As per LA Times, the “I Knew You Were Trouble” hitmaker also earned double nominations in the album category for “1989,” both as an artist and as one of the producers of a collection that have sold more than five million copies since it was released last year.
Her hit “Blank Space” is nominated for both record of the year, which honors vocal performance, songwriting, and production, and again in the song category, which is solely a songwriter’s award.
Swift’s other nominations are for pop solo performance, pop duo or group performance, pop vocal album, and music video.
Next year’s Grammys has been criticized for the absence of pop sensation Madonna and her latest album “Rebel Heart” in the nominees list with some viewing this as a snub to the veteran singer.
The Grammy Awards will take place at the Grammys broadcast at Staples Center in Los Angeles on February 15. Winners will be determined by about 13,000 voting members of the Recording Academy.
For those wondering why Adele’s massive hit album “25” and her hit song “Hello” are not included in the nominations, her latest album was released on November 20, which is beyond the eligibility period of October 1, 2014 to September 30, 2015, for closing the nominations for next year’s awarding.
Adele’s album, which has sold more than four million copies in just two weeks, will be in line for its share of Grammy nominations next year.
