This year Grammy nominations surprised everyone with some notable snubs, where The Weeknd who has been an award winner of the pandemic season didn’t get a single nomination.
The 63rd Grammy Awards will take place Jan. 31 at the Staples Center in Los Angeles.
Beyonce leads the 2021 award nominations with a total of nine nominations, including Best Sing (“Black Parade”), Best Rap Performance (“Savage” remix), and Best Music Film (Black Is King).
Meanwhile, Kelly Clarkson has accused her estranged husband, Brandon Blackstock of defrauding her over the years as their divorce gets messier.
In September, her former management company, Starstruck Management Group, which is owned by her father-in-law Narvel Blackstock alleged that the singer owes them US$1.4 million (approx. $1.9 million) in unpaid commissions.
Now in papers obtained by Page Six this week, it’s been revealed Clarkson filed a countersuit back in October accusing Narvel and Brandon of fraud and “illegal services”.
