Why in the Latin Grammy Awards, there's never Portuguese speaking singers?

Question

Is it necessary to speak Spanish to participate?

Answer 1

it's really strange cause if latin is considered latin america... latin america includes all the countrys on americas that have a latin based language, including Brazil where language is portuguese...i think it's just wrong to do this.... the grammy should be calle Spanish Grammy Awards

Answer 2

The Latin Grammy Awards honor achievements in the music industry by Spanish-speaking individuals/groups. The Portuguese language, though similar to Spanish, is not Spanish.

When the Board of Directors of The Latin Grammy Awards, and Latin American musicians choose to include the Portuguese in Latin Grammy Award nominations, this talented group of musicians may be regognized and honored.
