Kelly Osbourne stuns in 60s-inspired sequinned gown while leading British stars at the 2026 Grammy Awards in Los Angeles

Kelly Osbourne made a dazzling entrance at the 2026 Grammy Awards, turning heads with a retro 60s-inspired look.

She joined her mother Sharon, rocker Yungblud, and singer Olivia Dean as some of the standout British stars at LA’s Crypto.com Arena on Sunday evening.

At 41, Kelly paid tribute to her late father Ozzy Osbourne, who was being honored during the ceremony.

She sparkled in a sequinned gown featuring a high neckline and a daring thigh-high slit.

Her black platform heels added height, while a silver sparkly clutch and a platinum blonde bouffant wig completed her vintage-inspired ensemble.

Yungblud and Sharon Osbourne Share a Touching Moment

Rocker Yungblud, 28, showed support for Sharon Osbourne, 73, ahead of the tribute to her late husband.

The musician, born Dominic Richard Harrison, went shirtless under a leather jacket with leopard print accents, highlighting his toned physique.

By his side, girlfriend Jesse Jo Stark impressed in a tight leather dress, and the couple’s chemistry was unmistakable.

Meanwhile, Sharon wore an elegant black gown paired with a sparkling diamond necklace, shielding her eyes behind sunglasses during the emotional evening.

Olivia Dean Shines Among the Nominees

Singer Olivia Dean, 26, who was nominated for Best New Artist, radiated elegance in a black-and-white beaded gown.

Her outfit included an embellished corset, feathered detailing, and a flowing satin skirt with a dramatic train, making her one of the red carpet’s most graceful figures.

FKA Twigs Makes a Bold Statement

FKA Twigs, who secured her first Grammy at the earlier ceremony, embraced avant-garde fashion with a semi-sheer, flower-inspired gown.

A metallic vine-like corset accentuated her figure, paired with nude fishnets and stilettos.

Twigs added a whimsical touch by carrying a flower and a mysterious book, further enhancing her unique style.

A Tearful Tribute to Ozzy Osbourne

The ceremony was especially emotional when Yungblud won Best Rock Performance for his cover of Ozzy Osbourne’s hit Changes, performed at Black Sabbath’s final 2025 concert at Villa Park, Birmingham.

On stage, Yungblud delivered a heartfelt, profanity-laced tribute, describing Ozzy as a guiding influence on his musical and personal identity.

Sharon Osbourne, visibly tearful, watched as Yungblud recalled their final meeting, noting Ozzy’s words: “The music was enough.”

His speech closed with: “God bless Ozzy Osbourne and god bless f*****g rock music!”

Ozzy Osbourne passed away at 76 from heart failure at his Buckinghamshire home on July 22, 2025, making the tribute all the more poignant.
