Kanye West Leads Grammy Nominations With 7 Nods

Posted on Wed Nov 30, 2011 09:00 PM PDT

230kwest110310_01_X17.jpgWednesday night's live "Grammy Nominations Concert" may have been dominated by Lady Gaga's opening and closing acts, but this year's noms were all about Kanye West and Adele!

The controversial rapper won seven noms, including Song of the Year and Best Rap Song for "All of the Lights", a collaboration with Rihanna, Kid Cudi and Fergie, and Rap Album of the Year for "My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy."

Meanwhile, bluesy British singer Adele, who is currently recovering from throat surgery, nabbed the most prestigious nominations of the year, including Album of the Year, for "21", Record of the Year, and Song of the Year, for her hit single "Rolling in the Deep". The singer also boasts the biggest album of 2011, with sales reaching an impressive 4.7 million.

Nicki Minaj nabbed the coveted Best New Artist nom, the Foo Fighters and Bruno Mars won six nominations apiece, and rapper Lil Wayne scored five.

Mumford & Sons and Rihanna each earned four nods, while Lady Gaga earned Song and Record of the Year honors for "Born This Way."

Katy Perry, who broke Michael Jackson's record this year with five #1 singles from her hit album, "Teenage Dream," scored the prestigious Record of the Year nod for "Firework".

Aside from Gaga's show-stopping performance of her new single, "Marry the Night," Rihanna, Sugarland and Ludacris also took to the stage, with LL Cool J hosting the hour-long special.

The 54th Annual Grammy Awards airs live on CBS Feb. 12, check out the full list of nominees right here!

i think the dancechoreography sucked 👎 and was off beat too👣 sometimes.
i have never liked gaga's music 🔊 or her outfits 👻, nor the music videos 🎥.. i dont like nicki minaj's outfits either❌, nor katey perry's❌. and they are almost like the same in clothing 👻 👻 👻 , so its even more boring 😒 than it already was with gaga's clothing 👻.

slow down 🍵 , its not that funny as u think, its more like going to the zoo 🐘, watching a freak 👽. like; its either fun or amusing, but more sad 😔, like; help that poor freak 👽,... no fun🚶, do u know what i mean❔

X17 Poll

What went wrong on The X Factor today with Britney Spears?

Britney definitely had another meltdown. This is proof she's not ready to step back into the spotlight!
I think Britney may have overreacted to a bad audition, but it will be entertaining to watch later!
I think Simon Cowell planned this all along. Brit probably even rehearsed it!
