Swift was able to walk away with a nomination in the three major categories. Her album, 1989, took spots for Album of the Year, Record of the Year, and Song of the Year with “Blank Space.”

The Weeknd received seven nominations for his album Beauty Behind the Madness, including Album of the Year and Record of the Year for his major hit “Can’t Feel My Face.”

While the pros dominated the majority of the nominations this year, many newcomers including Tori Kelly, James Bay, and Sam Hunt walked away with several nominations.

Regardless of previous nominations, many stars were still humbled by the honor and were quick to take to social media to express their gratitude and excitement. Singer/songwriter Ed Sheeran was the first to reveal his reaction to his fans sharing “”I wasn’t expecting the Grammy noms, thank you,” reported EOnline. The singer walked away with three nominations this year for Song of the Year, Album of the Year and Best Pop Solo Performance.
