This year’s Grammy’s brings exciting news as Beyoncé, who is nominated for several Grammy’s, announced her pregnancy with twins. The Grammy’s brings with it every year an array of various musical talents while the audiences watches to see who gets a turn in the spotlight.
This year, pop star Beyoncé decided to out her news before the rehearsals began for the award show.
On February 1, Beyoncé announced that she is carrying twins on Instagram. The mother-to-be wanted to get the news out about her pregnancy before the awards show so that way the focus would not be on her pregnancy. At the Grammy’s she will be there to represent her latest album ‘Lemonade,’ and doesn’t want to take away from the album’s success and her own performance with her new exciting news.
Beyoncé will be one of the few performing during the Grammy’s and she has been nominated for nine awards.
Justin Bieber, Kanye West and Drake, all of whom are nominated for multiple Grammys, have been rumored to be no shows this year. Drake will be missing the show due to his touring schedule and Bieber has expressed his disdain for award shows in the past.
Late Late Night Show host James Corden will be hosting the Grammys this year. Corden has said that he will not be mocking any artists this year.
“The Grammys are not really a place for comedy. And I’m only in the show for 17 minutes or so, across the four hours. My intention is to make it fun before it’s funny,” he said in an interview with Billboard.
Some of the performers lined up are Chance the Rapper, The Weeknd and Sturgill Simpson.
If you’re looking to find out more about the Grammy’s and find out who else has been nominated in the award show’s many categories, you can find the information on their website, or just wait and watch to find out who has all been nominated and who won.
The show will air on January 12 on CBS.
