Should be these imo:

Best Pop Solo Performance
Million Reasons by Lady Gaga

It would be AMAZING for Kesha to win too, but Million reasons is such a moment in Gaga's discography imo <3 Ofc Ed Sheeran will snatch this lmao

Best Pop/Duo Group Performance
Feel It Still by Portugal, THe Man

The only song I really like here, bop *.* Stay is ok for what it is. Please dear lord just on't let f***ing Despacito win

Best Traditional Pop Album (no1curr ik)
Nobody But Me by Michael Buble

Idk any of these and don't care but Bub can have it x

Best Pop Vocal Album
Joanne by Lady Gaga

Easy one, I was a bit disappointed in Rainbow as a full product but again it would be amazing for Kesha to win and would feel such an important moment.

Best Country Solo Performance
Tin Man by Miranda Lambert

Body Like A Back Road is great but no contest here, Tin Man is one of the most emotive and heartfelt performances of her career easily.

Best Country Duo/Group Performance
Better Man by Little Big Town

Again no contest, only good song in the category

Best Country Song
Better Man by Little Big Town (written by Taylor Swift)

Hard one, but I think as a written song it has to be Better Man whereas Tin Man triumphs on Miranda's vocal performance and emotion imo. BLABR is great too though and written so well to incorporate R&B bits for a huge crossover appeal. Also a Grammy for Taylor kink.gif

Best Country Album
The Breaker by Little Big Town

Only one I've lisened to lmao, not their best. Wtf at Miranda getting snubbed (even if it is her weakest album)

CHRIS f***ING STAPLETON


Tbh I'd have given it to Tin Man over Better Man (flop Taylor stan) but I'd have been happy with either of those two or Body Like A Back Road for song, so ofc it's none of them and is instead the worst option. At least Better Man won group/duo and Feel It Still got the same for pop!

I'm not that mad really, but disappointed because it was such a strong category with the four female nominees and they still gave it to Ed AND he wasn't even there to accept the award drama.gif Lame.
