Justin Bieber surprised everyone with his barely-there look while performing at the 2026 Grammys. Grammys executive producer Ben Winston opened up about Bieber's performance at the awards show during a Monday, February 2, episode of Rolling Stone's "Music Now" podcast. "I don't think he decided what the outfit would be until he walked on stage," Winston said of Bieber's look, which included nothing but his boxers and socks. When Bieber, 31, rehearsed for the show, Winston explained that the singer wasn't saying, "This is what I'm going to do." "When we had reached out to him about his creative, he was just like, I'm just going to get on stage and sing," Winston explained, noting that Bieber barely used his allotted time to rehearse.

You happy with it?'" Winston recalled. "And I was like, 'Oh, my God. It looked beautiful. I loved it.' And he went, 'OK, fantastic. See you Sunday!'" Winston also shared that he asked Bieber to run through his performance a second time so camera operators knew where to set up. "It was what he wanted to do," Winston explained, noting that many performers opt for backup singers and dancers. "It was all him. It was a career-defining moment for him. It was so different to what we've seen over the years." At the Grammys, which took place on Sunday, February 1, at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles, Bieber took the stage solo and sang his hit "Yukon" from his album Swag. After Bieber left the stage, host Trevor Noah called his performance "captivating."

While he didn't take home any trophies this year, Bieber already owns two Grammys, which he was awarded in 2016 for Best Dance/Electronic Recording for "Where Are Ü Now" with Jack Ü and in 2021 for Best Country Duo/Group Performance for "10,000 Hours" with Dan + Shay. While he went nearly nude for his performance, the singer looked sharp in an all-black outfit while getting his photograph taken with wife Hailey Bieber. He wore a black shirt underneath an oversized double-breasted blazer. Justin styled his look with baggy pants and polished dress shoes. Justin tied his look together with a diamond chain necklace, huggie earrings and a silver nose ring.
