Why Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce Didn't Attend the 2026 Grammys
"I am going to be really honest with you,"
"I am so tired when I think about [touring] again because I'd want to do it really well again."
"Swift has attained a level of cultural domination that is simply unprecedented. Of course, we live in a highly fragmented world, but she is that exceedingly rare figure that everyone has to have an opinion about. In 2025, we are all Swifties."
Taylor Swift is absent from 2026 Grammy nominations for the first time since 2017 because The Life of a Showgirl released in October 2025 missed the eligibility cutoff by roughly two months. The 2026 Album of the Year race features Bad Bunny, Justin Bieber, Sabrina Carpenter, Clipse, Lady Gaga, Kendrick Lamar, Leon Thomas, and Tyler, the Creator. Swift and her fiancé, Travis Kelce, are reportedly skipping the ceremony. Swift recently completed a 149-show Eras Tour and released an album that set a Spotify debut record. Observers describe her cultural dominance as unprecedented.
