The nominations for the upcoming 68th Annual Grammy Awards (taking place February 1 2026 at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles) have just been announced. And our Gaga has truly slayed the board: for this cycle, she’s the second-leading artist with nods across seven major categories, including key “Big Four” fields.
Here are the categories she’s up in:
On October 31st, Lady Gaga and YouTube brought “MAYHEM” to life with an epic Halloween celebration in the hallowed halls of La Paloma in Barcelona, Spain. The night of larger-than-life spiders, skulls, costumes and dancing ended with four lucky fans earning a spot on stage at tonight’s stop on “The MAYHEM Ball” World Tour.
Halloween is more than a holiday—it’s an aesthetic. It’s about finding beauty in the dark and power in the theatrical. Much like the world Lady Gaga has built for over a decade.
It’d be fair to call Andrew Lloyd Webber a Little Monster. On Saturday, the musical theater giant shared a video praising Lady Gaga‘s performance at the O2 Arena in London, calling it a “fabulous” live show, and celebrating a portion of a show reminiscent of Phantom of the Opera.
“I loved the Lady Gaga concert. It was really fabulous. She really knows how to handle an audience. And it was a great evening,” Webber said in a video posted to Instagram. “It was so wonderful, actually, to see somebody really singing live, rather than, as we know, some artists who are really miming to a pre-recorded track. And there was nothing of that.”
Lady Gaga is not moving at a glacial pace! The Oscar and Grammy winner is set to appear in the upcoming sequel to “The Devil Wears Prada,” squeezing in an appearance in the fashion film amid her Mayhem Ball Tour.
After wrapping four sold-out nights at London’s O2 arena, Gaga was spotted by fans in Milan, where the sequel to the hit 2006 comedy starring Meryl Streep, Anne Hathaway, Emily Blunt and Stanley Tucci is currently filming. The “Devil Wears Prada 2″ marks the multi-hyphenate superstar’s first big-screen appearance since “Joker: Folie à Deux.” Earlier this year, Gaga appeared in a cameo role on Netflix’s “Wednesday.” The production pit stop comes before Gaga is due to play Stockholm’s Avicii Arena on Sunday night.
Throughout her career as a pop superstar, Lady Gaga has been nominated for 38 Grammys. She’s won 14 of those, and the singer-songwriter regularly adds to her trophy shelf whenever she has a new project to share.
This time around, for the 2026 ceremony, Gaga’s new album Mayhem is eligible, as are two singles from the project. She will likely end up as one of the most nominated stars and could collect multiple new honors. Gaga even seems like a likely contender for one category she’s never been nominated for in the past, but which seems like it was made specifically for her.
On Monday (Sept. 29), Lady Gaga kicked off her the European leg of The Mayhem Ball at London’s O2 Arena. But even before the 24 shows in 10 cities across eight countries, 2025 is already a milestone year on the road for Mother Monster.
Taking into account the success of the tour’s first North American leg, extensions around the world, and the warm-up shows from earlier in the year, 2025 will be Gaga’s biggest-ever year on tour. According to figures reported to Billboard Boxscore, Lady Gaga’s 27 shows in the United States and Canada brought in $103.4 million and sold 378,000 tickets. That makes it the highest-grossing leg of any Gaga tour, in North America or otherwise.
On Friday, Sept. 26, Gaga posted a sweet Instagram tribute to mark Polansky’s 42nd birthday.
The Grammy winner penned a heartfelt message to Polansky and included three photos of the couple embracing each other. One photo captured a moment between the couple kissing at a farm, with goats watching them.
Lady Gaga is scheduled to appear on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert this coming Monday, September 8, marking her first visit to the program in nearly five years. She is slated to perform during the episode, which will also feature actor Cillian Murphy.
The booking was announced Thursday, less than 24 hours after Gaga abruptly canceled a Miami stop on her Mayhem Ball tour. The singer was forced to pull the show with just minutes before it began due to vocal cord strain that her doctor and vocal coach said carried “significant risk” if she performed.
On Wednesday, Sept. 3, the 39-year-old “Bad Romance” singer announced she had to abruptly cancel her performance just minutes before she was set to take the stage.
“Hi everyone, I am really so so sorry but I need to postpone tonight’s show in Miami,” she posted to Instagram Stories.
Lady Gaga thrilled fans after Netflix released a first look image of her as a mysterious new character in Wednesday Season 2. The superstar, 39, looked striking in an eerie portrait with Thing, the disembodied, personified hand, on her shoulder.
The 14-time Grammy winner is set to make her long-awaited return to the MTV VMAs stage in the forthcoming days as well as make a cameo in the second act of Wednesday’s new season.
