From Honolulu, Hawaii, he was just nominated for seven Grammys including Record of the Year (for "Nothin On You" with B.o.B.), Song of the Year (for co-writing "F You" by CeeLo Green) and Producer of the Year - Non Classical (as part of the trio known as The Smeezingtons). A YouTube link to an acoustic performance of his song "Grenade." I saw him in concert a few weeks ago, and I'm a really big fan. The cocaine arrest worries me though. I'd hate to see all of his talent get completely wasted because of drugs.

He is soooo cute. I have an embarrassing, schoolgirl crush on him. But he's got it all, in my opinion - good looks, lovely voice, plays instruments and writes gorgeous songs. I just want him to sing to me while I run my fingers through his hair.
I've never seen him interviewed, so I'm hoping he doesn't shatter these innocent daydreams by being a wanker. The coke bust isn't too worrying to me, seeing as how many (especially in the music industry) use the stuff recreationally. If it happens over and over or he's caught with something harder, that'd be different, but he may have just been partying hard for one night.

His looks don't do much for me, but he's got a great voice. Love that song with him and B.o.B.

Bumping this for my moment of Bruno fangirl admiration...
I loved his Grammy performance. He went from singing and playing the piano with B.o.B., to doing his own solo, to playing drums for Janelle. The dude is super talented.

I like his songs, but why does he set his songs in such a high key where it sounds like he's straining every note? Seriously, he always sounds like his voice is about to blow out completely.
I wasn't a fan of the Grenade performance. I prefer the original version. And again, the voice sounded so strained.
He is a cutie, though.

Too bad he is so hooked on cocaine.

He got a plea deal in his case, so he dodged at least one bullet.

I loved the rework of Grenade. I was getting very tired of the original version.

Really? I love the original version and was disappointed that they reworked it. He is a cutie tho.
