Early Friday on CBS This Morning, Ed Sheeran and Pharrell Williams stopped by to reveal four major categories of nominations for the 57th Annual Grammy Awards.
Sheeran's own x (pronounced "multiply") got a nod for Best Pop Vocal Album and Pharrell's G I R L got a nomination for Best Urban Contemporary Album. Sheeran didn't act too surprised, however, because he admitted that he had "peeked" at the results just before officially announcing them.
The Album of the Year nominees were announced Friday night during CBS' A Very Grammy Christmas special.

i really hope Sia wins all the nomination. Seems like Sam Smith is likely the one who will win big that night. As well as Beyonce. Both of them are too overrated.
