Who Are The Most Nominated Artists In Grammy History?

When the nominations for the 2023 Grammy Awards were announced on Tuesday morning, Beyoncé claimed yet another stake to music industry history. With her nine nominations, Beyoncé now has 88 career Grammy nominations (and still no Album Of The Year win, but I digress.) The nine new nominations for the 65th Grammy Awards puts her in a tie atop the all-time Grammy nominations list. So who else is among the most all-time?

Who Are The Most Nominated Artists In Grammy History?

Now that Beyoncé has 88 career Grammy nominations, she is officially tied with none other than her husband, Jay-Z, for the most all-time. The power couple just keeps getting stronger. Bey leapfrogged Paul McCartney, who is now third all-time with 81 nominations. Quincy Jones checks in at fourth with 80, while Kanye West has 75 career Grammy nominations. Here’s what the overall top 10 looks like:

1. Beyoncé — 88 nominations
1. Jay-Z — 88 nominations
3. Paul McCartney — 81 nominations
4. Quincy Jones — 80 nominations
5. Kanye West — 75 nominations
6. George Solti – 74 nominations
6. Stevie Wonder – 74 nominations
8. John Williams – 73 nominations
9. Henry Mancini – 72 nominations
10. Chick Corea – 71 nominations

The record for the most Grammy nominations in a single year belongs to both Michael Jackson (1984) and Babyface (1997) with 12, while Kendrick Lamar (2016) and Jon Batiste (2022) are right behind them at 11.

The most nominations ever without winning is 18 by classical music conductor Zubin Mehta. But Snoop Dogg is second with 17 and Björk has 16 nominations without ever winning a Grammy. Björk has a chance to claim her first award this year as her album Fossora is nominated for Best Alternative Music Album.

As for wins, Beyoncé is tied with Quincy Jones for second all time with 28 (opera conductor Georg Solti has the most with 31). So Queen Bey has a very good chance of becoming the most decorated Grammy artist of all-time at this year’s 65th Grammy Awards ceremony on Saturday, February 5th.

‘Dead To Me’ Showrunner Liz Feldman Got Real About The Already Chaotic Final Season Shoot And Christina Applegate’s MS Diagnosis

Tears flowed this week during Christina Applegate’s Hollywood Walk of Fame ceremony. The Dead To Me star was flanked by co-star Linda Cardellini and showrunner Liz Feldman, along with Married With Children co-stars David Faustino and Katey Sagal, the latter of whom happens to have a recurring Dead To Me role. To prepare for the Netflix show’s final season, Feldman sat down with The Hollywood Reporter to discuss that already topsy turvy Season 3 shoot, which not only danced around the pandemic but also Applegate’s multiple sclerosis diagnosis.

To that end, Feldman discussed how the show’s production took nearly half a year of downtime following Applegate’s news, which arose about halfway through shooting the third season. However, things were already quite chaotic and “completely out of order,” as the showrunner described:

“Well, my hands were tied because we had shot 50 percent of the season — and we shot it completely out of order. And when I say “completely out of order,” I mean we only shot with James Marsden for that first month. Hopefully, one of the great achievements of this season is the fact that you can’t tell … because there are certain episodes, I won’t say which, where 10 months have gone by. If you look closely at Luke Roessler, who’s fantastic and adorable as Henry, he very much grew up in the course of one episode.”

In other words, embrace the chaos. As Applegate previously revealed, her MS diagnosis led to a series of swift phone calls, and then “[I]t was about kind of learning — all of us learning — what I was going to be capable of doing.” After watching the entire third season, I can confirm that the entire cast and crew definitely pulled off a satisfying finale and a series of “great achievements.”

Dead To Me returns on November 17.

Relatable Queen Anya Taylor-Joy Boldly Claims That Cooking Is Pointless: ‘We Have Delivery, We Have Takeout’

There are definitely a lot of beautifully-shot cooking shows out there that teach you about cooking while also asking thought-provoking questions about life and various iterations of carbs. And for some people, that’s enough to inspire them to learn how to cook good, hearty meals. For other (cooler and smarter) people, cooking is simply pointless.

Take Anya Taylor-Joy, for example. She is the epitome of cool and chill, and she is disinterested in cooking, which means cooking is not cool anymore. “It’s just more that it doesn’t really interest me,” Taylor-Joy told Page Six while at the premiere of her new movie The Menu. She added, “I’m not going to lie to you. I feel like we have delivery, we have takeout.” She’s right! If somebody out there can make it better than you and bring it to your house, why would you take the time to make it yourself? Sure, it’s expensive and takes a long time, but that’s not interesting.

The Menu stars Taylor-Joy and Nicholas Hoult as a couple who go out to eat at an exclusive restaurant, where some things on the menu are definitely not intended to be consumed. Maybe that’s why she prefers to order out?

