When Esperanza Spalding shocked the world by snatching away Justin Bieber’s Best New Artist award at the 53rd Annual Grammy Awards, it signaled a new dawn in the music industry. People are just plain tired of Justin Bieber, who is rumored to be extremely rude to adults — particularly to no name female reporters.
We all know he should have won that award last night (whether he deserved it or not), but the Grammy committee wanted to send a strong message to the cocky kid: you’re not all that!
After eating a slice of humble pie, Justin, 16, literally ran into Spalding, 26, backstage at the Staples Center near the green room where interviews were being conducted. According to MTV News, rather than be bitter, Bieber shook hands with the newly crowned Grammy winner, congratulating her on her victory.
Their meeting was very brief, but the implication was clear: anyone can snatch your crown. You’re never too big to be chopped down to size. Just ask Beyonce.
