Taylor Swift was only nominated for one award at the 61st annual Grammy Awards despite having one of the top-performing albums of the year with “Reputation” -- and her fans definitely noticed the snub.
Swift was nominated for best pop vocal album of the year, but lost the accolade to Ariana Grande who won her first Grammy for “Sweetener.” Swift, who has been nominated for 32 Grammys in the past, has previously taken 10 home. However, fans were quick to notice that “Reputation” was shut out of all the other major categories, effectively bringing Swift’s reign as a Grammy’s shoo-in to an end.
