The Crypto will host the 66th Grammy Awards on Sunday.ANGELES -- There are many reasons to be enthusiastic about this Sunday's 66th Grammy Awards, which will be held at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles.

Expect a spotlight on its female nominees, as women outnumber males in the major categories.

Ben Winston, executive producer of the Grammy Awards, told The Associated Press, "That's the same throughout the show, really—it's dominated by women." "That's something we're truly happy about," Raj Kapoor, another EP, said. "It nearly never happens before."

For the fourth year in a row, comedian Trevor Noah will host the Grammy Awards; this year's performance could make history in addition to being a concert showcasing the biggest names in music.

At eight o'clock in the evening, the main programme will go live on CBS and Paramount+. Subscribers to Showtime and Paramount+ can watch both live and on demand. The event won't be available for streaming until the next day for Paramount+ Essential subscribers.At 6 p.m. Eastern, Laverne Cox and comedian Heather McMahan will headline E!'s "Live From E!: Countdown to the Grammys" programme, which will feature a blend of fashion coverage and celebrity interviews.
Additionally, a three-hour red carpet event with fashion and interview video will be streamed by the Associated Press. Starting at 4 p.m. Eastern, it will be live on YouTube, Twitter, and the AP website.
With nine nominations, SZA leads the field, closely followed by Victoria Monét and Phoebe Bridgers, both with seven. Taylor Swift, Olivia Rodrigo, Miley Cyrus, Billie Eilish, Brandy Clark, Batiste, and producer Jack Antonoff are among the six members of Bridgers' boygenius band.
Fans of "Barbie" have cause to rejoice. The movie will be noticeable during the Grammys, much like how it did at the box office: Eleven nominations were received for the soundtrack of the popular movie, with four of the five places in the visual media song category going to music from the album.
There are also a few chances to make history: Ever since "The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill" took home the 1999 album of the year award, a Black woman has not earned the title. Janelle Monae or SZA may make a difference this year.

Taylor Swift would break the record as the artist with the most awards ever if she wins album of the year, breaking the previous record of four. Miley Cyrus and Lana Del Rey might win their first Grammys.Hazel, Victoria Monét's 2-year-old daughter, would become the youngest Grammy winner if her song "Hollywood" wins best traditional R&B performance. If Karol G's album "Mañana Será Bonito" wins, she could become the first female musician to win in the history of the best música urbana category. With a third win in 2024, Jack Antonoff might tie Babyface for the record for the most consecutive wins in the producer of the year, non-classical category.
Many individuals! SZA, Joni Mitchell's first-ever Grammy performance, and 23-time nominee and five-time Grammy winner Billy Joel all on the list.In addition, Travis Scott, Olivia Rodrigo, Burna Boy, Dua Lipa, Luke Combs, Billie Eilish, and Burna Boy—all Grammy winners and current nominees—are on the roster.
