Justin Bieber rarely gets a look-in from the Grammy committee, but his gargantuan success with comeback LP ‘Purpose’ appears to have changed all of that.

For, it has just been announced that the Pop pin-up will take to the stage at the 2016 instalment of music’s biggest calendar night.

And he’s not the only one.

Details below…

Confirmation that the ‘Sorry’ singer’s performance at the February 15th ceremony came courtesy of the committee, who just tweeted:

They also revealed that party-starter Pitbull has been tapped for the Staples Center spectacle:

The duo join previously announced performers Adele, Kendrick Lamar, The Weeknd, and Little Big Town. Rihanna and Lady Gaga have also been touted as having some involvement with the show too.

*****************

Fingers crossed some actual stage slayers are commissioned before Feb 15th (or at least have Gaga firmly confirmed). It’s a cute line-up, but for a show billed as the “biggest night in music,” it needs more.

    Ok Justin kill it..no one really expects you too.one thing for certain though beliebers everywhere will be tuned in smart Grammies.

  2. King Mark111 /.\ January 24, 2016

    Calling Beliebers, tune in for us to get ratings, but your fave isn’t taking home any awards. Grammy love to have the pop acts perform, yet send them home empty handed.

    • RASHAD January 24, 2016

      Yep. Justin, Katy, & Nicki know this all to well about going home empty handed! It just like how the Oscars always nominate Leo, Brad, Johnny, & Will but they never give those pretty boys nothing!

    • LB January 24, 2016

      Hahahaha, so true

  3. RASHAD January 24, 2016

    Justin…. Boo!
    Pit Bull… He has good energy when he performs, but I feel like he has made a song 100 times!

  4. LB January 24, 2016

    Is Katy, Lana or Onika finally winning a Grammy this year? Or are they still competing for president of the Grammyless committee?

    Bieber always thinks he killing it on stage when really he doesn’t. Only one performance that stood out by him that I remember is the one with him and Usher and Jaden Smith.
    Pitbull is always fun. He wears the same thing and raps he same thing but he brings the party with him all the time on stage.

    One of these days these award shows will recognize talent and put up artists like Tinashe, Jazmine Sullivan, and many others more on the stage.

    • Dev January 24, 2016

      Okay, i was with you until i saw Tinashe. Jasmine yes but Tinashe not so much but i respect your opinion.

  6. ?Queen Molly? January 24, 2016

    Awesome he put out the best album last year

    • Skyfall January 24, 2016

      I spy with my eye..a LIE

      • What now January 24, 2016

        RITE! His album was cute, but far from solid and even further away from the best.

  7. LB January 24, 2016

    The Grammy need to get Monica on here because Code Red slayed my entire existence. Her best since The boy is mine.

    Unbreakable also slayed my entire year last year, yasss gawd.

    And lastly I listened to Never say never the other day and the way the album was put together is incredible, you could listen to it from start to finish without skipping a song. Brandy needs to go back to that.

  8. LB January 24, 2016

    All men lie, Alone in your heart, Ocean of tears, Anchor >>>>>

    • Rebecca S for Queen Bey, Princess Rih, & R&B Legend Monica January 24, 2016

      You gonna get you and her fkd up, fkd up, FKD UP!..”All Men Lie. Yes LB!

    • King Mark111 /.\ January 24, 2016

      Love Ain’t Enough h**! lol Say My Name, Code Red, Saint And Sinners, and Suga. But the album is good tho and even I said her best since Boy Is Mine. People are sleeping!

      • Rebecca S for Queen Bey, Princess Rih, & R&B Legend Monica January 24, 2016

        Gentleman you’re both forgetting “I know”, i’m in love with that song.

      • LmfaoHoe January 24, 2016

        I love the album but I felt more connected to Still Standing. That album was amazing too.

  9. ?Queen Molly? January 24, 2016

    Super excited for bieber ????????? #LuhUDaddy

  10. Meteorite January 24, 2016

    I hope Christina Aguilera or Jazmine Sullivan take the stage?

  11. ???Chile, leave my weave at the door and don’t steal it like those broke ass barb stans??? January 24, 2016

    Beiber? Oh no! Alright, everyone! Prepare your ears for that horrible ass lip syncing and live vocal combination. I’m not here for it!

  12. ???Chile, leave my weave at the door and don’t steal it like those broke ass barb stans??? January 24, 2016

    Oh, and Pitbull got a nice, phat big booty…and his d*** STAYS hard in those tight ass pants he loves to wear. I’m ready for that thick Cuban man to show off those goods again.

  13. Skyfall January 24, 2016

    Justin performance will be mediocre at best, a left over CB performance he pulled from the lost files….. I wonder if he’ll be singing live?

