Grammy Nominees Ariana Grande Miley Cyrus Taylor Swift

Update: Beyoncé just made Grammy history when she became the most-nominated female artist of all time with her 47th nod.

Usually, award show nominations are announced bright and early (8 a.m. EST, 5 a.m. PST), so the rest of us can say "Whoa, major snubs in the Best Actress category" and continue on with our day. This year, the Grammys are kicking that time-honored tradition to the curb. The music awards will be taking their sweet time rolling out the 57th set of nominees throughout the day. Check back here for the latest updates.

Among the categories announced this morning, Sam Smith, Pharrell, and Sia have already received multiple nominations. Here's who will be vying for those golden gramophones at the awards ceremony on February 8, 2015.
