Where will it stop? On February 4, Taylor Swift received the Album of the Year award from Celine Dion at the 2024 Grammy Awards for “Midnights”. A real record for the American superstar, who won his fourth trophy in this category that evening, unheard of in the history of the ceremony. Will she make room on her shelf for a fifth? Unsurprisingly, Taylor Swift is once again the big favorite for the 2025 Grammy Awards, which will take place at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles on February 2. The singer competed six times, notably for the supreme award of Album of the Year with “The Tortured Poets Department”. She will face the phenomenon “Brat” by Charli xcx, “Short N' Sweet” by Sabrina Carpenter or even “Hit Me Hard And Soft” by Billie Eilish.

Beyoncé ultra favorite
Favorite of the Grammys (9 awards since 2020) and again in the running in seven categories, Billie Eilish will also be one of the big favorites with her hit “Birds of a Feather”, along with Chappell Roan, Shaboozey, Lady Gaga et Bruno Mars or Kendrick Lamar, who caused a sensation with “Not Like Us”, also named seven times like Post Malone and Charli xcx. But beware of Beyoncé, record holder of the ceremony (31 awards) and who could finally obtain her first Grammy for best album of the year with “Cowboy Carter”! The diva is in the lead since she is nominated 11 times this year in numerous genre categories such as rap, country, Americana or pop for the different pieces of her album. She also extends her record with a total of 99 nominations since her debut. Dizzy !
The French in the running
As for the revelations, voters will have to decide between Benson Boone, Teddy Swims, Sabrina Carpenter, Chappell Roan and Raye. We can also mention among the nominees Barbra Streisand, Jon Batiste, the Rolling Stones, Fontaines DC, Olivia Rodrigo, Justin Timberlake, Ariana Grande, Anitta but also… the Beatles, notably in the Recording of the Year category with “Now and Then”. And French artists? They are represented by Justice, in the running for Electro Recording (“Neverender”) and Electro Album of the Year with “Hyperdrama” against Charli xcx, Four Tet, Kaytranada and Zedd. As for Gojira, cocorico: the group is competing in the Best Metal Performance category for its flamboyant appearance at the Paris Olympics with MARINA Viotti and Victor Le Masne. Rock'n'roll!
