One of the worst hits made by the curse was to pop-goth band Evanescence when after winning the award two of the three original members left, the lead singers relationship broke up, the lead singer was sexually assulted, the lead singer was sued, the new lead guitarist suffered a stroke and the album suffered a delay from the originally planned release date of January 2004 to October 2006
The category is also noticeable for being the only category in which a Grammy Award was revoked. This occurred in 1991 after it was revealed winners Milli Vanilli did not do their own vocals on their debut album. The award was revoked, but was not handed out to another artist.
