Good for him. 3.5 hours of "star-gazing", "bimbo-watching", "fashion judging" amongst a group of the most pretentious human beings known to mankind, and you shorten a song ? Why ? To allow more time for rambling acceptance speeches ?

Needless to say, I have not be a fan of these displays of decadence for quite some time.
