We don’t know about you, but we are already popping the champagne cork out of the bottle because our FAVORITE band ever, U2, reigned supreme at this year’s Grammy® Awards, held last night, Wednesday, February 8, 2006!

U2’s Irish rockers, aka: Bono, The Edge, Larry Mullen, Jr. and Adam Clayton swept the awards, and on the heels of their new album, “How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb” and blockbuster, sell out, worldwide tour, held court at the momentous ceremony, collaring 5 awards, winning in 5 categories!

Now then, while we sip our champagne, we want to post a link for all of you about what REALLY ROCKED last night, along with U2’s show stealing live performance, during the Grammys live television broadcast.

That would be the fashion!

Oh My! Divas and dashing gentlemen Rock Icons alike, put on their finest to strike that vogue pose on the catwalk.

Kelly Clarkson, Beyonce, Gwen Stefani, “Desperate Housewives” star, actress, Teri Hatcher, Joss Stone and even Indie rockers Death Cab For Cutie (sporting some tre’ chic suits!), and many more glittering stars from music, as well as film and TV, got all decked out, strutting their stuff with only THE elite names in designer gowns, tuxes, and jewelry, showing that glamour and style make rockers RULE!
