Adele tries to balance all six of her Grammy Award trophies, producer/songwriter Ryan Tedder jumps for joy with his trophy, Justin Vernon (from Bon Iver) nibbles on one of his, and gospel singer Kirk Franklin flaunts his two Grammy Award trophies by placing both of them up to his ears, pretending to listen to them.

These are just some of the funny/random moments that happened backstage in the Press Room of the 2012 Grammy Awards, which were hosted Sunday night (Feb 12) in Los Angeles.

Other big winners of the night included Taylor Swift, Diana Ross, Tony Bennett, Lady Antebellum, and many others who weren’t pictured.

Producer Ryan Tedder has come out to clarify the rumors that circulated Beyonce‘s hit song “Halo.” Many blogs claimed that after Beyonce heard the song, which was originally written for Leona Lewis, she demanded to record it and eventually, the song went to her. Tedder is saying that this is not the case and that the song was originally penned for Beyonce.

“There was this huge scandal that originally ‘Halo’ was meant to go to Leona. That was never the case,” he told Alex and Lucy on Key 103′s In:Demand.

“I’m putting that rumor to bed right now. That song was written for Beyonce. What happened was that Beyonce waited long enough to record that song that I had no communication with her and didn’t know if she was going to do it or not.”

“I thought this would be a brilliant first single for Leona, which it would have. When you have a song as special as ‘Halo’, you don’t want anyone else to sit on it. So sometimes you have to pull the whole, ‘Well, I’m going to get someone else on it’, to prove a point.

“What i did was foolishly say to Leona’s camp, ‘I have it on hold for another A-list artist and I’m pretty sure they’ll take it, but if they don’t, I just want to know if you like it enough to consider it.’

‘I sent it to them and they flipped on it. They loved it and instantly said they wanted to do it. I was like, ‘Wait, wait, wait, no, it’s not free yet! It’s just in case.”

Well, there you have it. We guess that clears up one of the many allegations against Ms. Knowles.

It seems everyone is suffering from leaks these days. Another track has surfaced from Leona Lewis‘ upcoming album Echo. The track is titled “Lost Then Found” and was produced by Ryan Tedder.

“Lost Then Found” is very nice and naturally, Leona sounds amazing on it, but it seems like these typical ballad songs are the only thing she’s good at. It’s nothing special and if you’ve heard one Leona track, you’ve heard them all. On the bright side, she is trying out new styles by having another vocalist on the track.
