The 62nd Annual Grammy Awards Preview


Hosted by Alicia Keys, herself a 15-time Grammy winner, the 2020 Grammy Awards will air live beginning at 8 p.m. ET/PT on CBS. Keys previously hosted last year’s Grammys and she enjoyed it so much that she decided to host again this year.

“At first, I did think last year was a one-time thing, but when the opportunity came back around, there was no question about returning as host of the Grammy Awards,” said Keys in a press release. “Last year was such a powerful experience for me. Not only did I feel the love in the room, but I felt it from around the world, and it confirmed the healing and unifying power of music.”

Keys will be joined on stage by performers Aerosmith and Run-DMC, Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani, Lizzo, Eilish, Ariana Grande, Camilla Cabello, H.E.R., the Jonas Brothers, Rosalia, Tyler, the Creator, and Charlie Wilson. Bonnie Raitt will be on hand to honor Lifetime Achievement Recipient John Prine, while John Legend, Kirk Franklin, DJ Khaled, Meek Mill, Roddy Ricch, and YG will perform a tribute to late rapper Nipsey Hussle.


CBS also recently announced two special segments happening during the 62nd annual awards: An “Old Town Road” all-stars performance with Lil Nas Z, Billy Ray Cyrus, BTS, Diplo, Mason Ramsey, and other surprise guests, then a performance of the song “I Sing the Body Electric” from the movie Fame to recognize the importance of music education in schools. That performance will feature Cabello, Gary Clark Jr., Legend, Debbie Allen, Joshua Bell, Common, Misty Copeland, Lang Lang, Cyndi Lauper, Ben Platt, and the War and Treaty.

“To bring high-caliber artists like Camila Cabello, Cyndi Lauper, Common, Misty Copeland, Debbie Allen, Ben Platt, Gary Clark Jr., Joshua Bell, and Lang Lang together on one stage fulfills a dream of mine,” said longtime Grammy executive producer Ken Ehrlich, who is completing his 40th and final Grammy Awards this year. “To be able to do this on the Grammy stage makes it unforgettable for me.”

Presenters for the awards show include Jim Gaffigan, Trevor Noah, Common, Cynthia Erivo, Dua Lipa, Billy Porter, Smokey Robinson, Shania Twain, Keith Urban, Stevie Wonder, Ava Duvernay, Bebe Rexha, Sharon and Ozzy Osbourne, Brandi Carlile, and Tanya Tucker.

The 62nd annual Grammy Awards air live Sunday, January 26 at 8 p.m. ET/PT on CBS.
