Beyonce Snags Ten Nominations, while Taylor Swift is Close Behind Her

 beyonce

It's no surprise Beyonce was going to grab a few nominations but the Diva surprisingly received ten nods while 19 year old Taylor Swift received a total of eight. I don't believe anyone her age has ever received that many award nominations from the Grammys so clearly she will walk away with a few. Akon's artist Lady Gaga was also nominated for a total of five with “Best Album” nomination for her debut CD “The Fame”.

This has to be a huge day for her manager Troy Carter who has come a long way from the Ruff Ryder days. Troy was also responsible for guiding the successful career of rapper/actress Eve so we at HHE salute you Troy Carter…a job well done.

Since most of these diva's are nominated in the same category there's sure to be a few upsets...Let's just hope Kanye West don't act a fool when the winners are announced on January 31st in Los Angeles.
