African Stars Shine on the Red Carpet at the 2026 Grammys

African stars made a strong and stylish statement at the 2026 Grammy Awards, celebrating the continent’s growing influence on the global music scene. The night felt even more special with host Trevor Noah, who is South African.

Among the African artists in attendance were Tyla, Ayra Starr, Davido, Angélique Kidjo, and Omah Lay, all of whom were nominated and brought standout fashion to the red carpet. While Burna Boy and Eddy Kenzo were also nominated, they did not attend the ceremony this year.
