Beyoncé tops Grammy noms
Beyoncé is queen of the Grammys. Well, the coronation is set to take place on Feb. 2 yet, at the 2025 Grammy Awards which will take place at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles. But I think the final results will be a shoo-in for Bey.
After all, she has, would you believe 11 nominations including the top ones for the single Texas Hold ‘Em and her amazing epic of an album Cowboy Carter. And doubly amazing, after all that controversy about whether Beyoncé is country or not, she now has a nomination for Best Country Album and even one in the Americana category.
Despite the competition, Taylor, Kendrick Billie, etc., I think next year’s Grammys will be a Beyoncé show. Here now is the list of nominees.
