Taylor Swift, BTS and Megan Thee Stallion Will Perform at the Grammys

Taylor Swift, Billie Eilish, Dua Lipa, BTS, Harry Styles, Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion will be among the performers at the 63rd annual Grammy Awards next Sunday, in a mix of live and taped appearances shot in downtown Los Angeles, the Recording Academy announced.

The show, hosted by Trevor Noah, will also feature performances by Bad Bunny, Doja Cat, Maren Morris, Roddy Ricch, Post Malone, Lil Baby, DaBaby and others, in a format the academy is describing, with a nod toward coronavirus safety, as artists “coming together, while still safely apart.” Mickey Guyton, the first Black female artist to be nominated for best country solo performance, will take the stage, as well as Black Pumas, the little-known soul band that received three nominations, including record and album of the year.

The show will be broadcast by CBS and on Paramount+, the new streaming platform from the network’s parent company, ViacomCBS, that launched on Thursday, replacing CBS All Access.

One notable absence among this year’s performers: Adele, whose potential appearance has been the subject of fervent speculation by fans online. Ben Winston, the Grammys’ executive producer, said in an interview that Adele would not be involved.

Fans of the British singer have been waiting more than five years for the follow-up to her album “25,” and most recently got their hopes up in October when she hosted “Saturday Night Live” — only to declare in her monologue, “My album’s not finished.” Her label, Columbia, has given no updates on when that album may be ready.
