GRAMMYs 2023 closed on February 5 at Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles. This is also the third time BTS has received a nomination at this prestigious award.
Although this year's results were the same as last year and people once again talked a lot about the regret that BTS didn't win this award, one thing that caught everyone's attention was even if BTS didn't. appeared at the awards ceremony, they still became a big topic. More specifically, the image of Jimin was also found next to Adele and Jay-Z in the most famous αmєrícαn newspaper when talking about this event.
Here's what ARMYs found in USA Today:
The third year of competing for the GRAMMYs and BTS once again ended the finale with empty hands. But from the perspective of fans and experts, they all αssert that this does not mean failure at all.
BTS has shown their extraordinary strength when they were nominated for GRAMMYS for three consecutive years in the category of Best Pop Duo/Group Performance. BTS is also the only boy group to win important awards in the two biggest US awards besides GRAMMYs, Billboard Music Awards and αmєrícαn Music Awards.
It is also stated that the fact that BTS did not win GRAMMY does not mean that the quality of their music is not recognized. This is because there are many recognized artists without a GRAMMY award history. In ABBA's case, being nominated for Best Pop Duo/Performance alongside BTS, was their second nomination, but they didn't win. But no fan should disparage ABBA's musical achievements just because they didn't win a GRAMMY.
Hip-hop icons Tupac, Katy Perry and Sia, who topped the Billboard charts in the 2010s, also have no ties to GRAMMY. BTS themselves have said that winning a Grammy is important but not their top priority. RM once said, "We didn't go to Vegas for the Grammys. We come to gather for ARMYs! Records, titles, achievements, trophies, they're really important, but that's not the first thing, the first reason why we started all of this..."
And of course, as above, BTS completely conquered fans and became the center of attention even more than this famous awards ceremony even without appearing in Los Angeles. Typically, Jimin's picture was posted on the front page of USA Today - the nationwide American newspaper with an approximate daily readership of 2.6 million.
He stood next to Adele and Jay-Z - αmєrícα's top icons of music as the paper announced where to find all the content related to the 65th #GRAMMYs. And this shows that he is really popular and attractive that they use his image in such a largest newspaper in the United States.
Many ARMYs also αssert that it is the clearest manifestation that with or without GRAMMYs, BTS in general and Jimin in particular are already legendary from within themselves:
- Frontman Park Jimin strikes again despite not attending the Grammys
- I took that photo this morning. When I saw him in the cover I almost screamed in the store.
- We would have almost screamed as well
- This is amazing!!! Jimin wasn't even there, but he's on the front page of USA Today!!!
- Omg, in the middle of digitam distruption, jimin give a positive impact for audience growth. Just bcs his photo on headline? Amazing….
- This man has too many silent admirers who don’t care about social media who genuinely love and support and respect him for his talent and people be shocked when he breaks records and pulls crowds at Dior and sells out luxury brands the real world is not Twitter wait for him
- Let’s be happy and positive guys.. PJM1 is coming
