I've decided I hate it here after all. Another bloody Aly & AJ win over Caroline (and the rest)? Good grief.
Videoclub - SMS being the French representative getting the most votes so far is very unexpected too! I celebrate it!
I almost voted Bunny Is A Rider but decided against it because it barely made it through the nomination process so I assumed it wouldn't have a chance.
Please welcome to the thread, Rina Sawayama! Rina: Damn, PJ Grammys! I can’t believe it - this year marks the first ceremony in like four years that I wasn’t in contention for Best New Artist. And yet, it feels like just yesterday when I took home the prize. Anyway, this year, the Academy has highlighted newcomers who bring fresh perspectives, voices, and styles. They are… Arlo Parks Baby Queen Celeste Griff Magdalena Bay Olivia Rodrigo Pink Pantheress Self Esteem Videoclub Yebba And the winner is: Spoiler Olivia Rodrigo Spoiler Full results Arlo Parks (2) Baby Queen (0) Celeste (3) Griff (1) Magdalena Bay (0) Olivia Rodrigo (5) Pink Pantheress (3) Self Esteem (4) Videoclub (2) Yebba (0)
Please welcome to the thread, Jessie Ware! Jessie: Hiya PJ Grammys! Putting together an album is a delicate and exhilarating process - I say this as I am finishing my upcoming body of work (*gays squeal in excitement from the audience*) - and this year’s selection of nominees for Album of the Year truly just get it.

Well the results were not ideal but at least we got the nominations right! Thank you @Sail On and @BubblegumBoy for hosting this, it was fun!
Thanks for a job beautifully done @Sail On and @BubblegumBoy !! So glad to have been given the chance to share more French faves at large, and though they didn't win - I am so glad to see they were appreciated with more than just myself voting for them <3
Aly & AJ are much more popular than I thought! I'm pleasantly surprised by how many votes Allison Ponthier got. I regret not voting for Magdalena Bay for Best New Artist now - zero votes is shameful!
Happier than ever with the results! though poor my vote for Baby Queen getting lost in the shuffle dd Thank you @Sail On & @BubblegumBoy for such fun time!
So... my votes had zero effect when it comes to all winners ddd Thank you for organizing this, @Sail On and @BubblegumBoy!
