 If Teenage Dream was nominated last year, ANYONE can be nominated. 
I wouldn't be surprised anymore if Justin Bieber got one tbh.

 Exactly. I used to think the Grammy's heavy weighed critics' reviews when making their nominations, so nominating an album with a Metacritic score of 52 sort of obliterated that theory.

 I feel like 'Loud' could easily get a surprise AOTY nom. Instead of BTW hopefully.

 What makes TD so unworthy? It isn't like it won. In any case, JB has already had a nomination. You make it like TD doesn't present good vocals with songs on the album. In any case, I would't post off-topic again. 
I'm so excited to see who gets nominated! I hope Rihanna and Katy get a few.

 Opinions can't be lies, just move on if you don't like it.

 Prepare yourself to be disappointed then.
 
That's not happening especially when Gaga is opening and closing the nominations show.

 Your fellow Katy Kat said it as a Matter of fact not a matter of opinion.  
If you don't like what I have to type then you may choose to skip over them or not reply to them as well.
 
Edit: In my opinion, the sky is red.

   Please no. 
 
The Grammy's have historically, I think, nominated pop albums in which the artist has had significant involvement in the songwriting, composing, and/or producing. I really can't see Loud being nominated. There are too many other viable contenders.

 I actually enjoy some Katy songs.   
But none of them are the typical "Grammy material" by any mean.
 
...Do i actually need to explain myself why TD shouldn't have been nominated for AOTY?

 He said it like most people around here say it? Your point? Whether it was portrayed as such, it should be taken as an opinion, because that is what it is.  
It gets a little annoying when I see someone trying to argue fact with opinion.  
Oh, and that can be proven wrong. Liking or not liking something can't, you tried though.

 I still don't understand how an album with a MetaCritic score of 52 got nominated for AOTY.    It makes me question the Grammys a bit, I'm not gonna lie. If Loud got nominated for AOTY I'd have the same reaction, cause even if I like it I know it's not "Grammy AOTY" material.

 Why don't you all wonder how the hell The E.N.D. got nominated?    Now that was unworthy.

 None of them? Firework, what about NLM's? Both show great vocal ability, not to mention the people who decide have much more knowledge than we do on the subject. We should respect it and move on.  
No, because that would be off-topic. But it is useless to me otherwise because knowledgeable and experienced people felt it justified, I trust there opinion more than yours.  
I'm excited to see what all the pop girls wear too.

Why are you sure Gaga is Not getting In. Born This Way has a much better chance than 4.

 I love TD, but anyone who thinks it's Grammy material is crazy. It's perfect for pop radio and scoring #1s, but it's not an album that deserves any sort of acclaimed award.

 The Grammys are typically about talent. The songs may show "vocal ability" on the CD, but live, well, Katy falls flat.

I'm not here for how  MOST people around here say it. I'm not  MOST people so what is your point? The way your fellow stan claimed that it IS the best album of the year was incorrect, and I corrected it.

 No, 4 is critically acclaimed, and being hailed as Bey's best album since DIL. 
 
Born This Way, while being acclaimed, doesn't nearly have the same level of love as 4 as been getting

 On some performances yes, but on most, no. So please, don't speak if you don't know.
