\n\tMost of the nominees in marque categories on the 68th annual Grammy Awards<\/a> are set to appear on the show, as either performers or presenters, but there are a few surprising exceptions.<\/p>\n

\n\tBad Bunny<\/a> and Kendrick Lamar<\/a>, who are widely seen as the top two candidates for album of the year, don\u2019t have official roles on the show. Neither do SZA<\/a>, Lamar\u2019s duet partner on \u201cLuther,\u201d a record and song of the year nominee; Grammy mainstay Billie Eilish<\/a>, whose \u201cWildflower\u201d is also a record and song of the year nominee; or HUNTR\/X<\/a>, who had a global smash with \u201cGolden,\u201d a song of the year nominee. Every other nominee in a so-called Big Four category (album, record and song of the year plus best new artist) will either present or perform on the show.<\/p>\n

\n\tWhile Bunny and Lamar have no official roles on the show, their genres will be represented. Latin superstar Karol G is set to present. Representing hip-hop, Clipse and Pharrell Williams, and Tyler, The Creator will perform, while Doechii, Q-Tip and female rap pioneer (and 2005 Grammy host) Queen Latifah will present.<\/p>\n

\n\tCountry, which often is MIA in the nominations in the top categories, will also be represented on the show. Brandy Clark, Lukas Nelson and Reba McEntire will perform in the In Memoriam segment. Lainey Wilson has been enlisted to present. Wilson performed on last year\u2019s telecast in the tribute to the late Quincy Jones.<\/p>\n

\n\tJust three artists who performed on the 2025 Grammy telecast are returning to perform again this year: Sabrina Carpenter<\/a>, who sang a medley of \u201cEspresso\u201d and \u201cPlease Please Please\u201d on last year\u2019s show, and Bruno Mars<\/a> and Lady Gaga<\/a>, who teamed last year for a rendition of The Mamas & The Papas\u2019 \u201cCalifornia Dreamin\u2019\u201d to honor those affected by the wildfires that devastated the L.A. region. They\u2019ll perform separately this year. Mars is expected to perform \u201cAPT.\u201d with ROS\u00c9<\/a>, who was announced as a performer Thursday, though he hasn\u2019t been confirmed. Mars is in a position to make history on this year\u2019s show; if \u201cAPT.\u201d wins record of the year, he\u2019ll become the first four-time winner in the history of the category. He is currently tied with Paul Simon with three wins each.<\/p>\n

\n\tThree past album of the year winners will appear on the telecast. Carole King<\/a>, who won in that category in 1972 for Tapestry, and Harry Styles<\/a>, who won in 2023 for Harry\u2019s House, will both present. Ms. Lauryn Hill<\/a>, who won in 1999 for The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill, will perform in tribute to two artists who died last year, Roberta Flack and D\u2019Angelo. Hill\u2019s group, Fugees, had had a Grammy-winning smash in 1996 with a remake of Flack\u2019s 1973 classic \u201cKilling Me Softly With His Song.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tWhile \u201cGolden\u201d will not be performed on the Grammy telecast, it will be performed on the Oscar telecast on March 15, it was revealed Thursday. Raj Kapoor is among the executive producers of both shows.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe 68th annual Grammy Awards will air live on Sunday, Feb. 1, at 8 p.m. ET\/5 p.m. PT on CBS and will be available to stream live and on demand on Paramount+<\/a>. Trevor Noah<\/a> is set to host the show again; it will be his sixth consecutive time helming, and also his final show as host. The former Daily Show host will be the first person to host six straight Grammys<\/a> since singer Andy Williams led the first seven live telecasts in the 1970s. Two other comedians are set as presenters: Nikki Glaser, who has hosted the Golden Globes the last two years, and SNL regular Marcello Hern\u00e1ndez.<\/p>\n

\n\tNoah will also executive produce the telecast for Fulwell Entertainment with returning executive producers Ben Winston, Kapoor and Jesse Collins.<\/p>\n

\n\tIt is understood that all of the performers and all but one of the presenters have been announced. The Recording Academy promises that \u201can additional surprise presenter\u201d will be revealed on Grammy night.<\/p>\n
