| Macklemore and Ryan Lewis |
Jay-Z also dominates on the nominees list, he owns 9 nominations!!!! It would be suprising when newcomer Lorde wins, but she got four nominations for this years Grammys.
Pharrell Williams can be excited about the award show, because he is nominated in five categories not just as a performer, because he has a chance to win the golden gramophone for the producer of the year. Rihanna owns only two nominations, one with Stay and another with Unapologetic the album. Not a good position. Did not assembled the whole nominees list, but i reviewed the full list. There is some contradiction in the country category: Taylor Swift got two nominations but nothing for Carrie Underwood. ....shame on the judges... :P
Okay, let's continue with the performers!
In two categories nominated Sara Bareilles will hit the stage at the 54th annual Grammy Awards just like Daft Punk, Kendrick Lamar with Imagine Dragons, John Legend. The six categories nominated Macklemore and Ryan Lewis will attend the event, and also be on stage. Lorde, Madonna, Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr, Metallica, Kacey Musgraves, Nine Inch Nails with Queens of Stone Age&Dave Grohl&Lindsey Buckingham, Katy Perry. Pink and Nate Rues from Fun will also be on stage at the Grammys with Song of The Year aspirant single Just give me a reason. The organizers also added a few more names to the lineup: Taylor Swift, Keith Urban, Robin Thicke, Miranda Lambert, Billie Joe Armstrong, Gary Clark Jr., Hunter Hayes, Blake Shelton and more.
It will be a fun night! :)
