Winning a Grammy Award is the pinnacle of many musicians’ careers. While artists such as Beyoncé and Jay-Z have broken records with their Grammy wins over the years, others haven’t been awarded just yet.
Several celebrities have been nominated by the Recording Academy over a dozen times but have never walked away with a trophy. Snoop Dogg, for example, once said he was boycotting the Grammys because he was nominated 16 times but never won.
“No need to blow smoke up my [ass]. I’d rather blow some real smoke with my loved ones and count the 17xs I been invited with the same results,” he captioned a cartoon on Instagram in February 2016 that read “Less Grammy … More Grams.” He added: “Shot out to my family that getting it in winning hosting and just showing up for the cause enjoy the festivities my green room open all night not like there’s [sic].”
Other singers, however, feel honored to have been nominated at all. Katy Perry, who has gotten 13 Grammy nods but has no wins, told Capital FM in 2013 that it’s “nice to even be acknowledged” by the Recording Academy.
Keep scrolling to see who else falls into this category:
A surprise? Yeah, we know! Lopez racked up two Grammy nominations over the years but didn’t take home either trophy. In both 2000 and 2001, her songs “Let’s Get Loud” and “Waiting for Tonight,” respectively, were up for Best Dance Recording.
Despite the singer’s impressive vocal chops and chart-topping hits, the “Sorry Not Sorry” singer has never taken home a Grammy. She received her first nomination in 2017 for Best Pop Vocal Album for her 2015 record Confident. Two years later, she earned a nomination for Best Pop Duo/Group Performance for her duet with Christina Aguilera, “Fall in Line.”
The “What Was I Thinkin’” crooner has gone on to drum up 14 Grammy nominations after first being recognized in 2007. However, the country artist sadly has zilch to show for his efforts.
The Icelandic singer earned her first Grammy nomination in 1994 for Best Music Video-Short Form for “Human Behaviour.” Her total nominations sit at 15, but she still has yet to win for her work.
Biggie Smalls was a four-time Grammy nominee before his 1997 assassination. He was recognized for songs like “Big Poppa” in 1996 and his album Life After Death in 1998, but never took home the award.
The Swedish pop group may have a popular musical that incorporates their beloved tracks, but they don’t boast any Grammy wins or nominations under their belt. However, the “Money, Money, Money” group’s song “Dancing Queen” was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame in 2015.
Before his death in 1990, the New York-born artist known for songs like “Candy Man” scored three nods and zero wins. However, in 2001, the Recording Academy gave him a posthumous Lifetime Achievement award during the 2002 ceremony.
Hendrix only earned one Grammy nomination in his musical career within the Best Contemporary Instrumental Performance category for “Star Spangled Banner” in 1970. The nomination occurred ahead of his death that same year. After his passing, his work was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame in both 1999 and 2009. He was also honored with a posthumous Lifetime Achievement Grammy in 1992.
No Grammy, no cry? Marley didn’t earn a single Grammy nomination until 2001, 20 years after his 1981 death. The reggae musician was recognized in the Best Long Form Music Video and Best Music Film categories after being the subject of the documentary Rebel Music: The Bob Marley Story, which was released in 2000. He also became a Grammy Lifetime Achievement recipient in 2001.
The rock singer, who was known for songs such as “Ball and Chain” and “Piece of My Heart,” earned Grammy recognition two years after her 1970 death with a nomination for Best Pop Vocal Performance for “Me and Bobby McGee.” She would later earn a posthumous Lifetime Achievement Grammy in 2005, and her work was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame in 2002 and 2010.
Despite being nominated for 10 Grammys throughout her career, Minaj has yet to take one home. Fans were shocked when the nominations for the 61st annual Grammy Awards were announced in December 2018, as the rapper was snubbed in all categories.
The Australian musician is responsible for writing some of Hollywood’s biggest songs such as Beyoncé’s “Pretty Hurts” and Rihanna’s “Diamonds,” as well as many of her own hit tunes, but still doesn’t have a Grammy. She has been nominated nine times in the past.
