Taylor Swift Will Break A New Grammys Record If 'Evermore' Takes Home Album Of The Year!
At this year's Grammys, Taylor Swift's ninth disc, Evermore, is up for Album of the Year. The nomination is obviously quite the accomplishment in itself, but if the singer takes home the trophy, she'll hold the record for the artist with the most Album of the Year wins!
At the 2021 show, her album Folkore won the came category, cementing her as the only female to come out victorious in that category three times, as she previously won for Fearless and 1989.
There are only three other artists who hold that title: Frank Sinatra, Stevie Wonder and Paul Simon.
This year, she's up against Jon Batiste's We Are, Tony Bennett and Lady Gaga's Love For Sale, Justin Bieber's Justice (Triple Chucks Deluxe), Doja Cat's Planet Her (Deluxe), Lil Nas X's Montero, Billie Eilish's Happier Than Ever, Olivia Rodrigo's Sour, Kanye West's Donda and H.E.R.'s Back Of My Mind.
At the 2021 show, Swift also performed, though she's yet to announce whether or not she'll even be in attendance at this year's bash, which was originally supposed to take place on January 31 but was delayed due to the pandemic.
If she does come out to the Sunday soirée, the singer-songwriter will likely be flying solo, as she's yet to walk a red carpet alongside longtime love Joe Alwyn — though she did give him a shout-out in her victory speech last year.

"Joe is the first person that I play every single song that I write, and I had the best time writing songs with you in quarantine. I want to thank James, Inez and Betty and their parents [Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds] who are the second and third people that I play every new song that I write but mostly, we just want to thank the fans," she gushed. "You guys met us in this imaginary world that we created, and we can’t tell you how honored we are forever by this. Thank you so much, and thank you to the Recording Academy. We will never forget that you did this for us."
The 64th annual Grammys, which will be hosted by Trevor Noah, air at 8 p.m. ET on CBS.
