News is just in from the U.S. that The Confessions Tour by Madonna has been submitted for consideration for nomination for Best Long Form Music Video at the 50th Grammy Awards.

This is only the first step of the process where entries are submitted and then screened for eligibility and category placement – it doesn’t mean The Confessions Tour is nominated then, it just means it’s been submitted for nomination as part of a list that currently includes 158 films.

The Best Long Form Music Video is Category #110 at the Grammy Awards – and is meant for video album packages consisting of more than one song or track.

The Award is presented to the Artist and to the Video Director/Producer of at least 51% of the total playing time.

The 50th Grammy Awards – a milestone for the Grammys and the Recording Academy – will take place on February 10, 2008 at the Staples Center in Los Angeles.

Nominations will be announced on December 6, 2007.