Shelton has a slew of country music awards, but is still waiting to hear his name called at the Grammys. His first nod came in 2011 when he was nominated for Best Country Collaboration With Vocals for "Hillbilly Bone" featuring Trace Adkins. He was later nominated for seven more trophies, but has yet to win.
The group, which was led by the late Freddie Mercury, was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and has a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, but never won a Grammy Award, despite being nominated four times throughout their career. In 2004, their hit song “Bohemian Rhapsody” was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame and “We Will Rock You” and “We Are the Champions” followed five years later. Queen was given the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award in 2018.
Despite having 13 nominations, Perry has never won a Grammy. “Of course it would be nice to win, [but] it's nice to even be acknowledged that you could be nominated,” the singer told Capital FM in December 2013.
The late musician is widely known as one of the best rappers of all time. He was nominated for six Grammy Awards, including Best Rap Album in 1996 and 1997, throughout his career, but failed to win any before he was murdered in September 1996.
Ross was given The Recording Academy’s Lifetime Achievement Award in 2012, but never won a standalone Grammy Award, despite having 12 nominations since her first song came out in 1965.
The rapper has been nominated a whopping 16 times, but never took home a trophy from The Recording Academy. Morten Lindberg, a Norwegian sound engineer, is the only person to have more Grammy nominations without a win.
The Backstreet Boys (made up of Nick Carter, AJ McLean, Howie Dorough, Kevin Richardson and Brian Littrell) have eight Grammy nominations to their name, but have yet to win.
Roan, 26, looked epic at the Sunday, February 2, awards show in a winning outfit. Her 2003 Jean Paul Gaultier archival gown featured a fitted bodice equipped with mint-and-yellow tulle and black bow straps that cascaded into a printed ballgown skirt finished with a high-low silhouette. The singer elevated the number with sheer gloves, long gold nails and a feathered headpiece.
In true Chappell Roan style, she donned a full beat including razor thin eyebrows, pale foundation, long lashes and vibrant eyeshadow. Her crimson red mane, which was styled by Dom Forletta using Wavytalk Hot Tools, was worn in a half-up coif.
Roan’s glam team went above and beyond with Roan’s look. Forletta broke down Roan’s hairstyle to Us Weekly, sharing, “The inspiration behind Chappell’s hair tonight was to create something that authentically matched her — but bigger and better. Each product we chose to use was intentional to tie the entire look together and make her stand out on the carpet.”
Stylist Genesis Webb, meanwhile, was busy guarding Roan’s gown over night and told E! that she even slept with the number in her room on Saturday, February 1, to ensure that nothing happened to it.
This year, Roan is set to perform at Music’s Biggest Night, along other stars including Billie Eilish, Charlie XCX, Cynthia Erivo and Sabrina Carpenter.

The pop star, who went viral in 2024, is also nominated for several gramophones, including Best New Artist, Record of the Year, Song of the Year, and Best Pop Solo Performance for her hit, “Good Luck, Babe!” Roan is also up for Album of the Year and Best Pop Vocal Performance for her album, The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Queen.
While it’s her first Grammys, Roan has had plenty of red carpet opportunities (and performances) to show off her personal style.
In September 2024, she looked as cool as ever in a Y/PROJECT gown featuring a plunging neckline and a sheer silhouette. While posing for photographers, she wore a mint Palace Costume and Prop Co. cape, which she later took off to draw attention to her Soma Faitanin neckties and her chain Juniper Rose gloves. Roan teamed her look with a long pointy manicure and a statement cross necklace.
Roan again slayed at Olivia Rodrigo’s Guts World Tour movie premiere in a red frock that was embellished with florals and a thigh-high slit. Here’s to Roan’s winning sartorial debut on the 2025 Grammys red carpet!
Kim Kardashian is proving once again that she’s a chameleon when it comes to personal style.
“Love this new chop on Kim, we got 7 inches off her hair!” stylist Chris Appleton shared via Instagram on Sunday, February 2, along with a photo of the high-powered entrepreneur showcasing her fresh new look.
