Country royalty is officially headed to the Grammys. Reba McEntire, Miranda Lambert, and Lainey Wilson’s hit collaboration “Trailblazer” has been nominated for Best Country Duo/Group Performance at the upcoming 2026 Grammy Awards, and the stars couldn’t be more excited, or grateful. The 2026 Grammy Awards will air live on CBS and stream on Paramount+ February 1, 2026.

McEntire and Wilson took to Instagram to celebrate the news, giving fans a peek at their reactions. McEntire shared a photo from the set of Happy’s Place, where her cast surprised her with a giant congratulatory sign. “Thankful for so many things today,” she wrote, adding that her Happy’s Place family “surprised me with this sign” before the show’s Season 2 premiere. “#Trailblazer is nominated for Best Country Duo/Group Performance with @mirandalambert and @laineywilson at the 2026 #GRAMMYs.”

Wilson couldn’t hide her excitement in a video filmed mid-flight, smiling as she sang a spur-of-the-moment tune about Grammy nominations, and celebrating that she’d “got a few.” Her caption read, “Yeeehawwwww. Somewhere Over Laredo is nominated for Best Country Song and Best Country Solo Performance, and Trailblazer with my sisters @reba and @mirandalambert is nominated for Best Country Duo/Group Performance. Thank you, Lord. Congrats to all of the nominees.”

Fans Are Calling Them “The Queens”

The comments on both posts quickly filled with love and excitement. One fan wrote, “Congratulations to the queens!” while another said, “So happy for you, Reba!!” Others called the news “so deserved,” “amazing,” and “the ultimate country collab.” Wilson’s followers added their own applause, with one writing, “YAS QUEEN!” and another declaring, “This trio is unstoppable.”

For McEntire, Lambert, and Wilson, the nomination caps off a milestone year for each, proof that three generations of country women are continuing to lead the charge. As one fan summed it up perfectly: “Legends supporting legends. Country music needed this.”
