"She leaned on a long black cane while singing, which she at one point picked up and pointed at the audience like a gun. The singer had already taken home two awards leading up to her performance, including dance pop recording and remixed recording. Only minutes after leaving the stage, Gaga won pop vocal album for "Mayhem." Gaga trailed behind only Kendrick Lamar, who led with nine nominations."
""Abracadabra," a lead song on the album, received nominations for song of the year, record of the year and dance pop performance. "Disease," also on the singer's latest album, was up for pop solo performance. Gaga's 2024 album, "Harlequin," was nominated for traditional pop vocal album, which lost to "A Matter of Time" by Laufey. "Mayhem," Gaga's seventh solo studio album, was released in March, a month before the pop star headlined Coachella last year."
"Gaga donned a red and black fur long-sleeve top that flowed into a long black skirt, a cage-like dome concealing her head. Her eye contact hardly wavered during the performance, her eyes often wide as they stared directly into the camera. The camera regularly abruptly panned to her musicians, who held the same wide-eyed stare as Gaga."
Lady Gaga performed a robotic, rock arrangement of Abracadabra at the 68th Grammy Awards with striking visuals including a red-and-black fur top, a cage-like head dome and a long black cane. Her musicians mirrored wide-eyed stares while cameras cut to them. She had eight nominations and had already won awards for dance pop recording and remixed recording; minutes after performing she won pop vocal album for Mayhem. Abracadabra and Disease received major nominations. Harlequin was nominated for traditional pop vocal album but lost to Laufey. Mayhem was released in March before her Coachella headline and anchors her Mayhem Ball tour.
