While on tour in Argentina, Swift expressed her gratitude when the GRAMMY nominations were announced in November. Acknowledging her fans’ unwavering support, she celebrated the success of her album “Midnights,” which secured six GRAMMY nominations. Swift playfully showcased six fingers while seated at her moss-covered piano, expressing her joy and appreciation for the immense support.
SZA leads the pack with nine GRAMMY nominations, primarily for her 2022 album “SOS.” Other notable contenders in major categories include Boygenius, Miley Cyrus, Jon Batiste, and Lana Del Rey, vying for prestigious awards like Record of the Year, Album of the Year, and Song of the Year.
Taylor Swift, a 12-time GRAMMY winner and a 52-time nominee, is poised to compete in multiple categories, including Record of the Year, Album of the Year, Song of the Year, Best Pop Solo Performance, Best Pop Duo/Group Performance, and Best Pop Vocal Album.
The highly anticipated 2024 GRAMMY Awards will once again be hosted by comedian and former “The Daily Show” host Trevor Noah. The live broadcast from Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles will air on CBS and Paramount+, with Showtime users also having access. The event is scheduled for Sunday, Feb. 4, at 8 p.m. EST.
While fans may be disappointed about Swift’s absence from the performance lineup, her presence at the GRAMMYs and the anticipation surrounding her potential wins add an extra layer of excitement to the upcoming awards ceremony.
