Grammy Nomination Snubs, Surprises and New Categories

THE RECORDING ACADEMY announced on November 15 the nominees for the 65th Grammy Awards, to be held on February 5, 2023, with stars like Beyoncé (leading the field with a total of nine nominations), Taylor Swift, Adele and Kendrick Lamar all netting nods in top categories.

The list also contained some surprises, particularly when it came to throwback icons. ABBA received multiple nominations, including record of the year for "Don't Shut Me Down." Mary J. Blige was also included in that category, with "Good Morning Gorgeous." But other examples stand out in this year's Grammy nods.

Biggest Surprises

1_Beyoncé and Bad Bunny Make History

While it's not really a surprise that the singer and her new Renaissance album turned up in several categories, it's still noteworthy that she made history. Beyoncé is not only the top nominee, she also increased her career nomination total to 88.

That ties her with her husband, Jay-Z, for the most Grammy nominations received by any artist.

Meanwhile, Bad Bunny earned the distinction of having the first Spanish-language release named in the Album of the Year category. The nomination goes to his record-breaking 2022 album, Un Verano Sin Ti.

BTS also made history with three nominations making them the most nominated K-pop act in Grammy history. This is the third consecutive year BTS has been nominated. They also garnered their first Album of the Year nomination due to their appearance as a featured artist on Coldplay's Music of the Spheres.

Paris Hilton & Nicole Richie

PARIS HILTON AND NICOLE RICHIE ARE READY TO BRING A LITTLE “SANASA” to the world with Peacock's Paris & Nicole: The Encore, their first project together since their reality show The Simple Life ended in 2007. What's “sanasa”? It's a song and phrase the longtime friends created as kids and popularized on The Simple Life. The show, a cultural phenomenon in the early days of reality TV, followed them over a series of blue-collar jobs. Now they're bringing it back as an opera. “I know this is just going to make people laugh, have fun, be nostalgic and just celebrate our friendship,” Hilton said. While Richie acknowledged “you can't do Simple Life again,” she said now “felt like the right time.” The famous pair also revisit some old jobs in Arkansas, like fast-food chain Sonic, where they now have drinks named for them. “I think that there is a part of our friend- ship that the show ended up showing that people connect to,” Richie said. As for this new special, Hilton is glad to do something positive for their fans. “It's been such a crazy past couple years, and I just feel like the world needs more joy.”
