Swift is up against Chappell Roan, Billie Eilish, Jacob Collier, Charli XCX, Sabrina Carpenter, Beyoncé and André 3000 for album of the year. Beyoncé is the leading contender of the night with 11 nominations, and many fans have predicted (and are perhaps praying) she takes home the big prize — though the singer has been nominated five times, she has never won.
“You didn’t think Beyoncé premiered eight Cowboy Carter songs live on Netflix, thumbing her nose at the Super Bowl with an NFL Christmas Gameday spectacle that literally had her singing from the rafters, because she’s a Texans fan, did you?” wrote The Hollywood Reporter‘s Lori Majewski in her Grammy predictions. “More likely: Nine months after dropping the album that made her the first Black woman to top Billboard’s country album chart, introduced the world to Shaboozey and rewrote “Jolene” as a warning shot for the titular adulteress, Bey knew the Recording Academy could use reminding — during voting season, ‘natch — that she doesn’t just make music, she makes history. They wouldn’t dare deny her again … would they?”
The 2025 Grammys will air live on Feb. 2 from the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles. Trevor Noah will host for the fifth consecutive time.
