Guide to the 49th Grammy Awards |
Its time to get ready for what many deem ‘music’s biggest night’. The 49th Annual Grammy Awards will be presented from 8 p.m. to 11:30 p.m. EST on Sunday, Feb. 11, broadcast live on CBS from LA to NYC. The show will see awards given in 13 major categories plus honorary tributes will be presented during the telecast. Awards in the remaining 95 categories will be presented in a non-televised ceremony from 4:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. EST.
Mary J. Blige, whose album “The Breakthrough’’ was perhaps the biggest in her career, was nominated for a leading eight Grammy Awards, including R&B album, record and song of the year. The Red Hot Chili Peppers were also multiple nominees, garnering six.
Other multiple nominees were the Dixie Chicks, British newcomer James Blunt, John Mayer, Prince, and the Black Eyed Peas’ will.i.am. The Grammy’s telecast has always been known for some excellent musical moments, reunions and cross-genre jams. That should once again be the case.
As reported by The Gossip Girls, The Police kick off Sunday night’s show with a reunion performance. Rumors are rampant that the trio will announce a world tour on Monday February 12th.
So that you can get ready for the evening, scheduled combined performances will feature John Legend, John Mayer and Corinne Bailey Rae; Smokey Robinson, Lionel Richie and Chris Brown; Shakira and Wyclef Jean; Carrie Underwood and Rascal Flatts. Other acts performing include Christina Aguilera, Beyonce, Mary J. Blige, The Dixie Chicks, Gnarls Barkley, Ludacris, The Red Hot Chili Peppers and Justin Timberlake. |
