Daughtry may not be seen on Grammy's
Beverly Hills, February 8, 2008 "We don't even know if they are going to air our nominations
yet," Chris Daughtry told The Associated Press on Thursday as they
rehearsed for Clive Davis' annual pre-Grammy blowout concert
Saturday night.
"I've heard that we may not be shown, because it's the 50th
anniversary and they are going to have a lot of back-to-back
performances, so you may not even see us on TV," the 28-year-old
singer said.
Although the Grammys award 110 trophies, only about 10 percent
of the categories are shown on the live CBS telecast; most of the
show is jam-packed with performances.
"You may see us on the red carpet and peace out, because we
probably already took home all four," he joked.
Daughtry, the namesake of the "American Idol" finalist, had
one of last year's best-selling albums with their self-titled
debut, which is among the nominees for best rock album. But they
face competition from rock veterans ranging from U2 to Bruce
Springsteen to the Foo Fighters in their categories.
When asked about their stiffest competition, Daughtry said:
"It's the Foo Fighters and the Boss. You can't deny that everybody
who's ever up against him loses."
