Was Zara Larsson Asked to Replace Camila Cabello in Fifth Harmony? She Says…
Actually, the thing with Zara Larsson’s ambition is that not everything is a competition.
As the “Ambition” singer sees it, her significant success in the past year shouldn’t qualify her for Best New Artist at the 2027 Grammys because she has been a performer for more than a decade.
“I was speaking to my former label about this,” Larsson told Perfect Magazine in an interview published on Aug. 27, “and they were like, ‘Yeah, we’re going to see if we can put you in Best New Artist for the Grammys.’ And I’m like, ‘I don’t even want that. That would downplay the 13 years of me being an artist. I’m not a new artist.’”
Although the 28-year-old—who won Talang, the Swedish version of America’s Got Talent, when she was 10—has found success with previous songs including 2015’s “Lush Life” and 2017’s “Symphony,” her fifth studio album Midnight Sun skyrocketed her notoriety after its release in September.
But while Larsson admitted she’s certainly felt “a shift” recently, she is still looking at her career as a whole.
