【グラミー賞大予想(パート1)】
難問。
第49回グラミー賞は来る2007年2月11日(日曜)西海岸時間で夕方5時(日本時間2月12日・月曜午前10時)から、スアンジェルスのコダックシアターで発表される。日本ではWOWOWが生継する。
者の恒例の予想、そのパート1。今日は主要4部門とR&B関係9部門の計13部門。それにしても、今年は難しい。例えば、ノラ・ジョーンズのようなわかりやすい決定打がない。しいて言えば、メアリーJブライジが大量にノミネートされているの が、昨年のマライアなどもあれ けノミネートされていて、2部門で終わった例を見ると、なんともわからない。た メアリーJの 合、R&B部門ではそこそこ 当な本命となるとは思われるが。また、ジェー ス・ブラントは日本人受けはしているの が、アメリカで果たしてどこまで審査員を「つかんでいるか」が皆目めない。
例年通り、本命で4割、対抗とあわせて7割の的を目指す。
108部門のノミネート完全リストは、次のグラミーのオフィシャルページにあります。
