Will Lady GaGa Change Grammy Rules?
Seems to us like they should be changed!
Lady GaGa has sold over 1.5 million copies of her debut album The Fame, but is ineligible for the Best New Artist category at this year's Grammy Awards because of her nomination for Just Dance last year in the Best Dance Recording Category.
Last year, Jennifer Hudson shared a similar fate as she was snubbed from the Best New Artist category since she was previously nominated in the Outstanding Motion Picture Soundtrack Compilation category for Dreamgirls.
And now Grammy president Neil Portnow is addressing the controversy, stating:
"This particular issue in the Best New Artist category is on our radar and I would expect changes to address it in next year's voting."
Wow! Talk about causing mayjah changes in the industry!
The power of Gagaloo never ceases to amaze us!

The View!!!!!!!!
um… what power toolbox? they are not bendin ANY rules for her and nor should they. you are SO pitiful the way you kiss this hermies ass.
STFU FATBOY!!! THIS ISSUE IS NOT NEW AND I HIGHLY DOUBT IT WILL GET CHANGED OVERNITE. THIS CONTROVERSY FIRST STARTED WITH WHITNEY'S DEBUT ALBUM BACK IN 1985. ALTHO IT SOLD A BILLION COPIES AND BY ALL ACCOUNTS SHE SHOULD OF GOTTEN BEST NEW ARTIST AWARD, SHE WAS DISQUALIFIED BECAUSE SHE SANG BACKUP ON ANOTHER ARTIST'S ALBUM THE PREVIOUS YEAR. GAGA WAS NOMINATED FOR A GRAMMY AND THEREFORE SHOULD NOT QUALIFY FOR BEST NEW ARTIST THIS YEAR, PLAIN AND SIMPLE YOU DUMB FUCK!!!
Re: rraacchh –
What's wrong with Hermaphrodites?
They are people too.
You don't have to be prejudice.
Best New Artist is the Grammy of Death anyway. NOBODY wants to win the Grammy of Death! Just ask the Bay City Rollers!!!!!!!!
Re: Carrie Prejean Masturbates – Yeah and it's also funny how someone with the name "Carrie Prejean Masturbates" is calling me out. Lol what a joke.
So, it's not okay that CBS can show the clip of Madonna and Britney kissing, but blur out Adam Lambert?
But it is okay that the Grammy's can change rules because of Lady GaGa when they denied the same thing to Jennifer Hudson? HMMM?!
I love her cannot wait until January to see her at Radio City!
It's true - she failed her first year and now this year she is not a new entertainer anymore - JA JA JA! (jk I'm actually white)
hey why is my avatar not updating to my new avatar pic? I didn't select a palm tree against a blue sky. Please fix it for me. JA JA JA!
yeah….SO POWERFUL she LOST to GLORIANA as best new artist at the AMA's lmao!!
Lady Gaga is NOT NEW so therefore the rules are fair! They shouldn't be changed for her or Jennifer Hudson.
Somehow im starting to like the Ga Ga-Cock in my mouth–posts.
Either you are very clever or extremely Stupid but dont know it.
The tranny sux….I swear the whore sux…Get her balls out of your mouth and write some good shit…yeah I know you love to piss off your readers, but a few more posts on this he-chick is enough
Behold the power of Lady Bologna tits!
Love Gaga, but Perez, why would you put up the most unflattering picture of her EVER??
dont feel bad mario- GAGA'S A SURE THING FOR BEST MALE ARTIST!!!
She looks tired and lame to me. Nothing new about being a poser. It's people like her and Mario who were ugly kids and ridiculed finally realizing looking like a living clown throws people off focus.
P.S. I REALLY, REALLY HOPE SHE HAD SOME OLD 120 YEAR OLD WOMAN BE THE MODEL FOR THAT SAGGY BREASTED SHIRT THING SHES WEARING,BUT I HAVE A FEELING THAT OLD BAL O NEY T I TS PROBABLY USED HER OWN FAMOUSLY SAGGY MAMMARIES. GROSS!!!!!
