Welcome to Grammy Weekend! We'll be preparing for Music's Biggest Night by looking at the top categories and predicting who will win. (Hint: Adele.) We'll also be live-blogging the red carpet arrivals and pre-show awards starting at 4 p.m. Sunday here, as well as the big show starting at 8 p.m.
The nominees:
Adele, “21”
Foo Fighters, “Wasting Light”
Lady Gaga, “Born This Way”
Bruno Mars, “Doo-Wops & Hooligans”
Rihanna, “Loud”
WILL WIN: “21.” In a different year, Lady Gaga's "Born This Way" or Bruno Mars' "Doo-Wops & Hooligans" could have been shoo-ins to win. But Adele's extraordinary success makes her unstoppable. A chart-topping album that's loved by fans and critics? That's Grammy gold.
SHOULD WIN: “21”
