Post 25: Grammys Grumblings (1-27-14)

As many people know, the Grammys were last night so a lo of people are bound to be talking about it. I'm here to talk not about the Grammys, but something that people have been talking about: the fact that One Direction was not nominated for a Grammy.

I didn't really care (I think my mom was more upset than I was) but a lot of fans were upset about that. I looked at an article and it said that there's a weird eligibility period where albums are not eligible for this year's Grammys unless they were released between September 2012 and October 2013. So Midnight Memories would not be eligible because it was released in November 2013. What confuses me though, is Take Me Home was released in November 2012 so that would be eligible. Maybe it just wasn't good enough.

This fandom has been pissing me off a little bit lately. They get so angry about stupid things and they're giving our fandom a bad name. I feel like I'm pretty chill. I think people need to stop getting so hung up on stupid things like Grammy nominations. So one Direction wasn't nominated for a Grammy, so what? They were nominated for a bunch of other things. 

I honestly think that people are kind of blowing it out proportion. Yeah, it stinks that they we're nominated, but there are plenty of other years to win Grammys.
