The 2026 Grammy Award nominees have been announced, and while many artists are thrilled to be on the coveted list, others are stunned to have been left out. Despite being among the most successful musicians of the year, The Weeknd, Lorde, and several others are among the biggest snubs in the Grammys 2026 nominations. The Weeknd, who had a highly successful 2025 with hits like 'Timeless,' was overlooked for nominations in major categories, including Album of the Year and Best Pop Vocal Album, despite being a top contender. The singer's fans expressed surprise and disappointment on social media, citing his commercial success and chart-topping songs. Lorde, a Grammy winner in 2014 for her song 'Royals,' also failed to make the cut, despite the success of her fourth album, 'Solar Power.' The singer's devoted fan base is left wondering why she wasn't recognized for her hard work and dedication to her craft. Other notable snubs include Benson Boone, who was nominated for Best New Artist in 2025 but didn't receive a single nomination this year; Elton John and Brandi Carlile, who were expected to be major contenders but were only nominated for Best Traditional Pop Vocal Album; and Role Model, whose single 'Sally, When the Wine Runs Out' was a huge success in 2025 but didn't earn him a single Grammy nod. The 2026 Grammy Awards will take place on February 1 live on CBS and Paramount from the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles. The ceremony promises to be an exciting celebration of music, but for these artists and their fans, the snubs will be a sore topic of discussion.
