Absent at the awards, Anitta loses Grammy for best Latin pop album to Shakira
Nominated for the second time, funkeira did not travel to Los Angeles because she had already committed to the ‘Ensaios de Anitta’ tour; she competed with the album Funk Generation
Anitta did not win the Grammy in the 67th edition of the awards, losing the award for best Latin pop album to Shakira, who was recognized for her work “Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran”. The Brazilian artist was nominated with her album “Funk Generation”, but was not seen as one of the favorites to take the trophy. It was the second time the funkeira received a Grammy nomination. In 2023, she had already competed in the category of revelation artist, but also did not succeed on that occasion.
The artist was not present at the ceremony, held in Los Angeles, because she had already committed to her “Ensaios da Anitta” tour in Brazil. In addition to Anitta, other Brazilian musicians were also in the dispute. Milton Nascimento, Eliane Elias and Hamilton from Holanda competed in the category of best Latin jazz album.
Anitta’s absence at the ceremony was noticed, especially considering her impact on the music scene. Even not taking the award, her nomination is a significant recognition of her work and the growing presence of Brazilian music in international events
