Taylor Swift, Bad Bunny, and Lady Gaga Land 2026 Emmy Nominations

The 2026 Emmy nominations were announced on Wednesday, July 8, with Taylor Swift, Bad Bunny, and Lady Gaga all making the list. Per Stereogum, this year's nominations include a number of heavyweight names from the pop world, spanning television-related audio and video content.

Background

The Emmys are primarily a television and streaming awards show, so pop artists tend to get nominated for concert specials, documentaries, or crossover screen projects rather than music itself. Swift, Bad Bunny, and Gaga have each put out related audiovisual work in recent years, but which specific categories they're nominated in hasn't been spelled out in what's been reported so far.

The full nominations list is available on the Emmys' official website; a date for the awards ceremony has not yet been announced.
