Grammy Awards ceremony – which took place over the weekend – Red Hot Chili Peppers bassist Flea has shared an anecdote about once misplacing his own, only to find that his daughter had repurposed it as a gardening tool.Flea won his first Grammy in 1993, taking home the gong for Best Hard Rock Performance for the Chili Peppers’ smash-hit single ‘Give It Away’.
His first child, daughter Clara Balzary, was five years old at the time, and evidently took more of an interest in his accolades than he did; in a new interview with LA radio station KROQ, Flea joked that he while he was “grateful to win” his Grammy, it ultimately went on to become a plaything for Clara.“Grammys are awesome,” he said, “but after we won our first Grammy, like three years later, my mom said, ‘Michael, where’s your Grammy?’, and I was like, ‘I don’t know, mom, I put it somewhere.’“Months after that, my gardener came out of the backyard, in the garden, and you know how the Grammy looks like an old record player with the horn on it?
My daughter had unscrewed it and was using it as a shovel for the garden. It had been out there in the dirt for the whole winter.
