I am reading a long piece about how Grammy Voting Works. Even though the voters of the Academy are not quite as obtuse and conservative as they used to be, you can still expect a few instances of very popular, very good musicians walking away empty handed on Sunday.
The article says that there is still a built in bias towards Major Label Artists. This will work in Shakira's favor. Her nationality will probably be a slight disadvantage.
If you are intensely interested in any genre of music tha is not in the American Mainstream, you can't expect to see your favorite artist on the live TV broadcast. However XM Satellite Radio is broadcasting all the awards that are not being televised.
Shakira only has one nomination: Grammy Award for Best Pop Collaboration With Vocals Pop for Hips Don't Lie Featuring Wyclef Jean
I want to apologize for any of the times that I may have mixed up Wyclef's first and last names, I am always thinking about Shakira's hips when I type his name.
