Duetti Celebrates the Grammys 2026

by Julia Melim February 5, 2026
written by Julia Melim

Duetti celebrated The 68th Grammy Awards that took place in Los Angeles, bringing out a crowd at the Hollywood Roosevelt. Music industry’s highest honor brought out new artists dancing to DJ sets by NOODLES & KITTYSAYWORD.

The Grammys made history this year when Bad Bunny took home Best Album of the Year as the first Spanish language album to win the honor for “Debi Tirar Más Fotos.” It is a great year for Latinos – celebrating Bad Bunny win with heart and soul, while embracing his true identity.

The song alludes to his relationship with his grandfather and his Puerto Rico heritage, meaning that we should take more pictures of those moments so we don’t miss them. It’s a bittersweet song, nostalgic of his time growing up in Puerto Rico and at the same time, not wanting to take photos to be present in the moment.

The TikTok community across the US had their voices heard, with millions of votes cast, and were thrilled to recognize the winners of the TikTok Awards US 2025. In one of the evening’s most exciting surprises, Mr. Fantasy emerged from the audience, taking the mic with his signature eccentric charm before inviting a fan to collab with him onstage.

Across the night, the Palladium turned into a living FYP for the audience in the room:

  • Labubu Cannon sent plush collectibles soaring into the crowd, triggering full-room FOMO and playful chaos.
  • Creator Collab Cam paired unexpected creator duos for spontaneous selfie linkups.
  • FYP Food Drop delivered 2025’s biggest food trends directly to creators’ hands, spotlighting the dishes that dominated TikTok this year.
