The Grammy nominations were announced last night, and among those listed were crap, crap and who fucking cares. I’m only even telling you this as an excuse to post pictures of Katy Perry’s boobs, because she was there at the announcement party in a ridiculously low-cut tight dress, but if you’re some kind of homo who wants actual details, feel free to keep reading:

Beyonce had the most Grammy nominations, including ones for album of the year for I Am Sasha Fierce, and song of the year for Single Ladies (Put a Ring On It).

Taylor Swift, the year’s best-selling artist outside of the late Michael Jackson, was nominated for eight including album, song and record of the year.

And Lady Gaga had five nominations overall including best album for her debut CD, The Fame. The Black Eyed Peas were nominated for record of the year for their feel-good song, I Gotta Feeling, while the Kings of Leon were nominated for Use Somebody.

Blahbitty blahbitty boobs. Did you not see them up there? Perhaps if you took the sweaty man-cock out of your mouth and wiped the balls off your chin, you’d have a better view. Homo.

The 2009 Grammy Nominations were announced last night via a first-ever televised primetime concert starring Christina Aguilera, John Mayer and Mariah Carey. The show also marked the grand opening of the new Grammy Museum, which officially opens to the public this weekend. People Magazine says

The event was cohosted by Taylor Swift and LL Cool J. Jay-Z, Ne-Yo and Kanye West were other top Grammy nominees – each with six nods. Radiohead was nominated for five awards, as were Robert Plant and Alison Krauss.

Album of the year contenders included Coldplay (Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends); rapper Lil Wayne (Tha Carter III); Robert Plant & Alison Krauss (Raising Sand); R&B singer Ne-Yo (Year of the Gentleman); and British alt-rock heroes Radiohead (In Rainbows). Pop-rock trio the Jonas Brothers led the list of best new artist nominees, along with British soul singers Adele and Duffy.

CBS will broadcast the 51st Grammy Awards live from Los Angeles’s Staples Center on Feb. 8.

In what bizarre world is Radiohead pitted against the likes of L’il Wayne and Ne-Yo? That’s like comparing the proverbial apples and oranges. Critically acclaimed, actual-instrument-playing apples and spoken-word-over-tracks-they’ve-lifted-from-other-more-talented-apples’-songs oranges. It’s not even fair. Perhaps next year they can create a category for “best crotch grab” and “most convincing slouch-and-squat in front of a bunch of chicks in bikinis’ asses” category. That way, the rappers won’t feel left out, and an actual musician can win Album of the Year. See, everybody wins!

The complete list of categories and nominees after the jump.
