Taylor Swift – Rumored to Be Skipping
Taylor Swift is rumored to be skipping this year as well, and it’s all because of a quote that is circulating.
Grammys executive producer Ben Winston confirmed that the “Cruel Summer” singer won’t be there despite a rumor published by HITS saying otherwise.
Ironically, Winston spoke with HITS to clear up the rumor they started, saying, “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. 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!”
Taylor also didn’t release any music within this year’s eligibility period, with her latest album The Life of the Showgirl releasing over a month after the August 30, 2025 cutoff date.

Travis Kelce – Rumored to Be Skipping
If Taylor Swift is skipping, there’s no chance that Travis Kelce would attend as well.
