That Mean Girls scene where Cady Heron breaks her Spring Fling crown and shares the pieces with her classmates is classic. So classic that it seems every major award show references it in some way. With Adele going on and on about how Beyoncé deserved the Album of the Year Grammy more than her, I thought she was leaning toward sharing it with Queen B. She almost did—but not on purpose.
Shortly after finishing up what was the final acceptance speech of the night, Adele accidentally broke her Grammy statue in half. And she seemed to be totally amused by the situation, which is sooo Adele.
It would have been easy to give half to Bey and keep the other half for herself, but it seems The Recording Academy was waiting in the wings with a shiny replacement Grammy.
She could at least give the broken one to Beyoncé…