Progress is great, but GEEZ, she is an average clone of whoricon madonna.
Not worthy of anything but monetary acknowledgement.
Or the power of the ILLUMINATI. …..kidding….maybe….
She isn't new though, idiot. Of course, Perez, you'd expect the rules to be changed for your darling ugly tranny.
What? Because he/she has a peen?
Wouldnt have it any other way
Bitch deserves it
The Grammy's are clueless anyway.
She's not NEW ANYMORE!
WTF! how is she a " new" artist if she has already been nominated! fuck perez you are so stupid and annoying
get outta gaga's butt!
While i do like Lady Gaga, the flow of your logic doesn't make sense. You're saying that the rules are changing because of Lady Gaga ? That's the slant of the article. The Grammy probably realized that it needed to revisit the rules and its not due to Lady Gaga. Lady Gaga will probably be nominated in multiple categories. She doesn't need the new artist category to get a grammy this year. She'll be in the major categories - pop, record and single of the year, best song, dance video, dance remix, etc.
Oh for fucks sake, GET OVER IT!
If she was nominated for ANYTHING last year, then she was obviously big enough at the time to possibly be in the running for Best New Artist— AND SHE WASN'T because obviously she was not the best new artist.. and this year, she's NOT NEW.
SO GET OVER IT.
She is not new; simple as that.
You and Gag need to get the hell over it!!
it won`t change anything since the bitch sucks and therefore won`t win anyway. but maybe they could create an extra award for the biggest number of ass bombs on stage?
I sure hope you are on her payroll because you make an ass out of yourself every day with your obsequious fawning and endless promotion of this wannabe.
Perez email me your ring size and shipping address… You NEED one of my Sterling Silver Mood Rings.
They shouldn't be changed because of someone you like asshole. Get over it. Lady Gaga is a gimmick and a mess anyway.Fail.
Re: blmo54 – she's not new though, that's what the whole thing is about…
god, perez wouldn't even care if it wasn't lady gag-me. she's NOT new, GET OVER IT!
shut the hell up.are u kiding me???she ONLY SOLD 1.5 MILLION COPIES??LOL THERES ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. madonna sold 3.5 tickets with her last tour and she sold ober 4 million with her last album.madonna is 2 weeks sold 2 million copies of celebration.i told u that GAGA ISNT EVEN AT TOP 10 IN EUROPE. GAG IS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING WHY SHOULD SHE BE NOMONATEED? her songs are boring and shes absolutely nothing without that stupid cloths
next year.he is not talking that about gaga asshole. gaga is not even nominated and they dont care. or else they would change this year.get a life. gaga has absolutely no power.shes not madonna or mj. she doesnt even perform in stadiums. gagasshole is a fucking loser that only sold 1.5 million.madonna sold 20 million with her first album.shame on u CACA AND TRY NEXT LIFE
I wonder why you say Gaga will change the rules, self-obsessed like you are.
.
I expected a "Yikes, we did it! we changed the Grammy-Rules!"
.
Boring, I need a coffee now, this site puts me asleep
LADY GAGA! People like her only come rarely! Look at Madonna till Lady Gaga she was a true artist!
it's not fair…the rules are the rules…
As much as I love her music, I hope they don't change the rules. It seems pretty clear to me, that who has been nominated before, is not a NEW artist.
I also didn't agree with JoBro's nom last year. Not only because they sound like dying cats but because they had been around for years, even if they wasn't nominated before.
There are so many arists who deserve this even if they didn't sell as much as Gaga. It's not only about the numbers.
This is ridiculous!! She is not a new artist, so why change the rules!!
If they want to nominee Gaga so bad, why don't they just do it for best album or best dance recording or something!!
I don't think that these rules really seem unfair… I like Lady GaGa, but she was nominated last year… And you said that the Jonas Brothers shouldn't have been nominated last year, because their album had been out so long… Umm, hers has been out since the last Grammy's, as well.
