Wow, you hear that? It’s the sweet, sweet music of dreams coming true. The 2020 Grammy nominations are here! While the actual awards are super sad for the losers, everyone’s a winner at the nominations. Well, everyone except those on the west coast who woke up at five in the morning to watch the live broadcast. This year’s host, Alicia Keys, announced select nominations via live stream Wednesday morning, with help from the CBS This Morning crew, Gayle King, and Bebe Rexha. Lizzo and Billie Eilish crush the competition, with eight and seven nominations each. Lil Nas X scored nominations in tough categories including Album of the Year for his debut, 7. It all shakes out at the 2020 Grammy Awards, airing on January 26 at 8 p.m.
