The Flames 2026: Discover all the winners of the 4th awards ceremony

Who destroyed Shay and Tiakola, Flammes stars in 2025? Aya Nakamura, perhaps? No. Despite being well-positioned, the queen of France ultimately saw the crown placed on the head of the other moment’s “queen” Theodora, on Thursday, April 23, the date of the fourth edition of the ceremony dedicated to popular cultures. Already distinguished with the title of female revelation last year, where she dedicated her prize “to all the slightly weird black girls,” now nicknamed Miss Kitoko has won no less than five awards out of the seven for which she was nominated. “I am very happy to have confirmed,” she breathed, before adding: “Since I received the award for female artist of the year, I think it’s important to talk about it. If you ever feel alone, if you are in a complicated situation with complicated guys, don’t forget that you are not alone. If people raise their hands on you, you are not alone. Don’t forget that you can leave, that the door is open.”

In the men’s category, tension was also palpable. While heavyweight players in the industry like Jul, Ninho, and Hamza were nominated, it was the star of playgrounds, GIMS, who received the prestigious award for male artist of the year. A prize he notably dedicated to all the children and parents who listen to him.

Distributed in 19 categories, the nominations resulted from the votes of approximately 810,000 people, a record according to the organizers. They were combined with those of the jury and professional panels in some categories to determine the winners. With the Flammes 2026 ceremony wrapped up, discover below the complete list of winners.
