YOU SAY TOMATO...

Avril Lavigne committed a major gaffe at Tuesday's Grammy nominations announcement. While reading off the nominees for best male rock vocal performance, the 18-year-old Canadian crooner mispronounced David Bowie's name. Instead of calling the veteran rocker Bowie (like doughy), she referred to him as Bowie (like Howie). "I knew that was going to happen," Lavigne later told The Associated Press. "I knew I was going to pronounce someone's name wrong." Raphael Saadiq we could understand, but David Bowie?!?! For a list of the major nominees, click here.
