Grammy Autobiography

Improved Essays
About a month ago, I won my first Grammy. I won three Grammys that night for Record of the Year, Album of the Year and Best R&B Album. The night was replete with adventure and you are about to read all about it!
I was at The Beverly Hills Hotel, with my sister, mother, grandmother and best friend. We heard a piercing and wrenching knock on the door, which turned out to be my professional stylist, Jea. In she walked with numerous fashion pieces from designers such as Christian Louboutin, Hubert de Givenchy, Louis Vuitton, Cristobal Balenciaga and more.

Moving on with the evening, the metal rock section of the program was going on causing the show to become a litany because metal rock is not my favorite genre. Once that was done, the R&B section came up. At this moment, Beyonce and I became zealous as we anticipated the results of the evening. All of a sudden, I heard “Tim for Album of the Year”.

After I won the first award, Beyonce, Chance the Rapper, Rihanna, Kevin Hart and many other celebrities went out to eat and spent the night at Beyonce’s house. I won two others but after the first one, nothing crazy happened. We found an arable spot in her backyard and each celebrity planted a different fruit tree in their name. I planted a cherry

    Commencing Unbound A lurid, fuchsia dress with generously powdered glitter and blaring, familiar music danced to by relatives you weren't even aware were relatives are trademarks of the traditional rite of passage into adulthood in my culture and one I never had the pleasure to experience due to my family's financial situation at that time. Still, my own stride into coming of age was too one with renowned garb, although much less garish. Familiar music playing in the background and only my immediate family sat close to the stage in awe to watch me. Graduating from my esteemed high school, Design and Architecture Senior High (DASH), was the omega to the alpha of my future. That experience both humbled me and triggered the tenacity in me to…

    As a child, my parents shaped me into their ideal image of a little girl. The formation of their ideals actually started long before I first opened my eyes in the hospital.

They had their first date at the Magic Kingdom, they spent all their days off on a Florida beach, and they experienced the technical magic that Disney is so well-known for.…

    Often, women walk down the beauty aisle of a department and grocery stores and see all types of merchandise for their hair, but not many know what the products are right for them.

She would give me the same answer every time, “This should only be performed by a professional if you do not want to ruin your hair.”…
