Taylor has won everything else in the last 12 months…she will win album of the year and deservedly so.

New York, NY (PRWEB) January 28, 2010

Who doesn't love the Grammy Awards? No matter what scandals or sports are present throughout the rest of the popular culture, all eyes and ears tune in for what has become the biggest annual televised music showcase. Members of Predicto Mobile, Snackable Media's popular interactive SMS entertainment provider, even vote by text message to voice their predictions on which chart-topping rivals will walk away big winners. Predicto's mobile community has been weighing in on all this year's major categories, but in their most voted-on Grammy polls, the names of three divas have been popping up again and again: Beyonce, Lady Gaga and Taylor Swift.

Based on the votes so far, it seems that Predicto is definitely Team Taylor (as in country superstar, not hunky werewolf). 78% of the Predicto mobile community believe that Swift's "Fearless" will win Album of the Year. In addition to sending votes via their mobile device, many members also text in poll-specific comments, that are displayed online at Predicto.com. Predicto member "JGFan," for instance, says "Taylor has won everything else in the last 12 months…she will win album of the year and deservedly so."

Last year's biggest hit, Beyonce's "Single Ladies," was inescapable in 2009. The catchy single was hilariously lampooned by the singer herself on SNL, infamously endorsed by Kanye West and paid tribute in viral videos featuring babies, animated chipmunks and even Glee's football players. 67% of the Predicto Mobile community think Sasha Fierce's alter ego will walk away with both Song of the Year and Record of the Year.

Lady Gaga is nominated for many of the same awards as Taylor and Beyonce, but one category she has all to herself is Best Dance Recording. Unfortunately, her fellow nominees include the biggest pop stars on the planet: Britney Spears, Black Eyed Peas and Gaga's idol, Madonna. Nevertheless, the futuristic femme dominates the competition in mobile Grammy predictions, with 62% of Predicto voters saying she'll win for "Poker Face."

Still, when it comes to forecasting the night's biggest winner overall, all signs point to Ms. Swift. In Predicto's newest survey, 47% of voters think Taylor Swift will win the most awards at the Grammys. The mobile community shared their thoughts about other Grammy categories, viewable on a new Web page dedicated to Predicto's top award show surveys. Here's a rundown on their predictions:

•     55% voted that Ciara and Justin Timberlake's sizzling duet, "Love Sex Magic," will win a Grammy for Best Pop Collaboration.
•     66% predict that retiring duo Brooks & Dunn will take home a Grammy for Best Duo/Group Country Performance.
•     66% think that critically acclaimed synth-pop group MGMT will NOT win Best New Artist at the Grammys.
•     59% say that Maxwell's "Pretty Wings" will receive the Best Male R&B Vocal Performance Grammy.
•     53% voted that newcomer Drake will get the Grammy for Best Solo Rap Performance.
•     70% believe that no matter how impressive his boat is, funnyman Andy Samberg will NOT beat out Jay-Z and T.I. for Best Rap/Sung Collaboration Grammy.
