Bruno Mars was the first pop act to perform at the 2012 Grammy Awards and the second performer overall, following classic rock legend Bruce Springsteen, who opened the show. Mars rocked his way through ‘Runaway Baby’ with a classic, Rat Pack energy. His performance was inspired by another era. But that’s what Mars does so well. He even busted out a golden megaphone mid-set, too.
We’ve got to hand it to Jennifer Hudson: The girl can perform in the face of tragedy better than most. First she performed a stellar National Anthem following the horrific murders of her mother, brother and nephew.
Now, she’s stepping in to pay tribute to Whitney Houston at tonight’s Grammy ceremony — but it hasn’t been easy for the ‘Dream Girls’ star. She broke down in tears several times during rehearsals.
Nicki Minaj is no stranger to fierce, sometimes off-the-wall fashion, but her red carpet ensemble at tonight’s Grammy ceremony is very out there, even for her. Minaj sported a hooded, red silk gown — that looked an awful lot like a scarlet nun’s habit — with beading on the skirt in the shape of a woman’s face. But that wasn’t even the weirdest part.

February 9, 2012 Is it possible for young Sophia Grace to get any cuter? The answer is "yes," because the young YouTube sensation turned things up to a whole new level of adorable by "turning her swag on" in her most recent performance on 'Ellen.' With her cousin/hypegirl Rosie by her side, the duo was informed that they would be handling the red carpet interviews at the Grammy's for Ellen's show just as they did for the AMA's last fall.
While Bruno Mars, Adele, Katy Perry and the rest of the world’s most popular performers celebrate their success inside the Staples Center on Sunday night at the 2012 Grammy Awards, another group of musicians plans to protest outside the arena to express their displeasure at the Recording Academy’s decision to eliminate 31 categories.
With the recent passing of Etta James, it’s only appropriate that the Recording Academy will pay homage to the late R&B icon with a live performance at the 2012 Grammys. It has now been confirmed that Alicia Keys is the songstress who will perform a tribute to Miss Peaches at the show on Feb. 12.
The Grammy Awards is shaping up to be one helluva show! Organizers are now planning to honor the genre of electronica/dance music (or EDM) at the awards ceremony on Feb. 12.