This doesn't seem at all like the Jennifer Hudson situation. I hope they don't bend the rules for her. I like her, but… As everyone else said, rules are rules for a reason.
Re: idevenn – HaHa and yet you changed your profile anyway. Way to stick to your guns.
Re: MadonnaCelebration –
Actually THE FAME has sold 4 million around the world, and Madonna's debut sold 8 million, not 20. And of course Gaga hasn't been nominated for a Grammy, because the Grammy nominations for next year haven't even been announced yet.
Pretty sure she's not great enough to break a rule! She's not that special. Get off her dick! I say to everyone here complaining, lets stop looking on his site and get rid of him! The only reason he's a little famous is because we're looking on his site. I'm going to stop, Perez your pathetic and late with all your news. I have no need for you now
is this a new dick tucking device around laddy caca`s hips or some cushion for the next ass bombs?
change the rules if they like. she won't win
I used to go to this site every day. There was breaking news and interesting stories. Now I visit it about once a month because every other freaking post is about Lady Gaga. The posts that aren't about Lady Gaga have been on other sites for days before or are self-publicizing some stupid project Perez is working on.
He should just convert the site to the Lady Gaga Brown Nose club and then I won't have to guess as to whether or not there will be any relevant information on the blog.
Re: Carrie Prejean Masturbates – LOL i LOVE your name . carrie prejean masturbates hehe

What happened to Dixie Normas? Did she get a job?
That pic of her is terrible. It looks like a hideous monster costume from Halloween.
1.5 Million ist actually not that much! Other artist sold way more this year!
i don't get it. she started last year, so she's not new. get over it
The Grammys and the American Music Awards are both meaningless crap. They lost their credibility decades ago (when they ignored the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, the Who, Pink Floyd, etc). Unfortunately, they've never done anything to regain that credibility.
Are you kidding me? She isnt changing the rules, this already happened with Amy Winehouse, she had her debut album, Frank in 2003 and with Back to Black she got nominated for best new artist at the VMAs, at Vibe Awards and at the Word Music Awards in 2007 and in 2008 she was nominated for best new artist at the Grammy Awards, it was 5 years late, not 1 year like Lady Gaga
"The power of HaHa"?Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha.You're riding this horse right off a cliff Mario.Look out below.
SHE SHOULD CONCENTRATE MORE ON THE MUSIC THAN THE AWARDS….BECAUSE HER MUSIC SUCKS.THERE'S YOUR POWER OF GAGA
Wow i can not believe this crap is even considered music. If I only knew then that "Lucky Star" was going to create all this crap I would have prayed for madonnas demise long ago. Music has so gone to the crapper. Just put a voice synth and some dance mix on in the background and call it talent? Please…..
PEREZ ARE YOU A RETARD…YOU JUST SAID THAT IT WS JENNIFER HUDSON'S PROBLEM LAST YEAR…IF IT CHANGES IT IS BECAUSE OF THE OSCAR WINNING ACTRESS NOT THAT FAKE TRANNY
let her be nominated. its not like shes going to win. i cant stand her
f_g
LMAO. The REAL STORY here is that Lady GarGoyle's new ALBUM FLOPPED. It's TRUE. She DEBUTED AT #5 on the Billboard charts. MUCH LOWER than expected. Not only losing out to Susan Boyle and Adam Gaybert, but also to Andrea Bocelli and RIHANNA. HAHAHA. Rihanna's new album OUTSOLD Lady GarGoyle's. HILARIOUS DIASTER.
The TRANNY TROLL's new album debuted at a DISASTROUS #5 with ONLY 171,000 copies sold. PATHETIC.
Lady GarGoyle must be DEVASTATED that her new album TANKED. It got HORRIBLE REVIEWS and the public just ISN'T buying her STALE act anymore.
