Benson Boone jokes his 'moonbeam ice cream' lyrics deserved Grammy nomination after snub

Benson Boone poked fun at himself after receiving a snub from the Grammys.

On Nov. 7, the Recording Academy revealed its 2026 nominees, and Boone didn't make the cut. On Monday, the singer took to his Instagram story to jokingly react to his song, "Mystical Magical," not being nominated for a single category.

"Can’t believe moonbeam ice cream didn’t get a Grammy nom," he said alongside a selfie with his eyes wide. "it’s literally pure lyrical genius," he added of the meme-worthy song.

Boone rose to fame after competing on "American Idol" in 2021. The singer made it to the top 24, but withdrew from the competition before the finale to focus on his own career, even after judge Katy Perry told him he could win the competition singing show.

Comedian Jim Gaffigan revealed in an interview why he's mostly steering clear of politics in his stand-up material these days. Gaffigan told Variety that comedy fans don’t attend stand-up shows to hear lectures. They go to escape the real world and simply laugh at silly jokes.