“I’m somebody who gets hanxious — hungry [and] anxious — so I just have to eat something,” she continued, “I need to eat regularly, so I need something to fill my stomach, I don’t care what it is.” Sometimes, you just need to order soup from Panera, because no matter how many times you try it will never be as good as the real thing.

Meanwhile, Hoult said he “knows how to follow a recipe.” Whatever that means.

Parents have kids record them dancing but capture their reactions instead and it’s pure joy

We all know parenting can be tough, but if there’s one thing that makes the roller coaster of emotions totally worth it, it’s seeing our children’s faces light up with joy.

Children’s smiles are infectious, and not in the scary pandemic kind of a way. There’s simply nothing better in this world than the face of a bright-eyed little human beaming with happiness, which is why a recent TikTok trend has people grinning from ear to ear themselves.

The premise is simple: The parent asks the kid to record them dancing to Taylor Swift‘s “Love Story” with the screen facing away from them (under the guise that the parent dancing needs to see themselves). So instead of recording the parent dancing, it’s actually recording the kid’s face watching them.

And oh, the love and joy on these kids’ faces is so, so sweet to witness. Watch:

@thechavezfamilyy

The end 😭😭 why am I bawling at this trend?! He’s SO CUTE #momsoftiktok #momtok #toddlersoftiktok

That face. OMG.

And check out the encouragement from this little fella:

@themarshhfamily

The end did it for me 🥹😭I birthed such a sweet, loving and encouraging little boy!! #momtok #toddlersoftiktok #taylorswiftchallenge #lovestorychallenge #boymom #toddlermom

Seriously, seeing close-ups of kids’ joy should be a daily thing.

@makingthemoffitts

#nationaladoptionmonth #adoptionawareness #thisisadoption #thisisfostercare #adoption #fostercare #makingthemoffitts #lovestorychallenge #taylorswift

Some dads have gotten in on the trend as well. Look at the way this little girl beams at her daddy.

@durbanofamily

Had to jump on the trend! Love this beautiful girl!

Of course, part of the beauty of having kids is you simply never know what they’re going to do. While some youngsters gaze lovingly at their parents while they dance, others have a … well … different reaction. Check out this girl’s facial expressions:

@haleigh.booth

It’s the side eye at the end for me 😆😂😂😂😂

Hilarious. And because this is the internet, naturally someone had to do the TikTok trend with their dog. Gotta admit, Ellie’s toothy grin is pretty darn cute as well.

@elliegoldenlife

This is why I don’t dance 😂

TikTok trends can sometimes be strange, annoying or problematic, but once in a while one comes along that brings people together in surprisingly delightful ways. Seeing people’s kids’ pure enjoyment watching their parents being silly is simply the best.

A Reporter For Showtime’s ‘The Circus’ Abruptly Aborted An Interview With ‘Multi-Shirted, Multi-Indicted’ Steve Bannon After Bannon Started Spewing His Usual BS

On a series titled The Circus: Inside the Greatest Political Show on Earth, one would think that the more wildly out-of-control an interview goes, the better. But former GOP political operative Tim Miller wasn’t having any of Steve Bannon’s bullsh*t when he guest-hosted what was supposed to be an interview with Donald Trump’s perpetually-in-need-of-a-shower former chief strategist on the long-running Showtime political docuseries.

As the clip above shows, Miller was looking for Bannon — or, as he described him, “the multi-shirted [and] multi-indicted Steve Bannon” — to do away with all the pro-Trump lies and just be honest about the 2020 election, especially as so many members of the Republican party seem to be turning their backs on the former president. But what he got was just more bullsh*t with a heaping spoonful of horses*t.

The topic of conversation was Arizona TV personality-turned-gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake, who — weeks before the election — made it clear that “concession” was not in her vocabulary. While we now know that Lake did lose to Democrat Katie Hobbs, at the time (and probably still) Bannon was touting Lake “as the future” of the Republican party despite the fact that, as a Trump-endorsed election denier, she was focusing the bulk of her energy on winning over the fringe parts of the GOP. But Bannon, who Miller was surprised to see at a Lake event in the first place, wasn’t buying it. “You don’t really believe this sh*t?,” he asked.

Bannon claimed to be “100 percent” serious and certain in his claim that the 2020 presidential election was stolen, and said that Lake believed it, too. At which point Miller reminded Bannon that “People stormed the Capitol over this sh*t, dude. These are lies!” and added that if Bannon himself hadn’t been perpetuating the Big Lie, the insurrection would have never happened.

While Bannon continued to paint himself as a believer, Miller — who wrote a great, recently published book on the MAGA movement — finally just shut the whole thing down. “You don’t believe this sh*t, I’m not doing this anymore,” Miller told Bannon before just calmly extricating himself from, well, the circus.

Summer Walker Fans Are Furious And ‘Over It’ After She Was Snubbed From The 2023 Grammys

It seems Summer Walker and her fans are upset after getting snubbed at the 2023 Grammys for her hit album, 2021’s Still Over It, and rightly so.

