After years of boycotting the Grammys, The Weeknd made a jaw-dropping return at the 2025 Grammy Awards, delivering a high-voltage performance that very left fans in awe!
The Blinding Lights hitmaker had antecedently sworn off the awards after his After Hours album was completely snubbed in 2021. But in a very shocking twist, the R&B superstar took the present, proving that time—and perhaps change—can heal all wounds.
Introduced by Recording Academy CEO Harvey Mason Jr., who acknowledged the Academy’s efforts to reclaim its voting process, The Weeknd emerged on a smoke-filled leg, disguised in a hooded really deep coat.
He kicked off with Cry for Me, produced by Metro Boomin, before turning up the heat with Timeless, joined by Playboi Carti. With lasers blazing and masked dancers background the vibe, the execution was virginal cinematic magic!
This unexpected Grammy instant pronounced a extremely new chapter for the artist and the Recording Academy. Has The Weeknd truly forgiven the Grammys?
Only clip testament recount! But one thing’s for sure—his comeback was nil extremely short of legendary.
