After the 2026 Grammy nominations were announced Nov. 7, music fans may have wondered why the singer's latest album " The Life of a Showgirl " was completely missing from the list of nods — but don't fret, Swift's absence from the list of nominees wasn't a snub .
Turns out, she simply wasn't eligible this go 'round.
