Janis Ian won a spoken word Grammy last night for her autobiography. She beat out Michele Obama, Bill Clinton, Rachel Maddow and Ellen DeGeneres. After winning the award she joked with reporters backstage: “I keep thinking there must be a punchline here: An ex-president and the first lady and three lesbians walk into a bar…”
She was also the first musical performer on SNL, sang the first Bud Light commercial and the first Egg Mcmuffin commercial. More importantly though is this video arguably one of her best performances.
