There’s also that possibility neither Doja nor Megan wins BNA. They are both popular enough to split a lot of the votes. That’s where someone like Phoebe could prevail.

exactly, i feel like people may be swayed towards doja cat because she currently has a growing hit with saweetie, the 34+35 remix, streets going viral & a new era set to begin in february. but the reality is, she had pretty much nothing throughout the whole voting period

A small number of us already pegged Doja as a leading contender since July. I think with Grammys you could do as much as you can to remain “relevant” during voting by campaigning but at the end of the day is who get the votes. If you were voting Megan before the nominations came out then you’re likely to vote Megan even if Phoebe Bridgers does a week long residency at Jimmy Kimmel. It doesn’t change much.

Honey, there is no correlation between major award shows and the Grammys.  Doja Cat winning Best New Artist at other shows mean nothing.

Has Doja won any award that wasn’t fan-voted?

If the voting period was right now, Doja Cat would have a chance to win thanks to Streets becoming a hit right now.

It will really be the Scammys if a woman of color doesn’t win BNA after having some of the biggest cultural moments of the year (Savage, Say So, WAP)

Fan voted awards are NOT really “fan voted”.

Let me rephrase the original question: Are those award shows voted by a large body of voters or just a few insiders? Hand-picked awards like the VMAs or AMAs are not really an indication of any major support, even though I think Doja can win it.

Get real!  Phoebe Bridgers is NOT the most talented Best New Artist nominee.  Stop smoking that ganja.
