The 2025 Grammys ceremony will honor the music industry's most high-achieving artists Feb. 2 at Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles. The show will air on CBS.

Following Beyoncé, the top nominees are: Charli XCX, Billie Eilish and Post Malone with seven nominations each, and Sabrina Carpenter, Chappell Roan and Taylor Swift, who are all up for six awards.

Carpenter, 25, and Roan, 26, are among the Best New Artist nominees, and the pop singers also received nominations in the Song of the Year, Album of the Year, and Record of the Year categories.

Carpenter and Roan will compete with Benson Boone, 22, Doechii, 26, Khruangbin, Raye, 27, Shaboozey, 29, and Teddy Swims, 32, for Best New Artist.
