Mariah’s Grammy Whammy

The emancipation of Mariah Carey from all things that Glitter seems complete.

The songbird soared with eight Grammy nominations Thursday, including an Album of the Year nod for her comeback statement, The Emancipation of Mimi.

The other Album of the Year nominees are: Gwen Stefani’s Love. Angel. Music. Baby.; U2′s How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb; Kanye West’s Late Registration; and, easily the biggest surprise, Paul McCartney’s Chaos and Creation in the Backyard.

Historical Grammy favorites shut out in that top category include Eminem, Coldplay and Bruce Springsteen, who despite his legend status has never won an Album of the Year Grammy–no, not even for Born to Run–and won’t win one for his sparse Devils & Dust.

In the race for Record of the Year, Carey’s “We Belong Together” will go up against Green Day’s “Boulevard of Broken Dreams,” Gwen Stefani’s “Hollaback Girl,” West’s “Gold Digger” and Gorillaz’ “Feel So Good Inc.”

The 48th annual Grammy Awards are scheduled to be presented in a live CBS telecast on Feb. 8 from Los Angeles.
