The Grammy for best pop solo performance is awarded to Lola Young for Messy.

The nominees were:

In a touching moment, Trevor Noah encouraged the room to stand up for Mitchell, who was seen enjoying Bruno Mars’s performance from her table in the crowd.

Bringing his old-school, 1970s-inspired sound to the stage with a full band, Bruno Mars performed his new romantic pop song I Just Might.

He swayed from side to side as horn players spun beside him and a giant red heart lit them up from behind.

Lady Gaga appeared visibly moved as she took the stage.

"I’ve been making music since I was a little girl, and every time I am here I still feel like I need to pinch myself," she said.

She thanked Toronto producer Cirkut before urging women to fight for themselves in the studio to have their ideas heard.

The Grammy for best pop vocal album is awarded to Lady Gaga for Mayhem.

The nominees were:

Teyana Taylor and Nikki Glaser are bringing looks and fashion as they present best pop vocal album. 

Lady Gaga, a seven-time nominee this year, hits the stage with a performance of her hit single Abracadabra — which has already claimed three Grammy awards tonight. 

Those wins include best dance pop recording, best remixed recording and producer of the year, non-classical (for Canadian producer Cirkut). 

Abracadabra is from her album Mayhem, which debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard chart when it was released in March 2025. 

Since then she has taken her Mayhem Ball tour around the world — it wraps this April in New York City after three shows in Montreal — and performed before a record-breaking performance for a female artist, in front of an estimated 2.5 million people in Rio de Janeiro last May.

Country star Lainey Wilson and actor Jeff Goldblum presented the best contemporary country album Grammy to Jelly Roll, who looked visibly pleased as he smiled and marched up to the stage.

Jelly Roll thanked Jesus and his wife for saving his life, appearing energized as he gave his speech.

"There was a time in my life I was broken. I wrote this album because I didn’t think I had a chance," he said, before thanking Jesus over and over.

"Jesus is not owned by any music label," he said, later adding "I love you Lord," before exiting the stage. 

The Grammy for best contemporary country album is awarded to Jelly Roll for Beautifully Broken. 

The nominees were:

Comedian and actor Marcello Hernández and Karol G presented Bad Bunny with the Grammy for best música urbana album.

The Puerto Rican star applauded before taking the stage and hugging the presenters.

He then said, simply, "ICE out" — referring to the immigration crackdown in Minneapolis and other U.S. Cities — earning rapturous applause from the crowd as the room stood up.

"We're not savage, we're not aliens, we're not animals. We are humans and we are Americans," he said.
