No.

Let's not pretend that Grammy's have the same worth as an Olympic medal.

1 - The Olympics are only every 4 years, making the awards harder to get.
2 - There are more competing athletes likely to get a medal than there are for a single Grammy so your chances of getting a Grammy are higher.
3 - Grammy's are pretty easy to get.
4 - Grammy's can be paid for.

Oh of course you can buy them now, but not when your faves won them. That's more convenient for you in stan wars isn't it?

And they aren't international like the Olympics.

This. I don't get where everyone is taking this a different way and running with it. I also love how everyone is trying to undermine the Grammy award and what it means. They aren't bought. Some may appear undeserving but those on the academy with the opportunity to vote do and their votes are tallied and the results are what they are. They will remain the top award in the music industry. Wished and yearned for by those unable to win one.

Exactly. In fact at about any one given time, you've probably only got like 30-40 true competitors, while in the Olympics it's the best in the world. Not to mention all the time and effort they go through to get that gold.

DEATH at all the Beyoncé haters saying Grammys can be bought just because she has more than Grammys than your faves combined.

But Bey deserves every grammy she owns.

Umm no. Any award show can be bought. But in the Olympics the winner is always clear.

I guess you want to believe that. Does it makes you feel good?

[Evangeline]

Value wise,yeah.No matter what anyone says,Grammys are the most prestigeous awards in the music industry.Ask a musician/music artist what winning one is like,I'm pretty sure they feel as honoured as an athlete does while winning an olympic medal.

[Kworb]

No. An Olympic gold medal is something you win for being the best. A Grammy is something that is awarded to you by a bunch of snobs.

[UnusualBoy]

Not really, the Olympics are won by the best ones, while some grammys are won by not exactly the best ones but it can subjective.

[dannylex]

Besides, Grammys are like a popularity contest, like Miss Universe, how people can compare it with the Olympics is beyond me.

[vuelve88]

No. Winning the Olympic Gold medal is a sign that you are the best in the world at that particular sport.

The Grammy Awards are not really open to many artists outside of the United States. It's generally confined to popular English-speaking countries, and even then there is still a heavy U.S. leaning.

[MrCookiepants]

No. Olympic gold medalists are the best in their area at that point in time. Can't say the same about most Shammy winners these days.

I mean compare Beyonce's Grammy wins to Michael Phelps' medals. Honestly, who deserved their awards and who only won because they're popular?

[Behava]

A gold medal has the be EARNED. People sit there and can LITERALLY see who is the better athlete and who can WIN. This is completely objective.

Grammys are based on the opinions of critics. These are completely subjective.
