you came up with some interesting logic which i doubt pans out if you would look at performers' ages as the show progressed (which i really don't care to do). but let's look at just the opening and closing songs/acts:
  • opening act Beyonce and Jay Z - Beyonce 32, Jay Z 44 - not exactly Lorde's 17 .
  • closing act QOTSA - Josh Homme 40.

and then of course there's this - the sheer numbers of viewership :

The ratings for the Grammys didn't significantly decrease throughout the night. The first hour was not the highest rated. The second hour was. From 8-9 the rating was 29.3 million and then it went to 30.74 and then it went back to 29.03 for the last hour from 10-11, BUT for the target audience, the rating was actually HIGHER for the last hour than it was in the first hour. It was 9.5 for that demographic in the first hour and 10.00 in the last hour. Again, middle hour was higher. But the difference between the last hour and the middle hour was so negligible
