Just give Björk a damn Grammy already

It famously took soap icon Susan Lucci 19 nominations to win a Daytime Emmy for her deliciously bitchy tenure on All My Children, and it may take Björk just as many to win a Grammy. She’s now been up for 16 awards—mostly in the Alternative Album and Music Video categories—with no wins. Last night, British duo Wet Leg nabbed the Alternative Album trophy, for their gnawingly catchy debut, over Fossora. But hey, it could be worse—Björk once lost the accolade to a one-hit-wonder (Gotye) and a bad, late-career Beck album. Besides the fact that she obviously makes great music, Grammys producers should consider this: Björk went to the Oscars approximately once, and we’re still talking about the Swan Dress. Let this woman shine!

The last point doesn't make sense? She could choose to attend the ceremony any of these times she's nominated

Too bad we need to wait another 977 years to find out who wins MTV's next Artist of the Millennium award.