GREAT NEWS: Susan Boyle sold over 700,000 copies of her new cd. Gaybert, Rihanna and Lady Gargoyle COULD NOT EVEN sell 200,000. LOL> Even Miley Cyrus nearly outsold them with her ancient ep. RIHANNA, who's album has been LABLED A HUGE DISAPPOINTMENT, STILL crushed Lady Gargoyle.
LOL. So Lady Gargoyle has LESS than 200,000 fans TOTAL. LOL. Her new album ONLY sold 170,000 copies. HYSTERICAL FAILURE.
@DixieNormas, wow, I bet you have a voodoo doll and you torture her thinking it will afect Gaga, go get a therapist you psycho
As I said before, she wont change any rules, because the rules have been changed already, this already happened with Amy Winehouse, she had her debut album, Frank in 2003 and in 2008 she made Back to Black and she got nominated for best new artist at the VMAs, at Vibe Awards and at the Word Music Awards in 2007 and in 2008 she was nominated for best new artist at the Grammy Awards, it was 5 years late, not 1 year like Lady Gaga
NOWHERE.
Yeah you're goin' no where, FAST.
Maybe this time, you'll disappear and we'll be fine.
C-c-c-crazy, get your saggy azz out' my face.
Maybe you’ll be -just a temporary nightmare.
TRAN-NY BOY.
You'll get lost, you can only fake it so long.
Anywhere's fine, just leave us alone.
The wheels just stopped, and are comin O-O-OFF.
Don’t be sad when your career goes down.
You’ll wake up and no one's around.
We've got to go. Oh oh oh.
You'll still be a TRANNY after all.
TRAN-NY BOY.
laaaaaaaav's her
cant wait until she comes to glasgow!! march 2010 baby 
..
Sometimes, I might start a FIGHT.
But I’m happy, knowing your sales are not alright.
Sunglasses, should always cover-up your face.
Your martini glistens, yeah.
When you're fallin' on the stage.
TRAN-NY BOY.
Just get lost and leave us alone.
Anywhere's fine, as long as you're gone.
The wheels just locked, and are comin' O-O-OFF.
Don’t be sad when your career goes down.
You’ll wake up and no one's around.
They've got to go. Oh oh oh.
You'll still be a tranny after all.
TRAN-NY BOY.
I dont think she should win best new artist, but she should win something else.
Re: blahblah12 – you calling her a tranny isnt gonna make her one
find a new nickname for her.
I hate GaGa.
Re: stellagranos – well she did. I mean we don't see that nowadays, so why not bring everything back? Everyone raves on about how artists in the past were so amazing, and my generation never really got to witness it. But by Lady Gaga being here, we kinda see what people mean.
She doesn't mind not being nominated. She isn't making music for the awards. She's doing it because she loves it, and she's doing it for her fans. We know she's talented, we don't need an award to prove that.
Re: DixieNormas – haha, horrible reviews? by what I've read critics seem to love her new album.
Oh and Perez, Lady Gaga sold 4 million albums…not 1.5
Lady Gaga is NOT new! Perhaps she should have timed her album better and her label should have submitted her for contention in that category when they had a chance. This happened to Jennifer Hudson and would be incredibly unfair to her to bend the rules just Lady Gaga had a good year. Obviously they were not impressed by her. Hell, even Britney Spears was nominated for Best New Artist. LOL. Her voice sucks and she is less talented than Lady Poo Poo, the Princess of Poop. You really need to take your head out of her ass, it's disturbing how obsessed with her you are.
Wow, just get over it already. Just because you think she's the best thing since sliced bread…
Hey, guys, get over it.
She is actually nominated for a Grammy.
Owned.
BEHOLD THE POWER OF GAGA
Behold GAGA!!
RAH RAH RAHH AH AHH ROMA MA MAMA GAGA O0LA LA WANT CHO BAD ROMANCE!
she is a satanist. jayz and beyonce too. go to utube, theindustryexposed channel to learn all about it
That's the way the cookie crumbles. Best New Artist seems to be the kiss of death more often than not. It just. doesn't. matter. She'll rack up the better awards.
