The Grammys are the biggest night in music, but several stars skipped the 2026 awards show. The Grammys honored some of the music industry's legendary performers and had multiple fan-favorite musicians take the stage. While it was a star-studded evening at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles on Sunday, February 1, there were some notable names missing from the guest list. Ariana Grande was absent from the Grammys despite taking home the win for Best Pop Duo/Group Performance for her Wicked duet with Cynthia Erivo.
