There are other performers as revealed on the Grammy News website like the current nominees Justin Bieber, Diplo, and Skrillex will perform their Grammy-nominated hit "Where Are U Now".  Another performance will be from Album of the Year nominee Chris Stapleton, who will be joined by Grammy winners Gary Clark Jr. and Bonnie Raitt to pay tribute to the legendary B.B. King.  

That is just one of several special tributes planned.  There will also be a special tribute performance to Lionel Richie with a performance salute from Luke Bryan, John Legend, Demi Lovato, and Meghan Trainor, and Richie will take the stage himself as well.  The remaining members of The Eagles (Don Henley, Bernie Leadon, Timothy B. Schmit, and Joe Walsh) will also take the stage as a special tribute to the late Glenn Frey.  Lady Gaga, who is nominated for Best Song with "Til It Happens to You" is reported to perform a seven-minute tribute to David Bowie, who passed away at the beginning of 2016.
