The Recording Academy is investigating whether to postpone next year’s Grammy Awards amid widespread claims of sexual misconduct and a toxic culture.
The “grammy nominations 2022 announcement” is a post that was published on the Grammys website. The article says that the Grammys could be postponed for months because of the rising Covid cases.

According to reports, the Grammys might be postponed for months due to an increase of Covid cases of the Omicron variety in Los Angeles.
On January 31, 2022, the annual event will be held in the Crypto.com arena, with a star-studded guest list in attendance to celebrate the greatest stars in music.
Jon Batiste gets an incredible 11 nominations, while Justin Bieber, Doja Cat, and H.E.R. each have eight nominations.
However, owing to the epidemic, organizers are trying to move the exhibition to March or April, according to sources.
According to Showbiz 411, event producers are considering alternate locations for the ceremony, including the Hollywood Bowl.
Artists are also apparently having difficulty committing to come and perform on the night.

So yet, no official announcement has been made about the Grammys.
The news follows the announcement that the Critics Choice Awards have been postponed, with a new date to be determined.
Bosses first said that the event would not be moved from its planned date of January 9, but afterwards reversed their mind.
They said in a statement released last week that they ‘together’ came to the ‘prudent and appropriate’ decision to postpone things.
‘After careful deliberation and open discussions with our partners at The CW and TBS, we have mutually decided that the logical and appropriate option at this time is to postpone the 27th Annual Critics Choice Awards, which were originally scheduled for January 9, 2022,’ the statement stated.

‘We are in close contact with LA County Health Officials, and we are now working hard to locate a new date during the forthcoming awards season to conduct our annual gala in person, with everyone’s safety and health as our first concern.’
‘As soon as we get further information, we will share it with our friends and colleagues in the entertainment sector.’
Other events and performances throughout the US, including several Broadway musicals and the Bafta Los Angeles Tea Party, have been forced to cancel owing to new breakouts.
The Grammys have been asked for comment by Metro.co.uk.
