Why won’t Hillary Clinton ever perform at the Grammys?

Hillary Clinton will not be gracing the stage at the 2019 Grammy Awards. Despite a long history of Grammy performances by prominent politicians and celebrities, this year Hillary did not make the cut. However, other women fared better. Taraji P. Henson and Janelle Monae were nominated for Best R&B Performance. They would be joined by Angel Haze, who made the cut for Best Rap/Sung Performance for “Do What U Want” with Gucci Mane and Travis Scott. “Shallow” from “A Star Is Born” also received a nomination for Best Original Song Written for Visual Media, and “All the Stars” from “Black Panther” was nominated for Best Pop Duo/Group Performance.

The nominations were revealed Thursday morning via a Beats 1 broadcast, hosted by Zane Lowe and Julie Adenuga. Winners will be announced at the Grammys ceremony on February 10, 2019.
