From her 13 career nominations, Katy Perry has sadly never won a Grammy award. She is one of the artists, amongst Lana Del Rey and Nicki Minaj who are in my opinion beyond overdue for a Grammy Award. 

 

Let's rewind her career nominations and see which Grammys Katy should've actually won:

 

57th Annual Grammy Awards:

Best Pop Vocal Album: PRISM, lost to In the Lonely Hour by Sam Smith

 

Best Pop/Duo Group Performance: "Dark Horse" feat. Juicy J, lost to "Say Something" by A Great Big World & Christina Aguilera

- Song of the Year: "Roar", lost to "Royals" by Lorde

Best Comedy Album for Witness

AOTY 

Definitely Wide Awake but that's it.

"Prism" for Best Pop Vocal Album.

"Dark Horse" for Best Pop/Duo Group Performance.

 

 

Not a single one of her nominations. In each category that she lost, there were better material.

 

Closest is probably Wide Awake, but Set Fire To The Rain is better than Katy's career.

oh wow. literally every single one is better than her material 

She lost fair and square. Every nomination she had there better albums or songs. She just need to try harder to write better music.

The same amount she won!

Idc but she was robbed from winning Best Pop Duo with California Gurls. Like why tf did a random cover of Imagine by all those khias won instead 

None /endthread  

To me California Gurls shouldve won that grammy. I dont even know which song is "Imagine"… other than that unfortunately all the other grammies she lost were deserved. 

Dark Horse

PRISM deserves to win Best Pop Vocal Album

California Gurls and PRISM, maybe Wide Awake too since it lost to a re-recording.

Telephone was nominated the same year as California Gurls, so Katy is not even the runner-up there.

 

Best case would've been Dark Horse, but Say Something is exactly the type of duet the Grammy loves to reward. 
 

The rest she lost fair and square. She didn't deserve the win. 

When stans say she deserves a Grammy they must have not seen the nominations because she lost all of these fair and square. Her only shot was in the Pop Duo category, which I feel like has warmed up to pop stars much more over the years than in 2010-2011.

came here to say this lol

None. Maybe the Imagine song shouldn't have won but even then California Gurls isn't much of a classic Grammy song. 
 

 

Best Pop Vocal Performance for I Kissed A Girl & Best Collaboration for California Gurls should have been hers 

something for TOTGA and TD (song) for sure, doesn't matter who they're up against from that year