  14. Rebecca S for Queen Bey, Princess Rih, & R&B Legend Monica January 24, 2016

    I’m really just looking forward to Rih, Lady Gaga, and Adele. Also hopefully they’ll have a Natalie Cole tribute.

    • Skyfall January 24, 2016

      YESS!!! I know they’ll have a David tribute, so Nicole should be honored as well. Also I hope Adele Doesn’t perform When We Were Young.

      • Rebecca S for Queen Bey, Princess Rih, & R&B Legend Monica January 24, 2016

        Really, I love “When we were young”, Reminds me of that ex we all still love :/ 🙂

      • Skyfall January 24, 2016

        I mean I ike the song, but this is the Grammys. I won’t her to perform something like “I Miss You” or “Remedy” or “All I Ask”

  15. Skyfall January 24, 2016

    I Tamar finally wins a grammy.

    • Rebecca S for Queen Bey, Princess Rih, & R&B Legend Monica January 24, 2016

      Yes, I absolutely love Tamar, so underrated, and under appreciated.

  16. Zayn Malik Army January 24, 2016

    not molly flip flopping to Justin now. kiii

  17. Dev January 24, 2016

    These grammy heifers just want ratings. I wonder if they’re going to adorn him with a grammy on the night.
    Justin isn’t a good live performer but do yo thang i guess.
    These grammy’s are giving me Oscar vibes… no reason to tune in.

  18. PinkPrintPlaque January 24, 2016

    So it’s safe to say that Nicki will NEVER be asked to perform again because of that 2012 stunt she pulled…..smh#Racistcommitee

  19. Authentic January 24, 2016

    Why won’t they showcase the nominees too!!! Like WTF … Show the world the people who are winning these awards…..

  20. Christain January 24, 2016

  21. xedos January 24, 2016

    why pitbull with all the people who release music this year?

    • LmfaoHoe January 24, 2016

      Popularity contest.

  22. HailBeysus January 24, 2016

    Lol the shade!! Anyways, the only pop stage slayers for me are Queen Bey Queen of Live Performances, Bruno Mars and Rihanna (she’s proven she has a hell of alot of potential) Id throw Lady Gaga in their as well. Everyone else is blah….

  23. Beyonce wins January 24, 2016

    We never have artist like jazmine fantasia, chrisette Michelle, will they ever have the platform like the Grammy’s… Where is the diversity, all I see is mainstream artist, more Monica has a new album out, brandy & k Michelle has a single out… Man they don’t give a f*** about r&b, tyrese, tank..

    • OMG Logic!!! January 24, 2016

      STFU! If Black people were more over represented at the Grammys, we’d be confusing them with the NBA and NFL.

  24. beykim loves bieber one direction beyonce miley and gaga January 24, 2016

    Yeah Justin Bieberbae is

  25. Jamie January 24, 2016

    Wow!!!

  26. Authentic January 24, 2016

    Y’all can keep the white guys… I’m all about my Chocalate & Caramel ?? I got a sweet tuth… The kardashians know what’s up Lowkey ?

  27. OMG Logic!!! January 24, 2016

    Who sent for these basics? I don’t need this trash polluting the prestigious Grammys. Good thing I won’t be tuning in.

    • ???Chile, leave my weave at the door and don’t steal it like those broke ass barb stans??? January 24, 2016

      You won’t be tuning in? Hun, I’m surprised as hell. Will you tune in to the Oscar’s, though? Lol! Girl, I swear I make myself kii.

  28. Beyonce wins January 24, 2016

    Jada should boycott the Grammy performances…. How much y’all want to bet that the grammys will have Adele Megan trainor. & Yolanda Adams do a Natalie Cole tribute..what happen to the days when they actually announced the r&b winners during the live broadcast, what happen to the days when they bring out Patti and Diana out on the same stage, what happen to the days when they awarded a tie between two nominees .. Check YouTube.. All the history is there… I’m not racist at all, I love Adele Sam smith. Macklemore, green day, gaga, Madonna, Taylor & countless other white artist… But face we will never get back to the days where the Grammy’s are fully diverse, I don’t always want to see bey jay rih Alicia usher, Jennifer Hudson, leave or to the Grammy voting members, they are the only black artist they know.. I’m tired of turnin on my local radio just to here 95% of rap artist,, radio one and Cathy Hughes needs a revamp… They just did a smash or pass on o Michelle and brandy new singles… But they don’t do that s*** to bet or rih new singles,they automatically play it and we learn to love it, I just want all artist to have an equal platform white and black… But bey rih or kanye won’t boycott that s***, hell they never attend the soul train or image awards, NAACP, lady of soul,oh wait only when they are honored

  29. Barb-wire January 25, 2016
