Awards season has officially begun. Tuesday morning, presenter (and Grammy winner) Meghan Trainorannounced the nominees for the 2017 Grammy Awards. And it seems that the upcoming February award show is going to be filled with heavy-hitters.
Leading with nine nominations, Beyoncé will face off with runner-up Adele, who is nominated for eight Grammys, for a ton of categories: Record of the Year, Song of the Year, and Album of the Year. Other top nominees include Drake and Kanye West, who also have eight nominations each.
While there are many familiar faces and Grammy vets nominated for the coveted awards, there are also several first-time nominees. And a good mix of them couldn't contain their excitement on social media. Check out their reactions:
