The 2017 Grammy Awards was one for the ages, and Et's Cameron Mathison is joining ETonline's senior music editor, Sophie Schillaci, in our brand new Absolut Lime Green Room to revisit some of the most refreshingly surprising moments from music's biggest night.
"Everybody on the red carpet was talking about CeeLo Green," Schillaci says.
If there were an award for Best Arrival, the distinction would have gone to the "Forget You" singer, who appeared in all gold from head to toe.
"Was it outrageous? Yes. Was it crazy? Yes," Schillaci continues. "But it was actually part of this new persona CeeLo is trying to make happen called Gnarly Davidson."
Another outrageous moment came during the live show when Twenty One Pilots dropped trou while accepting the award for Best Pop Duo/Group Performance.
"And when you're the host of the show, you got to follow suit," Mathison says. "James Corden dropped trou when they came back from the...

Grammy Award show producers are staying coy on what exactly will happen when Beyonce hits the stage on Sunday, but here's what we do know.
Et has learned that Beyonce's performance might include the singer dressed in gold and appearing on a giant turntable. The theme might be the diva's journey and evolution from child performer to superstar with actresses playing her at different stages of her life.
Exclusive: Beyonce to Perform at 2017 Grammy Awards After Announcing She's Pregnant With Twins
"Whenever she comes, she brings it," executive producer Ken Ehrlich told Et's Kevin Frazier. "Let's hope that -- if that happens -- it'll be pretty amazing."
The Grammy winner isn't expected to do any high-flying acrobatics or over-the-top stunts, considering that she is pregnant with twins, but Ehrlich said that her growing baby bump adds an extra glow that could make for an extra special performance.

All week long, Et's Cameron Mathison has been talking GRAMMYs in our brand new Absolut Lime Green Room, and on Thursday, Et's Nischelle Turner caught up with this year's host doing the most, James Corden.
"I couldn't be more nervous. I couldn't sleep last night I was so nervous," Corden admitted. "Nerves are good. You're only nervous when you want to do your best, and I really don't want to mess it up. I don't want to let anybody down."
But as nervous as Corden is to host the GRAMMYs, he might be more nervous for the chance to meet Beyonce for the first time. As a big fan of Queen Bey, Corden has already planned out what he will do should he get the opportunity to introduce himself.
"I will just [kneel]," Corden joked. "And I will hold it until she says I can come up."
While Corden was tight-lipped about any details surrounding Beyonce's performance (which...

Expect a slightly different kind of Grammy telecast this year, as James Corden takes over as host after five years of LL Cool J.
“There will be more comedy,” said executive producer Ken Ehrlich, who has worked on the show for nearly 40 years. “We’ve carved out some blocks for him.”
Don’t expect to see Corden re-create some of his signature “The Late Late Show” musical bits like “Carpool Karaoke” or “Drop the Mic,” however.
“Hosts have learned in the past, to try and implement their own show on to bigger award shows is a mistake,” said “Late Late Show” executive producer Ben Winston, who’s also working on the Grammys. “Therefore it won’t be that.”
But Ehrlich said Corden and Winston are planning a twist on the “Carpool” idea that will fit the Grammy Awards and satisfy fans.

It’s safe to expect some sort of George Michael tribute when James Corden hosts the Grammys next month.
The late pop icon and the Late Late Show star teamed up in 2011 for a Comedy Relief charity video that paved the way for Corden’s über-popular Carpool Karaoke franchise, and the late-night personality has nothing but fond memories of his time spent with Michael.
“I just felt incredibly lucky to be in his orbit for a moment,” Corden, 38, says of the music legend in the new issue of People.
