Bob Dylan Gets Soy Bombed (1998)
Music

Despite everyone's best efforts to put together a perfect show, a lot of factors, such as human errors and people's reactions, could bring in nice surprises or turn the show disastrous.

AceShowbiz - The 1998 Grammy Awards perhaps deserves the title as one of the most eventful nights in the show's history. Besides Aretha Franklin's performance and Ol' Dirty Bastard's protest mentioned above, another unforgettable moment from the show that night was when a stage crasher tried to steal the spotlight from Bob Dylan.

During the Nobel Prize winner's performance of "Love Sick", background dancer Michael Portnoy went rogue, ripping off his shirt, revealing the words "Soy Bomb" scrawled across his bare chest as he began dancing and contorting his body right next to Dylan. To this day, his actual motive was never revealed, but Grammys reacted by denying him his $200 background dancer payment without taking a more severe action.
