CELEBRITY FRIDAY: Openly Gay Singer Sam Smith Nominated For Multiple Grammys

This year's Grammy award nominations are being announced today and openly gay Sam Smith is expected to clean up. In a break with tradition, the nominations are being released continuously during a 24-hour period with the biggest category, Album of the Year being announced last, at 10pm EST on a prime time special.

So far the 22-year-old Briton has been nominated for 5 Grammys including some of the biggest categories such as Best New Artist, Song of the Year and Record of the Year (for his smash hit song "Stay With Me"). He is widely expected to have his debut album In The Lonely Hour nominated for Album of the Year as well. He would become the first man in several decades (since Christopher Cross in 1982) to be nominated in all four of the biggest categories.
