It's prolly about the OutKast performance, I guess.

And the funny thing, I didn't realize that "Heyaaaa" chorus was an Indian cry.... until like, now! So that explains the gawdy green outfits they were wearing.... *eyeshift*

If you seriously wish for a public apology, write letters. Online petitions allow for far too much fraud, forgery and general tomfoolery. If you flood them with enough letters, you may gain their attention. For now, I highly doubt any one of the recipients of the petition are even aware of it.

The Grammys:

The Recording Academy
3402 Pico Blvd.
Santa Monica, CA 90405



Arista Records:

Arista Records
6 W. 57th St.
New York, NY 10019
(212) 489-7400

Outkast are far from p. diddy wannabes.. They are nothing alike. That's another example of terrible stereotyping. But I also missed the grammys.. What happened?

I never watch awards shows.

But Hey Ya is the only hip hoppish song I have ever liked. Ever. It's awesome.

http://msnbc.msn.com/id/4264467/ - This is what happened. CBS has now also formally apologized.
