Nominations for the 2025 Grammy Awards have been announced — and the list has Us more excited than ever for music’s biggest night. Beyoncé leads the field with a total of 11 nods for her album Cowboy Carter, which previously failed to get any recognition at the 2024 Country Music Association Awards. Already the most-awarded performer in Grammys history, Beyoncé is now the Recording Academy’s most-nominated artist, surpassing her husband, Jay-Z. The couple were previously tied for the title with 88 nods a piece. This year, Beyoncé is joined by a buzzy incoming class of female nominees, including Sabrina Carpenter and Chappell Roan, and will once again go head-to-head with Taylor Swift in multiple categories. The chart-toppers are each nominated for Album of the Year, Song of the Year and Record of the Year. Keep reading for more of Us Weekly’s hot stories:
