Chrisette Michele: Five Months Later,
I STILL Haven’t Got My Grammy!

Good things come to those who wait. And wait. And wait – and are still waiting as we speak. So goes the tale of R&B diva Chrisette Michele, upon whom, on Feb. 8, the National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences bestowed Best Urban/Alternative Performance honors. Otherwise put, girl snagged a Grammy.

It was Chrisette’s first, for the track Be OK, after having been nominated two years ago in the Best Female R&B Vocal Performance, for If I Have My Way.But this week on Mutha Knows, she revealed a frustrastion with the honor.

“Where’s it at? Where you got that Grammy?” asked host Mutha. “I haven’t gotten it yet,” said Chrisette. “It’s on its way somewhere in a box from Fedex – on its way to my house? I don’t know.” “Wow! How long does it take?” said Mutha. “I have no idea! And when was it – February? We in July now. I ain’t gonna say nothin’ crazy, though,” promised Chrisette. But then she added: “No, I’m nice and, ahm, calm.”
