Winner – Ed Sheeran – Here is young Sheeran on his big chance to hug Katy Perry: " a lot on stage and did a show in Canada. I played the set. Stormed it, sweated a lot, got off stage and bumped into Katy Perry. I was like, 'All right Katy Perry, how are you?'"She said, 'I came to your show and I love your album. I was gonna give you a hug but, eeurgh!' and went. That was my chance ruined because I sweated so much." Ed is moving in more and more rarified air since we saw him a year ago at Mercury Lounge (Radio City On Tuesday) but while everybody around him are crazed egomaniacs, always the bridesmaid Ed remains his sweet old self.
Loser – Beyonce – Meanwhile, what a difference a week makes. I promise you that last week I almost warned our winner of the week that she was constantly setting off bad vibes and then it finally caught up with her. Really, it is one thing to lip synch on stage when you need a breather, or on SNL or even the Super Bowl but AT THE PRESIDENT'S INAUGURATION??? Loser.
