Ariana Grande couldn’t be happier for Teyana Taylor‘s best supporting actress nomination at the 2026 Golden Globes — and vice versa.
As revealed Wednesday (Dec. 17) on Taylor’s Instagram Story, the Wicked star sent her a vibrant bouquet of flowers and a sweet note in honor of the two women earning recognition in the same category ahead of next year’s awards. “Hi and congratulations on this well, well deserved moment and nomination!” Grande wrote. “I’m so honored to be in your company in this moment!”
Gushing that she “absolutely loved” Taylor’s performance in One Battle After Another, Grande added, “I’m so excited to tell you more in person but I just wanted to say you are so brilliant and I’m so excited to share this moment and nomination with you.”
Posting a photo of the gift on her Story, Taylor wrote, “This is so sweet @arianagrande, Thank you.”
“Your message made this moment even more special for me,” the entertainer continued. “I’m so honored to share this space with you as well, and I’m deeply grateful for your kindness and support.”
Taylor and Grande are competing against Emily Blunt, Elle Fanning, Inga Ibsdotter Lilleaas and Amy Madigan for best performance by a female actress in a supporting role in any motion picture. The R.E.M Beauty founder is nominated in the category for the second year in a row thanks to her portrayal of Glinda in the Wicked films, about which she recently wrote on Instagram, “i’m so moved and grateful, there are truly no words.”
Grande also isn’t the only star who had rave reviews for Taylor after the premiere of One Battle After Another, which also starred Leonardo DiCaprio. On The Tonight Show in October, one Taylor Swift praised the film, telling Jimmy Fallon, “Chase Infiniti, Teyana Taylor — how are they gonna split the Oscar in half?”
