Why Taylor Swift Won’t Be Dancing Front Row at Grammys 2026
It's time to start the drum roll for these Grammys 2026 winners.
The annual award show hosted by Trevor Noah is set to kick off at Los Angeles' Crypto.com Arena on Feb. 1, and that means several of the biggest names in music will walk away with trophies at the end of the night.
And while not everyone can come out victorious during the ceremony, which will air on CBS and stream on Paramount+ at 8 p.m. ET, all the competition was certainly deserving of the gilded gramophone statue. (To see the complete list of nominees for the 2026 Grammys, click here.)
Indeed, the categories were stacked with talent for the big night in music's 68th telecast, with Kendrick Lamar leading the pack with a whopping nine total nods. The rapper's collaboration with SZA, "luther," will face off against the likes of Bad Bunny's "DtMF", Sabrina Carpenter's "Manchild", Doechii's "Anxiety", Billie Eilish's "Wildflower," Lady Gaga's "Abracadabra," Chappell Roan's "The Subway" and Rosé and Bruno Mars' "APT" for Record of the Year.
But those veteran nominees aren't the only ones making this year's show especially exciting. Several newcomers have picked up first-time nods in major categories as well.
Olivia Dean will vie for a trophy for Best New Artist alongside fellow breakout stars Katseye, The Marías, Addison Rae, sombr, Leon Thomas, Alex Warren and Lola Young.

Plus, Lola's hit "Messy" is up against Justin Bieber ("Daisies"), Sabrina ("Manchild"), Lady Gaga ("Disease") and Chappell ("The Subway") in the Best Pop Vocal Performance category.
For sombr, being recognized with a Best New Artist nod by the Recording Academy is a symbol of how far he's come in his career so far.
"I am so proud to be recognized among so many amazing artists that I love and respect," he wrote in a Nov. 6 Instagram post, noting that he has "lived and breathed music" since he was a kid. "This time last year, I was 19, depressed and not knowing where to turn. I wrote all of these songs on my own in my bedroom. Looking back, I am so thankful to everyone who encouraged me to keep going."
For everyone who won big at the 2026 Grammys, keep reading.
