Trent Reznor has finally gotten his apology from the people of Grammys 2014. Grammy executive producer Ken Ehrlich has now responded to Reznor, after the latter felt he got cut off during his performance at the awards show along with his fellow rocker friends.

Ehrlich gave The Hollywood Reporter a bit of an explanation about what happened, which was essentially an apology of sorts. He said, "I'm sorry he was upset. I was really thrilled that we were finally getting him on the Grammys. The final jam started with Arcade Fire a few years ago, and LL Cool J last year. I want to end on a high, an up note. I did tell them we'd take it as long as we could. The number was about five, six minutes long, and we got to within a minute twenty of the end. We got as close as we could possibly get."

The Nine Inch Nails singer certainly didn't mince words when the Grammys cut him and his other superstar friends off during their finale performance. He spouted off some strong language on Twitter after the awards show, clearly offended by what happened. "Music's biggest night... to be disrespected. A heartfelt FUCK YOU guys," he tweeted.

Reznor performed with a rock super-group at the 2014 Grammy Awards. He was with Dave Grohl (of Nirvana and Foo Fighters), Lindsay Buckingham (of Fleetwood Mac), and Josh Homme with his band, Queens of the Stone Age. They gave the show an electric finale, performing "Copy of A" by Nine Inch Nails and "My God is the Sun" by Queens of the Stone Age.

Around four minutes into the number however, the Grammys cut to an ad for Delta Airlines, with the band still playing in the background. Then the show rolled the credits while the rockstars played on. The cut caused Reznor to fire off an angry tweet after the show.
