Surprisingly, and in the lovely land of La La -- where long hair is almost as important as your driver's license -- short hair was the star at the 50th Annual Grammy Awards. Whether it was razor cuts or something softer, many of our favorite celebs came out with sassy, modern and SHORT hairstyles. Could the full out weave be dead like hip hop, rock and neo-soul?

Alright, Beyonce's hair is not short -- but this IS short for the Texan born beauty who has always done it BIG. Her hair for the 50th Grammys was finally MODERN with lots of blonde streaks over darker low lights.(Photo by Kevin Winter, Getty Images)

But wait a minute -- oh no, there's more! No Rihanna DIDN'T switch the hair up mid-show (same dress but different hair), giving them a second look for her short style. Trading in the precision wisps for a softer upsweep, Miss Ri beckons elegance when she picked up her award. (Photo by Robyn Beck, Getty Images)

Umbrella had a nice ring to it, and I liked her short bob - but I'm not seeing Rihanna as some " fashion plate " and I'm wondering how she is " on point " as people would put her. The girl is above average at most and her fashion choices are very edgy, but I don't see what's the big deal on her. She's a unique individual, standing out.. but is people making a big deal out of her because she's the anti-Beyonce? Please. No More Beyonce or Rihanna. Bring some more chicks to the front.

I agree with cynsashus. So what, she gets rid of her weave, you can see stretch marks on her arms & chest? Everybody on this Earth, has "FLAWS"! We are HUMAN! She is talented & beautiful. It shoudn't be about the outside of the person but what's inside of their "HEART"! She has a "PURE HEART" and her "MUSIC" speaks for itself!
That's what's wrong with people, so caught up in appearance. People need to check themselves!
Keep doing you Chrisette!

I wasn't feeling the platinum blond-black look on "Fantasia". She should have went with a light auburn or something in that line of color.

I wansn't feeling Keshya Cole's jet-black hair. She should have went with a lighter color. The all black thing just didn't work for her, she didn't stand out! She looked too "GOTH"! I thought her "TATTO" clashed with the whole ensemble. She should have at least, wore a shaw or something to cover it up? It wasn't classy to me. Hopefully next year, she will have a better look! I still like her music!

This comment is for STFU AlREADY #3. In the caption if you read above under Beyonce; it says, "Alright Beyonce's hair is not short--but this IS short for the TEXAN born beauty that has always done it BIG".
I do agree with you, they shouldn't have included her in this category.
