The Minnesota State Fair has been making announcements throughout the past year or so about who will be performing at the Grandstand this summer. But their latest announcement is the one that I'm most excited about so far!

I would argue that this is the biggest announcement they've had yet, but I may be biased.

This popstar has won multiple awards, including:

  • Grammy for Best New Artist
  • Grammy for Record of the Year
  • Grammy for Song of the Year
  • People's Choice Award for Favorite Album
  • Billboard Music Award for Top Hot 100 Song

And that's just a few of the 15 awards she's won out of 67 nominations. Impressive!
