Music’s big night will now likely be held in March, Rolling Stone reported, citing organizers who have not confirmed a new date.

Beyoncé, who got nine nominations, leads the pack of nominees, which also includes Dua Lipa, Taylor Swift and Roddy Ricch. Trevor Noah was scheduled to host the January ceremony, but it’s unclear if he will still be the host for the future show.

Nominations proved to be somewhat scandalous this year as The Weeknd lashed out for being snubbed by the Academy despite his album, “After Hours,” having two No. 1 hits: “Heartless” and “Blinding Lights.”
