Well, there are three very expected wins. It kills me how close the second was though - we almost did it, Little Basil Brushes!

Please welcome to the thread: Lady Gaga & Ariana Grande! *Rain On Me plays* Ariana Grande: Yuh. Hey, PJ Grammys! The art of collaboration is not only crucial to the creative process, but also exhilarating for pop music fans. It’s why I’m so grateful to b have been included on Rain On Me last year with Gaga. Gaga: It was a a thrill to collaborate with Ariana. There’s nothing quite like two Italian women dancing through catharsis together. This year, the nominees for Best Pop Duo / Group Performance also dazzled. I think one of them may have even been on my remix album? I should probably listen to that… Anyway, here are the nominees: Aly & AJ - Symptom of Your Touch Charli XCX, Christine & the Queens, Caroline Polachek - New Shapes Doja Cat & SZA - Kiss Me More Pure Shores - Back on My Love Videoclub - SMS Ari and Gaga: *in unison* And the winner is: Spoiler Aly & AJ - Symptom of Your Touch Full results Aly & AJ - Symptom of Your Touch (7) Charli XCX, Christine & the Queens, Caroline Polachek - New Shapes (4) Doja Cat & SZA - Kiss Me More (2) Pure Shores - Back on My Love (1) Videoclub - SMS (3)
