The 55th Annual Grammy Awards have arrived. LL Cool J is hosting the show live at the Staples Center in L.A. on Sunday, Feb. 10.
Before the show kicks off, take a look back at this year's list of top nominees. Though 18-year-old pop phenom Justin Bieber was completely shut out when nominations were announced on Dec, many of his peers — including Taylor Swift, Carly Rae Jepson, Kelly Clarkson, Frank Ocean and others — fared much better.
