It looks like Eminem's triumphant 2010 comeback will extend into next year, as the rapper has earned a leading 10 nominations for the 53rd Annual Grammy Awards including album of the year (for "Recovery") and record and song of the year (for "Love the Way You Lie," featuring Rihanna).
Following Eminem's lead in Grammy nominations is newcomer Bruno Mars, who received a surprising seven nods despite the fact that the release date of his solo debut album, "Doo-Wops & Hooligans," fell outside of the Grammy eligibility period by one week. Mars is nominated for his collaborations with other artists as a member of the songwriting/production team the Smeezingtons, including Cee Lo Green's "F***k You" (nominated for both record and song of the year) and B.o.B.'s "Nothin' On You" (also nominated for record of the year).
Tied with six Grammy nominations apiece are Jay-Z, Lady Antebellum and Lady Gaga. Jay-Z is nominated for record of the year for "Empire State of Mind," his New York-dedicated duet with Alicia Keys, while Lady Antebellum and Lady Gaga are both nominated for album of the year, for "Need You Now" and "The Fame Monster," respectively.
