Lady Gaga Seeks Repeat Victory in Pop Solo Category at Upcoming Grammys.
As the 2026 Grammy Awards ceremony approaches, Lady Gaga finds herself locked in a high-stakes battle for another prestigious award: Best Pop Solo Performance. The global superstar's highly anticipated single "Disease," featured on her album Mayhem, has earned her a spot among an elite group of talented artists vying for the coveted prize.
Gaga is now tied with producers Jack Antonoff and Cirkut as the second-most-nominated acts at this year's ceremony, behind only Kendrick Lamar. Among the nominees, Gaga stands out alongside three other female artists: Sabrina Carpenter, Chappell Roan, and newcomer Lola Young. Justin Bieber rounds out the lineup, as he seeks his first Grammy win with "Daisies," the lead single from his surprise album Swag.
Gaga's quest for Best Pop Solo Performance is a rare opportunity to revisit a category she dominated over 15 years ago. In 2019, her hit song "Joanne (Where Do You Think You're Goin'?)" took home the award, marking Gaga's first victory in this field. However, many critics felt that the win was undeserved, given other songs being overlooked.
A repeat win for Gaga would cement her status as one of the most successful artists in pop history. She would tie Ed Sheeran, who has also won twice in this category with "Thinking Out Loud" and "Shape of You." However, Gaga's arch-rival Adele holds the record for the most wins in Best Pop Solo Performance, with a staggering four victories.
Adele became the first back-to-back champion in 2012 and then 2013, with her hit songs "Someone Like You" and "Set Fire to the Rain." More recently, she won again in 2023 with "Easy On Me." Gaga, on the other hand, has a total of four nominations this year, tied with Ariana Grande, Ed Sheeran, Justin Bieber, and Kelly Clarkson.
While "Disease" is her sole nominee for Best Pop Solo Performance, follow-up single "Abracadabra" could secure additional accolades in categories such as Record of the Year or Song of the Year. Additionally, Mayhem may help Gaga win another award in the Best Pop Vocal Album category, marking a long-awaited breakthrough in this field.
The 2026 Grammy Awards ceremony will be broadcast live on CBS on February 1, and the winners will undoubtedly be announced to great fanfare.

but can she bring home that second win 
?
. Gaga's been killing the game for years, but it's always tough to beat the likes of Kendrick Lamar. Do you think she's due for a repeat win, or is this her moment? 
fingers crossed for "disease" tho 
, and it's clear that "Disease" is gonna kill at Best Pop Solo Performance. I mean, she's tied with some heavy hitters like Jack Antonoff and Cirkut - those guys are always on point 
. But Gaga's got this! She's been dominating pop music for years, and it's time to give her the recognition she deserves 
. I'm also rooting for Justin Bieber, his "Daisies" song is so catchy 
. Fingers crossed for a repeat win, and maybe some more Grammys too... Gaga's album Mayhem could bring home that Best Pop Vocal Album award 
. It's crazy to think about how much she's changed as an artist, from Poker Face to Joanne (where do you think you're going?) - the evolution is real 
. Tying with Ariana Grande and Ed Sheeran? That's impressive... for a record label trying to prop up a fading star 
! She's had an epic career so far and it'd be amazing if she took home that Best Pop Solo Performance award again 
I mean, who doesn't love a good underdog story? 
She's got some serious competition from other talented artists like Sabrina Carpenter and Chappell Roan, but Gaga's been doing this for ages - I think she's due for another win 
Lady Gaga is due for some serious recognition after years of dominating the music scene 
. But at the same time, it's gonna be tough competition with Kendrick Lamar and those other talented artists. And can we talk about how underrated some of these newer artists are? Lola Young is a total hidden gem 
. Can't wait for the Grammys to bring all this amazing music together 
. And can we talk about how Gaga's comeback album Mayhem is already breaking records? That girl is a total GOAT 
And let's not forget how good her album Mayhem is – it'd be awesome if she takes home that Best Pop Vocal Album award too
