Fans of the K-pop band BTS are fuming about the Grammys ceremony on Sunday night. They have accused organisers of inviting the band to get viewing numbers up but denying them an award. They performed one of their songs during the ceremony, and were also nominated for Best Pop Duo/Group Performance. However, the award went to Doja Cat and SZA. Fans have been calling out the snub because they think BTS are being used  because of their huge fanbase.
