Taylor Swift to Present at Grammy Awards
It didn’t seem possible that Taylor Swift would miss the 2025 Grammy Awards, and she won’t: Late Thursday, the Recording Academy announced that Swift will be a presented at the show, which takes place Sunday night, Feb. 2, at 8 p.m. ET / 5 p.m. PT on CBS.
The singer, whose “Tortured Poets Department” album is up for six trophies, has won 14 Grammy Awards in the past, including Album of the Year a record four times: including for her 2022 album, “Midnights.”
The 2025 Grammy nominations indeed reflect a female-forward year, as Beyoncé leads with 11 nominations for her “Cowboy Carter” album and its attendant singles. Beyonce and Swift are two of the five powerhouse women who are nominated in all three of the Grammys‘ top general categories this year — record, song and album of the year. Joining them in being nominated for all three of those major prizes are Billie Eilish, Chappell Roan and Sabrina Carpenter.
As previously announced, the 67th annual Grammy Awards telecast will have a “renewed sense of purpose: raising additional funds to support wildfire relief efforts and honoring the bravery and dedication of first responders who risk their lives to protect ours,” according to the announcement.
Since launching the Los Angeles Fire Relief Effort to Support Music Professionals last week, the Recording Academy and MusiCares have raised and pledged more than $2 million in emergency aid to music people affected by the wildfires.
