Ahead of this year’s ceremony, Gaga was one of the leading nominees with seven nods in total, almost all of which were for her 2025 release. Later in the night, she delivered one of the night’s stand-out performances with a slick and show-stopping rendition of Abracadabra.

Mayhem is Gaga’s sixth full-length studio album, topping the charts on both sides of the Atlantic upon its release last year.

She picked up Best Dance Pop Recording for Abracadabra and Best Pop Vocal Album for Mayhem, as well as scoring an additional nomination for the Joker companion album Harlequin in the Best Traditional Pop Vocal Album category.
