Gracie Abrams BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.
Gracie Abrams has sustained a remarkable run of career milestones as autumn 2025 gets underway. Most publicly, she was notably absent from the MTV Video Music Awards in Elmont, New York, despite her track I Love You Im Sorry landing a Song of the Year nomination. That trophy ultimately went to Rosé and Bruno Mars for Apt, and according to AOL, Gracie's absence may be down to taking some quiet time after finishing the last leg of her sold-out Secrets of Us Tour in late August. Sources close to the star suggest she is recentering after touring, while her boyfriend, actor Paul Mescal, was busy at the Toronto Film Festival promoting his new movie. The pair remain famously private, with minimal public appearances together, though Abrams did confirm the relationship earlier this summer with an Instagram photo of the two at Glastonbury relaxing in the sun.
Abrams' musical success is a standout story. Her second album, The Secret of Us, opened at number two on the Billboard 200 and produced That's So True, her first top ten single and current anthem, which Rolling Stone recently declared should win Song of the Year at the 68th Grammy Awards. The magazine lauded Abrams for her expanding pop reach, authenticity, and emotional storytelling, especially after her breakout opening set for Taylor Swift. The Grammy predictions stoked lively debate on social media, especially from those suspecting industry favoritism due to her famous parents—director J.J. Abrams and former political aide Katie McGrath—though Rolling Stone insisted her win would be a deserved breakthrough.
Not slowing down despite her recent tour wrap, Gracie surprised fans in Los Angeles by debuting a brand new song, Minibar, alongside her best friend and collaborator, Audrey Hobert, at her hometown show in early August. Their onstage chemistry, born from a friendship stretching back to childhood, is now a defining element of her creative identity, with Hobert co-writing several tracks on The Secret of Us Deluxe. Hobert is also stepping into her own spotlight with a debut album release imminent.
Recognition continues from every corner. Time Magazine just named Gracie Abrams to its TIME100 Next list, spotlighting her as one of 2025's emerging global leaders. Social media reflects that momentum: her Instagram just surpassed 5.4 million followers, with an engagement rate considered excellent by analytics firm HypeAuditor. Her posts—averaging nearly half a million likes—underscore a rare combination of pop appeal and influential authenticity. As the music world awaits Grammy nominations and the artist herself enjoys a momentary pause, the narrative around Gracie Abrams is of a singer-songwriter stepping confidently—and quietly—into pop's upper echelon.
