Jimmy Carter, the oldest GRAMMY nominee at 100

It's Groundhog Day and Punxsutawney Phil saw his shadow, so six more weeks of winter, but it's also Sunday, when I post my entertainment features. Since there was no new episode of Saturday Night Live last night, I am covering GRAMMY Awards today. Watch ABC 7 Chicago as it reported Jimmy Carter earns 10th Grammy nomination.

Former president Jimmy Carter could become the oldest Grammy award winner in history at 100.
Unfortunately, former President Carter passed away in December, but he has three Grammy Awards already, so he did experience winning this award thrice.


The late President Carter's competition for Best Audio Book, Narration & Storytelling Recording consists of George Clinton for ...And Your Ass Will Follow, Guy Oldfield for All You Need Is Love: The Beatles In Their Own Words, Dolly Parton for Behind the Seams: My Life in Rhinestones, and Barbra Streisand for My Name Is Barbra. He certainly would win a game of one of these things is not like the others among all these audiobooks by and about recording artists. That might work in his favor because they will likely split the vote. Gold Derby thinks so, as the editors, experts, and top 24 users all agree on Carter being the overwhelming favorite. I hope so.

ETA: Carter won!

I close with this trivia question from Quizzclub.


The answer is Carter, Clinton, and Obama.

I might cover the winners in a future entertainment feature. In the meantime, stay tuned for a topical post tomorrow.