This would be the second time in a row that things singer has yet to receive a nomination from the Recording Academy despite having one of the most talked-about projects of the year.

Walker’s album was the first album to reach No.1 by a female R&B singer in over five years and also broke the record for the most-streamed album ever by a female R&B artist, surpassing a mark previously held by Beyonce’s 2016 album, Lemonade.

Many fans share the same sentiments as the Kentucky singer regarding the Recording Academy’s decision.

“The math is literally not mathing…” Walker said in a recent Instagram story post. “At least the streets fuq with me.”

One fan pointed out how Walker had one of the biggest R&B albums that year, despite not being nominated.

“she literally had the biggest r&b album that year and even broke a Beyoncé record,” one person tweeted. “how was she not nominated??”

One person hilariously suggested that may Walker had pissed someone on the nomination board off, and that’s why she keeps getting snubbed, even after putting out consistently solid projects.

“now who did summer walker piss off at the grammys behind the scene omg,” they wrote.

To be eligible for nominations for this year’s Grammys, an artist’s work must have been released between October 1, 2021, and September 30, 2022. Walker’s album, Still Over It, which was released last November, more than made the cutoff date, but the “No Love” singer can’t catch a break.

Welp, there’s always next year.

Who Are The First-Time Nominees For The 2023 Grammys?

This year’s Grammy Award nomination ceremony was nothing short of culture-shifting. Although the 65th annual ceremony isn’t set to happen until February of next year, many artists are already making history. Earning nine nominations during today’s broadcast, Beyoncé has become the most nominated female in the ceremony’s history. With six nominations, Kendrick Lamar leads the pack of most-nominated hip-hop act. After receiving three nominations, Bad Bunny becomes the most-nominated Latin artist.

However, they aren’t the only artists making Grammy history: A few acts earned their first nominations from the Recording Academy today.

As her major label debut EP, Anyways, Life’s Great, continues to perform well, “F.N.F. (Let’s Go)” just earned GloRilla her first nomination for Best Rap Performance, while Latto’s “Big Energy (Live)” earned her first nomination for Best Melodic Rap Performance. Latto went on to earn another nomination for Best New Artist, where she will face some heavy hitters, including Tobe Nwigwe and Anitta (who are also first-time nominees).

Rounding out the list of first-time nominees are Kim Petras and Gayle. Petras’ song “Unholy” with Sam Smith will compete for Best Pop Duo/Group Performance as Gayle’s viral track, “ABCDEFU,” is in a much tougher battle for Song Of The Year.

Although pop star Harry Styles is no stranger to the Grammys (with a win for Best Pop Solo Performance for the hit single “Watermelon Sugar”), Harry’s House earned Styles his first nomination for Album Of The Year as a solo act.

RM, J-Hope, and Suga of BTS earned their first nominations as songwriters in the Album Of The Year category.

Another notable first-time nominee is actress, producer, and author Viola Davis. The narration of her memoir, Finding Me, earned The Woman King star a nomination for Best Audiobook, Narration, And Storytelling Recording. Should Davis win, she will enter the esteemed EGOT club with an Emmy, Oscar, and Tony win already under her belt.

Best of luck to all of this year’s nominees, and a special congratulations to all of this year’s first-time nominees.

Oh Good, Trump Is Reportedly Sharing QAnon Memes About A Demon God Ruling The World Now

Despite the growing wishes of the Republican Party (and Rupert Murdoch) following the disastrous midterm election results, Donald Trump is reportedly still planning to announce his 2024 presidential run on Tuesday. However, while the former president may not have the full backing of the GOP, he remains the candidate of choice for unhinged nutjobs and has taken to sharing their weirdo memes on Truth Social.

According to The Daily Beast, Trump shared a now-deleted post from user “God_Bless_Trump” that was jam-packed with wild QAnon claims of demonic gods and child sacrifice. While any normal candidate would steer clear of accusing their opponents of being imbued with satanic power, Trump is reportedly leaning into the batshit caterwauling of his MAGA base:

One side of the picture showed Trump’s face above the text “We Love You, President Trump! God Bless You!” The other side had a rambling, conspiracy-flecked screed about Trump’s motivations for running for the most powerful elected office in the world. Despite the fact that he “has it all,” the post said, “perhaps he could not stomach the thought of mass murders occurring to satisfy Moloch,” referring to an ancient god of child sacrifice. “Perhaps he could not stomach the thought of children being kidnapped, drugged, and raped while leaders/law enforcement of the world turn a blind eye.”

Hours after essentially endorsing a post that paints him as the virtuous slayer of the demon Moloch, Trump shared a more subdued message about his presumed 2024 announcement.

“Hopefully TODAY will turn out to be one of the most important days in the history of our Country!” Trump truthed or whatever the heck you call posts on his looney bin social media site where people think Democrats eat babies.
