Benson Boone may have missed scoring a second GRAMMY moment but he’s taking the snub in stride. Last week the 2026 GRAMMY nominees were announced and the former Best New Artist nominee was noticeably absent from any categories. The back flipping pop star hopped on his Instagram Stories with a hilarious selfie, joking, “Can’t believe ‘moonbeam ice cream’ didn’t get a GRAMMY nom,” noting, “it’s literally pure lyrical genius.” The snub came as a shock considering Boone’s album “American Heart” debuted at number two with his single “Mystical Magical” peaking at 17 on the Hot 100.
