Phil Collins Gets Rare Two-Time Inductee Status at Rock & Roll Hall of Fame

Phil Collins, a renowned musician, was one of the few inductees at the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame 2026 induction ceremony, held on November 14. Collins, a member of the duo Genesis, is a rare two-time inductee at the Rock Hall, recognized for the second time alongside his solo career. During the event, Collins was honored by his friend and fellow drummer Travis Barker, and serenaded by actress Cynthia Erivo.

In his acceptance speech, Collins humbly acknowledged being the 29th individual to earn two inductions into the esteemed Rock Hall, wiping away tears offstage during Barker's essay. Despite taking two crutches while taking the stage, Collins reassured the audience that he was not as badly as it appeared. He expressed gratitude towards his manager Robert Plant, Eric Clapton, and many others in the music industry.

Collins also dispelled rumors of him retiring from touring or live performances, promising that his music career would continue. The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony was not live-streamed this year, but fans can watch the broadcast of the event on ABC and Disney+ on December 8. Other inductees for this year include Oasis, Iron Maiden, Wu-Tang Clan, Joy Division/New Order, Sade, Billy Idol, Luther Vandross, and the Early Influence Award went to Fela Kuti, Queen Latifah, MC Lyte, and Gram Parsons.
