We're live-blogging the Grammys this evening and E!'s red carpet coverage is already starting with a bang. When Ryan Seacrest speaks to Flo-Rida about how he grew up with 7 sisters and has a profound respect for women - in the background they show Eric Benet - the sex addict who cheated on Halle Barry. ZING!

Mr. Seacrest has put on layers and layers of chapstick so he can firmly plant his lips on every celebrity's backside throughout the evening. He actually looks a bit starstruck when he talks to Ne-Yo, and asks his date if they kiss. Ne-Yo and his daaate, sittin in a tree, S-H-U-T U-P Ryan! Even Leona Lewis doesn't seem to be enjoying his conversation. Speaking of Leona - her dress gives her a bit of boob sausage, it's not a good look honey.

Estelle, who is up for two Grammy nominations, has got a futuristic dress going on and talks Crystal Lite sponsorships with Julianna Rancic. That's something I can get behind - Crystal Lite. It will certainly be my friend tomorrow when I'm hungover and trying to get through the day. Audrina Patridge, MTV's loveable space cadet from The Hills, looks like she's had some work done. Maybe she isn't wearing as much makeup as usual, but her eyes don't look like they're looking upwards constantly.

So far, the outfits have been a bit weird, which I think it better than the boring red carpet looks we saw for the Golden Globes. L.L. Cool J. is wearing a great suit with a trademark cap and might be one of the most gorgeous men to have graced this planet. Ladies do love Cool James.
