Hoping PRISM and Dark Horse will snatch.

In The Lonely Hour got a higher Metacritic score than PRISM, but only by 1% (Sam got a 62 and Katy got a 61). But regardless, Eg White, Steven Fitzmaurice, and Fraser T. Smith all worked on Sam's album and they are all Grammy-winning producers. Max Martin and Dr. Luke's presence on PRISM isn't doing any favours for Katy. We know how much the Grammys love soulful pop songs, as we saw with Adele during the 21 era. And if they snub Sam it will probably go to Coldplay. Katy doesn't stand a chance in that category
Her only real shot is Best Duo/Group Performance, and it will take a miracle for her to win that over Say Something which was critically acclaimed and features Christina who has already won several Grammys. Although Christina hasn't won a Grammy since 2007 so its possible that they have lost faith in her and will therefore snub her. In that case, once again we still have to worry about Coldplay.
