# Grammy Award voor Best Pop Vocal Album

De Grammy Award voor Best Pop Vocal album is een onderscheiding die wordt uitgereikt tijdens de Grammy Awards, aan artiesten die kwalitatief hoogstaande vocale popmuziekalbums hebben uitgebracht. Jaarlijks worden er door de National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences van de Verenigde Staten prijzen in verschillende categorieën uitgereikt om ‘artistieke prestaties, technische vaardigheden en algemene uitmuntendheid in de opname-industrie te eren, ongeacht de albumverkoop of de positie in de hitlijsten.’
De award werd voor het eerst uitgereikt in 1968 tijdens de 10e Grammy Awards. Toen heette de categorie nog Best Contemporary Album aan The Beatles voor Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. De categorie werd daarna stopgezet tot 1995. Daarna kreeg het een nieuwe naam Best Pop Album. In 2001 werd de categorie bekend als Best Pop Vocal Album. Volgens de categoriebeschrijvingsgids voor de 52ste Grammy Awards wordt de prijs uitgereikt aan artiesten die ‘albums uitvoeren die voor ten minste 51% bestaan uit nieuw opgenomen popvocale nummers’.
De prijs gaat naar de artiest, producer en mixer, op voorwaarde dat ze aan meer dan 50% van de speeltijd op het album hebben gewerkt. Een producer of mixer die aan minder dan 50% van de speeltijd heeft gewerkt, evenals de mastering engineer, winnen geen prijs, maar kunnen wel een winnaarscertificaat aanvragen.
Adele, Kelly Clarkson en Taylor Swift zijn de enigen die deze prijs twee keer hebben gewonnen. Clarkson was de eerste die twee keer won. Clarkson is met zes nominaties, de meest genomineerde artiest in deze categorie.
