That's pretty much all the girls that have the dominated the albums and/or singles charts in the last decade, right?

Ignoring girls who came from reality TV shows or ... Pink.

But there seem to be two big names missing.

Britney and Christina.

Will they ever achieve enough widespread support in the industry to get a nod in one of the BIG THREE?

(Don't come to me with those faded New Artist nod/wins. That was a whole century ago.)

I want answers! What has held them back?

I still think "Toxic" and/or "...Baby One More Time" deserved a Record of The Year nomination
If any of both was released today and had the same impact it would be nominated for everything possible.

Uh oh.

Britney has never been a Grammy favorite so we can't hold it against her.

Christina is just well..

She got 2 Nominations tonight. She was close with Moves Like Jagger.

This should be closed, tbh. Its flamebait.

But Christina could. Britney is a 99% no.

Wait, what Christina has no big 4 nominations other than her BNA win?!

What about Beautiful!?

The Grammys just don't seem to like Britney's music, though she's won Grammys in the past for minor awards.

Aguilera is victim of the Best New Artist curse, as predicted.

After tonight, anything is possible.

im done.

Bart you are just the slightest bit irate, aren't you?

Ummm the General Field hold the BIG 4 which includes the Best New Artist which X won.

Beautiful also got a nom for SOTY so this thread's null, and void.
