Oh my gosh, you guys, I was screaming when I saw Olivia Dean on the Grammy red carpet! She looked absolutely incredible at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles on Sunday. I seriously couldn’t take my eyes off her!

The 26-year-old singer, up for Best New Artist, looked incredibly elegant in a black and white beaded dress from Chanel.

Her dress featured a beautifully decorated corset and feathers, paired with a long, flowing satin skirt and a stunning train.

Olivia styled her long, dark hair in loose waves and accessorized with sparkling diamond earrings and a bracelet.

The singer looked completely calm and confident as she walked down the red carpet, happily posing for the photographers.

This year marks the 68th annual Grammy Awards, and comedian Trevor Noah, known for previously hosting The Daily Show, will be hosting the show for the sixth time in a row.

Sabrina Carpenter, with six nominations for her upcoming 2025 album, Man’s Best Friend, is set to perform at the three-hour show alongside other top musical artists.

Gaga, Justin Bieber and K-pop sensation Rosé will also take the stage.

The Recording Academy added two new awards this year: Best Traditional Country Album and Best Album Cover.

After Beyoncé’s success with her country album, Cowboy Carter, the Recording Academy will now recognize both contemporary and traditional country music as separate categories. This means the ‘Best Country Album’ award will be split into two distinct awards starting at the 2025 ceremony.

According to Recording Academy CEO Harvey Mason Jr., the organization’s main goal is to accurately reflect the interests of the musicians it represents, and these recent changes are designed to do just that.

This means we need to closely listen to our members so our rules stay current with the music industry and help us fairly identify talented creators.

To be considered for nominations in 2026, recordings had to be commercially released in the U.S. between August 31, 2024, and August 30, 2025.

Grammy winners were decided after voting closed on January 5, 2026, following a final round that began on December 12, 2025.

In a statement, Harvey Mason Jr. explained that the Grammy Awards are a chance to celebrate the artists who make the music world so exciting, and this year’s nominees showcase the amazing talent that’s shaping the future of music.

These nominees—ranging from up-and-coming artists to established stars—show just how varied and exciting the music scene is today. I’m really looking forward to celebrating their achievements in the weeks to come.

Taylor Swift, a hugely successful musician famous for her Grammy wins, wasn’t nominated for an award this year, even though she released a new album last year.

Following her Grammy-winning 2024 album, The Tortured Poets Department, the singer is releasing a new album called The Life of a Showgirl, which fans are eagerly awaiting.

She just missed the 2026 deadline by two months because her project, The Life of a Showgirl, came out on October 3, 2025 – which also happened to be her fiancé Travis Kelce’s birthday.
