Ariana's Grammy eligibility for major category in contention
Quote:
PUTTING THE “WAR” IN AWARDS: The two-day Grammy nomination meetings in Los Angeles concluded yesterday with feathers flying. One major point of contention involved Ariana Grande’s eligibility in a major category; the Alternative committee, meanwhile, once again elicited outrage by excluding a trailblazing artist. For a thorough handicapping of the key categories—not to mention a correction of Billboard’s multiple errors regarding which records are eligible—see our Grammy whisperer Paul Grein’s analysis of Album of the Year and Record/Song of the Year contenders.

its not for best new artist, by their rules shes "too big" for that award.
if she doesnt win anything, then the following year she can be nominated for best new artist
What kind of ******** is that? so Last year she coulndt be nominated because they needed to see if she would last more then a year, now that she has and exceeded she can be nominated??? Basically making that award a Joke
Ed Sheeran a year after he was nominated for Song of the year got a nomination for Best new artist. I don't see what's the big deal about Ariana being elegible this year.
