Lady Gaga won every category that she could at the 2026 Gold Derby Music Awards. The 14-time Grammy Award winner took home Album of the Year for Mayhem and Record of the Year for "Abracadabra," in addition winning Solo Artist of the Year.
In addition to beating out top Grammy rivals like Bad Bunny and Sabrina Carpenter, Gaga took down a favorite from the world of film. The soundtrack for the first Wicked film finished in a distant second for Album of the Year. One of the stars of that film, Ariana Grande, was also up for Solo Artist, but finished well behind Gaga.
Lady Gaga wasn't the only landslide victory of the slate. Girl group Katseye easily won Group of the Year, ahead of Florence and the Machine.
Things were much closer, however, in Best New Artist, where "Man I Need" singer Olivia Dean only beat Addison Rae by 51 points.
