Grammy Awards 2017: da poco sono stati annunciati i nomi di coloro che si contenderanno gli Oscar della Musica il prossimo 12 Febbraio 2017. Beyoncè ha fatto il pieno di nomination e, tra i canditati, ci sono anche tre gli italiani d’eccellenza: Andrea Bocelli, Laura Pausini ed Ennio Morricone. Alcuni artisti arriveranno avvantaggiati: le candidature mettono infatti Beyoncé al primo posto con 9 nomination, seguita da un terzetto con 8 nomination ciascuno composto da Drake, Rihanna e Kanye West. Grande assenza di nomination per Lady Gaga mentre Beyoncé resta l’artista con più candidature nella storia del premio americano, 62 nomination e 20 grammofoni d’oro già vinti. Qui l’elenco di tutte le categorie più fighe e, ovviamente, il nostro tifo va tutto per Laura Pausini…
