Η Adele ελπίζουμε να είναι απολύτως καλά -μετά από την επέμβαση που έχει κάνει στις φωνητικές της χορδές- μέχρι τις 12 Φεβρουαρίου που θα γίνει το event και να εμφανιστεί live στο Nokia Theater στο Λος Άντζελες. Η ερμηνεύτρια του υποψηφίου για Τραγούδι της Χρονιάς ( Rolling in the Deep) είναι υποψήφια συνολικά για 6 βραβεία, το ίδιο και το συγκρότημα Foo Fighters (Για Album της Χρονιάς, Rock Album της Χρονιάς κτλ).

Ακολουθούν με 5 υποψηφιότητες ο rapper Lil Wayne, με 4 ο ερμηνευτής της indie-folk, Bon Iver και με 3 οι Lady Gaga και Taylor Swift. Aπ'ότι φαίνεται οι εκκεντρικές εμφανίσεις και τα πρωτοσέλιδα love stories δεν ήταν αρκετά για να χαρίσουν στις δύο κυρίες την πρωτιά στον αριθμό υποψηφιοτήτων.

Τα albums τους «Born This Way» και «Speak Now» αντίστοιχα, θα είναι αρκετά να τους χαρίσουν κάποιο βραβείο; Σε δύο μήνες θα ξέρουμε.
