on Bette which means she can laugh at herself and that what makes her brilliant :o)
Stevie Wonder did have a kick-ass album, just like Innervisions and Talking Book before it, FFF was another classic album that still sounds head and shoulders above most pop, rock, soul records -- not that Band on the Run wasn't great ... or Court and Spark, or even the Elton John Denver records they were good too. Stevie Wonder was in a class by himself at the time ... living legend.
@tygersflowerz Actually Stevie Wonder is the only artist in the history of the Grammy's 2 win "Album Of The Year three times in a row. Stevie Wonder=G.O.A.T.
OooohMG!! I'm just now watching these grammy awards....ALL the artists nominated were music Gods! Every album was a masterpiece in its day and STILL today! The music in the 70's was ground breaking and to be cheerished forever!
I LIVE!!!! WERK!!