“(No it’s not a wig before u start lol),” the celebrity stylist continued in the caption. “To style we opt for an iconic Deep side part Tom Ford Gucci 96 inspired.”
Kardashian, 44, also shared photos of her new look via her Instagram Story on Sunday. In the photos, the reality television star also rocks a stunning, all-black, backless halter dress. The Balmian couture crocodile dress hugged Kardashian’s figure, featured a healthy dose of side-cleavage and showed off the influencer’s midsection.
“Congrats @emmagrde on such a special night raising money to support victims of the Altadena fire and support Black entrepreneurs and businesses @15percentpledge,” Kardashian wrote on one of the pictures, letting her fans and followers know that she was showcasing her new look for a good cause.
Of course, her recent cut is far from the first time Kardashian has debuted a dramatic hair switch-up. Back in August 2024 the mom of four showed off her fiery red new hair, which almost tricked fans who assumed she was simply wearing a wig. (In other words, stylist Appleton knows what he’s doing when he’s squashing wig rumors early.)
In photos shared via Instagram Story at the time, Kardashian wore her new red hair straight, with her (much longer) trusses pushed back behind her shoulders.

And back in 2022, Kardashian gave fans a look at how “tedious” a process it can be when trying to dye your hair the perfect color for an event as grand as the Met Gala.
“This hair dying process is so tedious and annoying. We don’t have a shampoo bowl, so we have to rinse it a million times. It is what it is,” Kardashian said at the time, adding that it took nearly two days to get her hair just right for her Marilyn Monroe-inspired look.
“It has to be the right color [and] my hair can’t fall out,” she continued. “We have to get it right because we have one day to dye it, so we are going to be up for the next 15 hours just dying it.”
Katy Perry is looking back on her 2015 Super Bowl performance with nothing but love.
Perry, 40, shared a series of photos from the big day nearly 10 years ago on Instagram, captioning the carousel, “Happy 10 year anniversary Super Bowl XLIX I will never forgive you, Left Shark.” Perry also took the opportunity to plug her upcoming Lifetimes tour. “Excited to do it all again on #THELIFETIMESTOUR!!!” she added.
Perry was confirmed as a performer at Super Bowl XLIX in November 2014. To kick off the show, the singer rode out onto the field during halftime show atop a giant prism metal tiger and immediately began singing her hit single, “Roar.”
She was soon joined by Lenny Kravitz, who played guitar during “Dark Horse” and “I Kissed a Girl.”
Perry was also joined onstage by a pair of sharks, one of whom went viral for his own, um, unique performance that night. As the notorious “Left Shark” later explained to NPR, “So there’s a set choreography. There’s also what’s called freestyle choreography, or, like, you get to move around or play your character as a dancer.”
The shark, real name Bryan Gaw and one of Perry’s longtime back-up dancers at the time, added that he intentionally danced in a funny way to take advantage of the moment. “I’m in a 7-foot blue shark costume. There’s no cool in that. So what’s the other option? Well, I’m gonna play a different character,” Gaw explained.
RJ Durell, Perry’s choreographer at the time, also spoke to Entertainment Tonight about the performance. “The sharks were given two main objectives. One, perform Katy’s trademark moves to the ‘Teenage Dream’ chorus, which they both did perfectly; and two, to have loads of fun, and bring to life these characters in a cartoon manner, giving them a Tweedledee/Tweedledum-type persona,” he said.
“Clearly, that was portrayed with the overzealous shark on the right hitting precise dance moves, while the left shark was playing up the more goofy, fun-spirited sports-fan mascot type, who was just happy to be at the Super Bowl.”
Perry announced her first tour in seven years on Monday, January 27. Tickets for the U.S. leg of the tour went on sale on Friday, January 31, and the tour will begin on May 7 in Houston, Texas.
The singer will briefly pause the U.S. part of the tour to head to Australia in June before she returns for July shows in Arizona and California. Her seventh studio album, 143, was released in September 2024.
