Lil Wayne, Coldplay and this year’s Grammy class will hit L.A.’s Staples Center on Sunday in hopes of trading in their nominations for some hardware. Sure, the stakes are high for them, but what’s in it for us? Let’s face it — an award show just isn’t the same unless there’s something riding on it. Not money, mind you (that would be wrong… very very wrong). Instead, we prefer to play for bragging rights.
So as the Grammy Awards draw near, we’re hunched over our ballots, each of us marking the predictions that we are sure will lead us to victory in the RS office Grammy pool. But this time, we thought we’d share. We’re posting our Grammy pool ballot here, complete with picks from our resident expert, Austin Scaggs. We focused on the top rock, pop, R&B and rap categories (sorry country fans). As you can see Austin’s calling a big night for Robert Plant and Alison Krauss, two wins for Kings of Leon and a major coming out party for Duffy. Other experts and artists have already made their Grammy predictions, but what about you? How many of his eight nominations can Lil Wayne really cash in? Will the night bring a gold rush for Coldplay? And more importantly, do you think you can beat Austin? (Grab your ballot here!)
Print out your ballot, make your picks and see if you can beat our man on the ground (or if you really want to put yourself out there, post your picks in the comments section). Check in all weekend long for our reports from inside all of this year’s Grammy events, and don’t miss our other essential Grammy coverage on our Grammy hub.
