Taylor Swift First Female Act in GRAMMY History To Win Album of the Year Three Times

Published: Sunday 14th Mar 2021 by Rashad

In 2016, Taylor Swift made GRAMMY history when she scored her second Album of the Year win – that time for her blockbuster 2014 LP, ‘1989.’

Joining an elite group of acts who have won the night’s most prestigious honor more than once over their respective careers, Swift became the first female artist to win the gold more than once as a lead performer (following career wins from Norah Jones, Lauryn Hill, and Alison Krauss who had previously won multiple times as performers, producers, and/or songwriters).

Fast forward to 2021, Swift can now boast sole ownership of the most Album of the Year wins among female acts as the main credited performer, songwriter, and producer as she’s won the golden gramophone again!

 

Nominated for her hotly-selling 2020 album, ‘Folklore,’ Taylor topped Jhene Aiko, Black Pumas, Coldplay, Jacob Collier, Haim, Dua Lipa, and Post Malone in the race to AOTY gold.

As a result she’s joined an exclusive club of artists who have won that trophy as the main credited act three or more times over their careers.  To date, only Frank Sinatra and Stevie Wonder can boast as many wins in the category – each with 3.

    • Susan March 14, 2021

      But Dua won best pop vocal ALBUM. What did Camila win at the Grammys?? Oh right, her sophomore album was a flop and received no awards

      • Jake March 14, 2021

        Susan Exactly Congratulations to Dua Lipa she WON Best Pop Vocal Album her third Grammy. Future Nostalgia is Critically Acclaimed and sold over 1 million copies in the U.S.

      • Clarks0o0ñ March 14, 2021

        Billboard 200: #6(+2) @DUALIPA, Future Nostalgia 29,500 (997,000 units since release). *peak: #4*

        They album has sold 1 million copies

        Future nostalgia is still Gold certified
        😂😂

        A whole Grammy winning album, finding it hard to sell 1 million copies, especially during the streaming era
        Embarrassing 🤭

      • Susan March 14, 2021

        @jake ignore clarkson. He was left in a gas chamber. He thinks he’s a squirrel, thinks Camila is something special, and he doesn’t have any concept of reality. Just pray for him and pray that camilas 27 exorcisms go well.

      • Jake March 14, 2021

        He is so bothered by Dua lipa it’s insane the RIAA will be updating that the album sold 1 million copies get your facts correct

  2. Clarks0o0ñ March 14, 2021

    Album of the year, something beyonce doesn’t have

    • Susan March 14, 2021

      A GRAMMY is something Camila doesn’t have. Beyoncé has 27. The only thing you and ya momma have is 27 cents

      • Clarks0o0ñ March 14, 2021

        A Grammy nomination is something normani doesnt have

        An album is something normani doesnt have

        A second solo song is something normani doesnt have

        Normani has never attended the Grammys. Lol . Even Instagram th0ts like blac Chyna and amber rose and kim Kardashian have all attended the Grammys. Lol

      • Susan March 14, 2021

        Who cares about Normani? We’re talking about Camila. Those names aren’t synonymous. You know Camila doesn’t have the stats to compete with the main pop girls, so that’s why you constantly bring up someone who doesn’t even have an album. Make it make sense you boiled egg shaped b****

      • Susan March 14, 2021

        Clarkson! You’ve been dragged up and down this site! Camila won NO awards for that album! Camila had multiple songs from that album that didn’t chart. Meanwhile Duas sophomore album is critically acclaimed and won a Grammy. This is Dua’s THIRD Grammy! Meanwhile Camila is doing exorcisms to stop being racist so her label will give her a third album. Go change your bed sheets you nasty b****

      • Clarks0o0ñ March 14, 2021

        Oh now u dont care about normani?
        😂😂
        Not u denying ur faves

        Onlyfacts, u can change ur user name all u like but I will still slay u.
        I will still drag u buy your cheap second hand weave.

        😂😂

        Romance outpeaked all dua lipa’s albums.
        Camila has 2 number one songs
        A number one album
        A diamond certified single
        These are real achievements, not some stupid award that can be bought with money.

        Dua doesn’t have any of this achievements.
        Grammys are literally bought by labels.
        Dua is a product of good marketing and aggressive payola.
        That’s why she sold 18k pure sales first week

        Camila has never and will never sell 18k pure sales first week, 💅😌

      • Gag Order March 15, 2021

        Clarkson saying all this as if it matters! Lol your comment on this blog that Dua will never see nor Camila nor Normani..fact remains Dua won a Grammy last night.,you can’t change that. You’re literally mad at something you can’t control. Get help

  3. 🍭marilyn monh-O-E🍭(💫Perfectly Splendid✨) March 14, 2021

    Should’ve won the coma of the year💅🏿 The album is Zzzzzzzzzzzzz

  4. Susan March 14, 2021

    🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄 meanwhile Mariah only has 2 Grammys. Make it make sense

    • Taustin13 March 14, 2021

      *5 Grammys

  5. Jake March 14, 2021

    Lol not surprised by this but how did she lose Pop Vocal Album?

    • Susan March 14, 2021

      Did you listen to folklore? There were no vocals. Only whispering. Dua won and deserved ☺️

      • Jake March 14, 2021

        Dua was amazing on Future Nostalgia Dua Lipa deserved but I’m so happy she WON Best Pop Vocal Album

      • Jake March 14, 2021

        I agree she WON and deserved but how did she WIN Album of the Year but lost every other Category that makes no sense. Everything I wanted is the Record of the Year? WhT I’m shocked by that upset.

  6. 1988 March 14, 2021

    Congratulations Taylor, you looked gorgeous accepting the award. ❤️

  7. fufu March 14, 2021

    Priviledge Swift.

    But then her fans go hard for her so she deserves it I guess.

  8. TRANS RACIAL QUEEN March 15, 2021

    Only female in history she’s a true artist and legend.

  9. TRANS RACIAL QUEEN March 15, 2021
