Lady Gaga and Tony Bennett can’t hide their bliss after they were nominated in the 2022 Grammy Awards.

On Tuesday November 23, the Recording Academy announced the nominees for the 64th Annual GRAMMY Awards, and Gaga and Bennett’s album ‘Love’ available to be purchased caught a unimaginable six nominations.

Gaga quickly took to Instagram and wrote:

“Thank you so much to the @RecordingAcademy for these 6 nominations for Love For Sale. I am stunned and shocked and beyond grateful,” Gaga wrote, alongside a photo of herself sitting in Bennett’s lap that was snapped as a promo pic for the album. “I don’t know what to say. I just keep crying and am utterly speechless.”

“This means so much to me, @itstonybennett, the Bennetts, my family, jazz music, and the great Cole Porter who wrote all these timeless classics,” she continued.

Meanwhile, Bennett, who is 95, has been battling Alzheimer’s infection starting around 2016. Also, his intellectual capacities are consistently declining with age.

In the profile, Bennett’s son uncovered that Gaga has known about his diagnosis for quite some time and has been perhaps his greatest supporters and advocate.

“I’ll never forget today and congratulating Tony on his 6 nominations. I’ll never forget that today he could track every word I was saying and understood the world was celebrating him and celebrating jazz – a genre that embodies the joy, abundance and imagination of Black music throughout history.”

“Thank you to all the Grammy voters for recognizing me and Tony’s dedication to jazz music and for also recognizing it in major categories where this music is often not nominated,” Gaga continued. “This album happened because it was Tony’s idea and I made him a promise that we would make it and we did.”

She wondered that, “At 95, years of age, he has more nominations than any time in recent memory. I’m so honored to be his companion in music and his friend.”

“Believe in love and partnership, even with 60 years between us, and Alzheimer’s, there is nothing like the magic of music,” she concluded. “I love you Tony, and the world loves you too. How could they not? ❤️”

Love for Sale will be Gaga and Bennett’s last together and is a follow-up to their 2014 album, Cheek to Cheek.
