Taylor Swift, Beyonce, Billie Eilish, Mostly Females On the List for Grammy Nominations Coming in One Week

Share

The Grammy Awards will announce their nominees next Friday, November 8th at 11am. The delivering of this info will come on Grammy.com. The show will on CBS Sunday February 2nd.

Recording Academy CEO Harvey Mason jr. will be joined by Grammy winners Brandy Clark, Kirk Franklin, David Frost, Robert Gordon, Kylie Minogue, Victoria Monét, Gaby Moreno, Deanie Parker, Ben Platt, Mark Ronson, and Hayley Williams, along with Grammy-nominated comedian Jim Gaffigan and “CBS Mornings” host Gayle King.

Is Gaffigan this year’s host?

This upcoming Grammys will be a battle among female performers. Albums of the year will come from Taylor Swift, Beyonce, Lady Gaga, Billie Eilish, Chappell Roan, Gracie Abrams, Sabrina Carpenter, Charli XCX, and more. They’ll be joined by Eminem, Shaboozey, Teddy Swims, and Benson Boone. But remember a few years ago when the “women” were told to “step up.” They did!

In the rock category, I hope we’ll see the Rolling Stones and Green Day. The Stones “Hackney Diamonds” should be an Album of the Year but will probably be relegated to the rock category. Inevitably there will be snubs and complaints, but that’s the way it always is!

Will Beyonce get a lot of nods? Will she win? These will be big questions.

This is the 2nd to last Grammys on CBS. As they announced earlier this week, the show and all its specials moves to ABC in 2027.
