Ariana not attending Grammy's after disagreements with show producers

Recommended Posts

Quote

Due to a disagreement with Grammy producers over which songs she would perform, Ariana Grande, who has been featured on billboards promoting the show all over Los Angeles, not only won’t be performing at the Feb. 10 show, she will not even be attending it, according to sources close to the situation.

An insider tells Variety that Grande felt “insulted” after producers initially refused to allow her to perform “7 Rings,” the latest single from her forthcoming album “Thank U, Next” (which arrives Friday, two days before the Grammys). A comprise was reached whereby “7 Rings” would be part of a medley, but Grande pulled out after producers insisted that the second song be of their choosing. The source added that such stipulations were not imposed on other performers at the show. Reps for the Grammys did not immediately respond to Variety‘s requests for comment.

The situation is more than a little similar to the impasse the Grammys reached with Lorde last year, whereby they declined to let her perform a song from her “Melodrama” album — one of the five Album of the Year nominees — and instead offered her a spot during the show’s Tom Petty tribute, which she declined.

What else would they wanted her to perform? laughcry1 It's her current single, why wouldn't she want to perform it? Make it make sense Grammy's.

I think for the Grammy's it makes a little more sense to perform something that's nominated – at least sing something from the album that's nominated.

Singers perform their current singles at the Grammy's all the time. Many even premiere new singles at the Grammy's. Katy and Gaga pop up in my mind for example.
