Grammy Acceptance Speeches

"I appreciate everything and I know you are really proud of me right now and I know you wouldn't want me to stop and you'd want me to be the No. 1 artist in the world. And Mama, all I'm gonna do is keep making you proud." - Kanye West, speaking about his late mother as he accepted the award for rap album.

"I just got an award given to me by a Beatle. Have you had that happen yet, Kanye? ... Just kidding." - Vince Gill, accepting the award for best country album from Ringo Starr.

"She's walking her walk. We all have a walk in life, we have hard and difficult times and going through that chaos often leads to clarity." - Chaka Khan on Amy Winehouse.

"Dad, I know I promised I'd give you my first Grammy, but we might have to fight for this one." - Rihanna accepting the award for rap/sung collaboration.

"As many of you know, I first started singing when Lincoln was president." - Cher, 61, as she introduced Beyonce and Tina Turner.

"Frank Sinatra looked good for 150, didn't he?" - Prince, after Sinatra appeared in archival footage in a duet with Alicia Keys.

"I think she is a sexy young lady. I have kids as old as her, but I did enjoy it. That did not deter me from noticing at all." - Morris Day on Rihanna, after his band, The Time, performed a medley with the young R&B star.

"It never gets old, believe me, it just never gets old." - Herbie Hancock, who has won 12 Grammys dating to 1983, accepting this year's award for contemporary jazz album for "River: The Joni Letters."
