The 68th Grammy Awards on Sunday featured a mix of styles, with a few unexpected moments, including one from Justin Bieber. Bieber delivered a memorable performance, returning to the Grammy stage for the first time in four years in a look that caught everyone’s attention. Instead of the usual formal outfit, he walked onstage wearing shorts and socks.

Bieber performed his song Yukon in a bare setting. On the stage, there were no dancers, background visuals, or large production effects. He was alone.

Cameras frequently showed his wife, Hailey Bieber, in the audience during the performance. This highlighted her presence and support during the performance. Fans quickly picked her reaction and shared clips across social media.

The performance carried extra meaning because of Bieber’s recent health history. In 2022, he paused his Justice World Tour after facing health challenges related to Ramsay Hunt syndrome. Since then, he has kept a low profile.

Yukon appears on his 2025 album Swag, which earned several Grammy nominations this year. Bieber also received nominations for Album of the Year, Best Pop Vocal Album, Best R& B Performance, and Best Pop Solo Performance.

After the show, reactions poured in online. Some praised his vocal control. Others focused on the emotion of seeing him perform again after many years.

 

The 68th Grammy Awards took place on Sunday, February 1, 2026, at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles, where 86 awards were handed out to artists, producers, rising stars, and songwriters who delivered outstanding performances in the music industry over the past year. The event was hosted by Trevor Noah.

Billie Eilish, a multi-Grammy winner, took home Song of the Year for “Hit Me Hard” and her album track “Wildflower.” Lady Gaga won Best Pop Vocal Album for her 2025 pop opus Mayhem.

Catherine O’Hara built a decades-long career in character comedy. Her timing and facial control was deliberate. For more than five decades, she shaped some of the widely recognized characters in modern film and television, across satire, absurd comedy, and drama.

The Canadian-American actress and comedian died on January 30, 2026, at age 71 following a brief illness, according to her representatives. Her passing marks the loss of a distinctive comedic performer whose work balanced theatricality with emotional realism.

Born on March 4, 1954, in Toronto, O’Hara began in Toronto’s improv scene. She joined The Second City at a young age, a well-known improv institution. There, she developed the a character-driven approach. Her breakthrough arrived with SCTV, the cult sketch series that launched several careers. O’Hara stood out for her wide range. One moment she was playing a melodramatic soap actress, the next a hilariously mundane suburban mother Her timing was consistent.

Hollywood soon followed. To many audiences, she became widely recognizable as Kate McCallister in Home Alone the frantic, determined mother racing across continents to reach her child. The performance anchored the film emotionally and helped establish it as a holiday classic. She brought similar comic energy to Tim Burton’s Beetlejuice, crafting a portrait of eccentric domesticity that remains popular and lent her voice to animated classics like The Nightmare Before Christmas. In Christopher Guest’s mockumentaries. Waiting for Guffman, Best in Show, and A Mighty Wind she worked extensively in improvised mockumentaries sculpting characters that were detailed and character-specific.

Later, she reached a new audience. As Moira Rose on Schitt’s Creek, O’Hara created a character that was highly theatrical, sculptural wigs, ornate diction, and a wardrobe that seemed to exist in its own universe. The character also showed vulnerability and fierce maternal loyalty. The role earned her an Emmy, a Golden Globe, and a Screen Actors Guild Award, and received widespread attention.

Even in her seventies, she continued working, appearing in streaming series and high-profile productions that included dramatic roles. Off-screen, O’Hara kept her personal life private. She married production designer Bo Welch in 1992, and the couple raised two sons while maintaining long careers in the industry. Colleagues frequently described her as generous, sharp, and collaborative.

Her legacy rested in her careful performance choices. The timing of a line, the subtle reaction that lingered longer than words, the ability to make supporting roles stand out. She emphasized careful performance over showiness. Over decades, she built a body of work defined by deliberate character choices a consistency that made her work enduring.
