The 64th Grammy Awards held today witnessed a moment referring to the Oscar Awards held in the past days. Comedian Nate Bargatze, one of the presenters of the award ceremony, made his debut on the stage ‘with a precaution to be taken’ after the slap scandal at the Oscar Awards.
Said LeVar Burton, one of this year’s Grammy hosts, made a reference to the events while inviting comedian Nate Bargatze to the stage to give the awards. Burton told Bargatze, “Now I want to warn you that our next host is a comedian, you know. So I urge everyone to stay in their seats and keep their hands to themselves.” he called. It got even funnier with the comedian’s debut.
