<![CDATA[Grammys 2021 Snubs and Surprises: BTS, The Weeknd and More Nomination Shockers

On Tuesday, Nov. 24, Lauren Daigle, Dua Lipa, Megan Thee Stallion and more stars revealed the nominations for the 2021 Grammy Awards scheduled to air Sunday, Jan. 31 at 8:00 p.m. on CBS.

While there were plenty of well-deserved nominations for artists like Taylor Swift and Beyoncé, some pop culture fans were both pleasantly surprised and down-right shocked at some of the announcements. After all, it's hard to believe The Weeknd, Selena Gomez and Halsey were all shut out of any love for their most recent projects.

At the same time, there are plenty of reasons to celebrate. BTS picked up their very first nomination while Noah Cyrus received special recognition in the always competitive Best New Artist category.

Plus, the day started off on the right note when Grammy organizers announced that The Daily Show anchor Trevor Noah will host this year's broadcast. That's a win for all fans.

So who got snubbed of any recognition and who (pleasantly) surprised fans with their nominations? Keep scrolling to get all the scoop on this morning's announcement.

The country singer's sophomore album What You See Is What You Get has been dominating country radio and awards shows. In fact, the disc won Album of the Year at both the CMA Awards and ACM Awards. But when it was time for Grammy nominations, Luke was completely shut out.
