Beyonce to perform at the Grammy Awards

Though the WGA writer’s strike could take their fight to the upcoming Grammy Awards, Beyonce and The Foo Fighters won’t stop the music. Access has learned the R&B superstar and the rock band will be attending the Grammys regardless of the possible strike.

‘The work of The Recording Academy is vital to the music industry, and we have every intention of being with the entire music community to celebrate the Grammys’ 50th birthday in February. Beyonce, as well as my other artists Solange and Trinitee 5:7, have been asked to participate and will do so. We have an incredible Beyonce performance that will be announced soon. We wish the Grammys the best,’ said Mathew Knowles, her father and manager, in a statement.

Many other artists have not said if they will attend the Grammys until the details of the night have been worked out. The WGA, who has said it is not likely to grant the Grammy Awards a strike waiver, has given waivers to the NAACP Image Awards, the SAG Awards, and the Independent Spirit Awards.
