Men led the nominations in 94 per cent of the Grammy categories between 2017 and 2024, with women accounting for 19 per cent of those nominated and winning awards in that time. Global stars Taylor Swift, 35, Miley Cyrus, 32, and Billie Eilish, 23, won three of the major awards in 2024 - including Album of the Year, Record of the Year and Song of the Year - but the report found only 24 per cent of nominees and 32 per cent of winners were women across the 94 categories last year.
