In a sea of pop music’s leading ladies at Sunday’s Grammy Awards, all eyes are on British newcomer Sam Smith with six nominations amid speculation that he could emulate Adele’s 2012 sweep at the ceremony.
“I don’t think it takes a massive crystal ball to think that it’s going to be Sam Smith’s night,” said Lyndsey Parker, editor of Yahoo Music.
Much like Adele, who swept the Grammys with six wins, Smith, 22, is nominated in the night’s top three categories for record, album and song of the year, after his debut album “In The Lonely Hour” stormed the U.S. charts last year, led by his soulful song “Stay With Me.”
