The 59th Annual Grammy Awards are looking glorious! From the spectacular array of dresses and tuxes to the incredible array of talent, it’s a star-studded event. The night is hosted by James Cordon, The Late Late Show host who is himself a musical talent.

The night is full of strong competition, with Beyoncé, Drake and Rihanna competing for the most nomination nods. Queen Bey earned a massive nine nominations, while Drake and Rihanna (sadly separately) are only slightly behind on eight nominations each. Check out the 84 awards bestowed on the best and brightest of the music industry.

Here are two fun facts about the Grammys to tide you through the nomination list; Elmo the puppet has won three Grammys and Kanye has won twenty-one Grammys (more than Barbara Streisand and The Beatles combined).
