Some of music’s biggest stars took the stage at the 67th Annual Grammy Awards.
More than 20 musicians performed during the awards show, which was hosted by Trevor Noah at the Crypto.com Arena. The show was broadcast live on CBS television stations and streamed online on Paramount+.
Here’s what to know about who performed during the Grammy Awards.
Stars take the stage
Some of the biggest names in pop music performed on Sunday night, including nominees and award-winners Chappell Roan, Sabrina Carpenter, Billie Eilish and Charli XCX.
Other beloved artists, including Shakira, John Legend and Stevie Wonder appeared. Legend helped open the program and Wonder performed during an all-star tribute to the late Quincy Jones.

The ceremony also featured a surprise performance by The Weeknd, who had shunned the Grammys for years after calling The Recording Academy “corrupt.”
Beyoncé, the most nominated artist in 2025 and in Grammys history, did not perform, but she did finally win Album of the Year on her fifth try. Taylor Swift, who notched six nominations this year, also did not perform, but she did present Beyoncé with the award for Best Country Album.
Performances included In Memoriam, tributes to Los Angeles
The Recording Academy said the awards show would feature “special performances,” including the annual In Memoriam segment, a “star-studded salute to the life and legacy” of producer Quincy Jones, who died in 2024, and touching numbers that celebrate “the spirit of the city of Los Angeles.”
The Recording Academy previously announced that the show would be refocused following the devastating wildfires in Los Angeles. Officials said the flames destroyed thousands of homes, including those of entertainment industry stars. Some lead-up events were canceled.
“The 67th Annual GRAMMY Awards will carry a renewed sense of purpose: raising additional funds to support wildfire relief efforts and honoring the bravery and dedication of first responders who risk their lives to protect ours,” CBS said in a news release.
Performers participating in those segments include “Wicked” star Cynthia Erivo, who performed during the Jones tribute, Coldplay’s Chris Martin, who handled In Memoriam duties, and singer-songwriter Sheryl Crow, who was part of the opening act dedicated to those who lost their homes in the fires.
