Grammys admit counting errors in nominations press release

Grammy organisers admit they omitted Ludacris from a list of multiple nominees and wrongly gave John Williams five nominations instead of four.

Grammy organisers have had to admit that they made a couple of mistakes in the press release they issued last week alongside the short lists for next year's awards bash. Firstly they missed Ludacris off the list of artists who had received four nominations overall but, probably more embarrassing, they said that music composer John Williams had got five nominations, when actually he'd only got four. Still, with four and half thousand categories to work with (around about), it's understandable a few counting errors might take place. As previously reported, the Grammys take place in LA on 11 Feb.
