You need to calm down.
Grammy producer Ben Winston cheekily shut down rumors that Taylor Swift will perform at the 2026 awards show.
“The only reason people think Taylor might be performing or coming is because HITS decided to print it this week and put it in their HITS List, and it was picked up globally,” Winston told HITS in a recent interview.
“But HITS just totally made that up. And now I am getting asked about it by you, as if it’s a real thing, when it was made up in your office!”
“That really is a full-circle rumor!” Winston added.
Sabrina Carpenter, Olivia Dean, SOMBR, Leon Thomas, and the Marías are among the artists confirmed to perform at the upcoming ceremony on Feb. 1, according to the Recording Academy.
Comedian Trevor Noah will host the event, and Doechii and Harry Styles have been named as presenters.
Swift, meanwhile, wasn’t nominated for any awards at this year’s ceremony because her “The Life of a Showgirl” album didn’t qualify.
The “Lover” songstress, 36, released her 12th studio album on Oct. 3, missing the eligibility period for the 68th annual Grammy Awards, which ran from Aug. 31, 2024, to Aug. 30, 2025.
At the 2025 Grammys, Swift’s “The Tortured Poets Department” album received six nominations, though she left the ceremony empty-handed.
The “Cruel Summer” singer, however, is a 14-time Grammy winner and secured her first win as best new artist at the 50th annual Grammy Awards in 2008.
Despite not being nominated at this year’s show, it’s unclear if Swift will attend.
The “Fate of Ophelia” singer has been busy planning her nuptials to fiancé, Travis Kelce, and has guests already signing NDAs.
Last year, Page Six exclusively revealed Swift and the NFL star’s plans to host a ceremony with family and friends in Rhode Island this summer.
However, we later heard that the A-list couple had considered changing up their plans and were eyeing a venue in Tennessee.
