2022 Grammy Awards: Olivia Rodrigo is the one to beat

Disney actress turned pop sensation Olivia Rodrigo is nominated in all of the top four categories of the Grammy Awards - and she has a decent shot at a clean sweep.

The 19-year-old is practically a lock-in for best new artist; and her classy break-up ballad Drivers License is a strong contender for song of the year and record of the year.

The one category where she might encounter trouble is album of the year; where her smart and peppy debut album Sour is up against more complex, musically-intricate works by Jon Batiste, Kanye West and H.E.R.

If Rodrigo takes home all four prizes, she'll be only the third artist in history to do it, after Christopher Cross and Billie Eilish.

The Grammy Awards will be held tomorrow.
