The annual Grammy Awards are one of the biggest music events of the year that many musicians and their fans are eager to hear about. No one was surprised by the Big Four categories this year, which comprised some of the greatest names in pop music, Taylor Swift, Beyoncé, Billie Eilish, and Sabrina Carpenter.

However, not every musician at the top of the charts received the kind of acclaim they would have hoped for. After attending several noteworthy award presentations this year for her work in Wicked, Ariana Grande decided to take a backseat and skip the 2025 Grammys, even though she had three nominations.

Ariana Grande has been nominated for three awards this year: Best Pop Vocal Album for Eternal Sunshine, Best Dance Pop Recording for "Yes, And?" and Best Pop Duo/Group Performance for "The Boy Is Mine" with Brandy and Monica. She was unexpectedly excluded from the major categories, including Song of the Year, Record of the Year, and Album of the Year, which led to rumors that she had been overlooked.

When it was announced that Ariana Grande had been snubbed from the most significant Grammy categories, the internet went into a giant collective LOL moment. Everyone on the internet seems to have paused to think about the issue and then decided to turn it into a spectacle worthy of being shared on social media.

As usual, the internet has shown itself to be an odd and erratic place; one minute it is all serious business, and the next it is mocking the snub as if it were an Olympic event. To be honest, it's amazing how quickly the world can transform something so important into a hilarious spectacle.

The moment the news broke, the internet went from zero to "What?!" faster than you can say "Grammy snub." It's almost as if the digital world collectively went, "Wait, Ariana didn't get nominated for Record of the Year? " and then decided to turn the whole thing into a viral roast.

Honestly, the internet is that friend who turns a serious situation into a bit of sarcasm and somehow winds up with a full-blown comedy special. Maybe next time, Ariana should just drop a single called "Sorry, I Didn't Get Nominated," because the internet is ready for it.

Let me walk you through how netizens have reacted regarding the news!


Netizens have reacted as Ariana Grande was snubbed at Grammys 2025

Someone (@bettersoff) posted on X with a hilarious gif that says:

A user (@rosevlusher) commented:

"ariana snubbed again…fork found in the kitchen"

Another netizen (@midninightrain) expressed:

"realizing ariana was snubbed…"

So, the internet did what it does best - half of it went full-on dramatic with a touch of sadness as if it had just lost its best friend at the award show, while the other half turned it into a meme-fueled comedy show. Honestly, it's like the internet had two settings: heartbroken or fully unleashed in meme mode. Then again, one minute it's "How could they?" and the next, Ariana's mug is photoshopped onto the most possible red-carpet moments of the last ten years.

The Grammy snub? Oh well, because if there is one thing that the internet mastersly does right, it's to turn an iota of disappointment into content for everyone.
