Cee-Lo, Gwyneth Paltrow have a ball singing 'F- You'

Nothing says "F- You" like a singing Muppet.

Cee-Lo Green enlisted the help of a colorful puppet crew for his Grammy performance, not that he needed it. Cee-Lo totally commanded the performance seated at the piano in his groovy eye-catching outfit.

Oh, and who was that singing with a little bass in her voice? Gwyneth Paltrow! (Gleeks: How does this performance stack up with her rendition on "Glee"?)

Quite possibly one of the most fun, enjoyable sets of the night. What do you think?

    Loved it!! I thought it was just so funny seeing Cee-Lo in that muppet outfit. Prefer the unedited version, but of course for TV what can you do. Gwenith did a great job as well.

    Did anyone notice the back-up Muppet singers? Looking at them, the one on the left had her middle finger up. That was hilarious. Look at the performance clip!

    I've never heard the song until last night on the Grammy's and was really impressed! Great catchy song by Cee Lo and Gwyneth was fantastic! She is totally awesome in everything she does.

    I thought this was the very best part of the show. What a riot.

    If you have watched the F U video, it's about a young black dude getting the shaft or cold shoulder as he grows up.

    I wonder what was going through his head last night, sitting at a grand piano singing his hit song with beautiful Gwyneth as his singing partner. ( I got some SSSHHH!!! )

    You know what he was thinking.......now don't you........ Yep!! F U!!!

    I LOVED the performance! I thought Gwyneth did an excellent job for someone who's not a professional singer. It was fun and light-hearted. It helped make the Grammy's a show worth watching this year!

    LOVED the performance. It was fun, light & creative. Cee lo gets an A+, puppets were a nice touch and Gwenyth wasn't nearly as annoying as usual. She should let lose more often.

    I think she needs to stick to acting...she is MUCH better at that...

      She is fairly good at acting but very irritating as a singing and dancing performer. She is painful to watch in my opinion. It's like acting going really bad.
