Everyone knows the Grammy Awards are a crucial time in music. Beyond star-studded red carpet looks that captivate audiences, fans can also anticipate seeing their favourite artists claim the awards and recognition they undoubtedly deserve. But the magic doesn’t stop there—in music, the live performances are the real showstoppers. Last year, the Grammys boomed with stellar performances from Olivia Rodrigo, Dua Lipa, and more.
Here’s a short recap—the 66th Grammy Awards in 2024 roared with excitement following Miley Cyrus’s first ever Grammy win for Record of The Year. She then graced the stage to perform her chart-topping hit single Flowers. But that’s not all that went down—Taylor Swift also made waves when she accepted the award for Album Of The Year with Midnights. Now with the 67th Grammy Awards rolling around, we expect nothing less than a spectacular performance lineup for 2025.
Sabrina Carpenter
Sabrina Carpenter is the one to watch. The blue-eyed blonde pop sensation first took the world by storm with her breakout hit Nonsense, charming fans with freshly written outros for every live performance. The popstar then continued to deliver consecutive hits with Feather, and now Grammy-nominated album, Short n Sweet. Her fans, also known as Carpenters, are now anticipating her first ever Grammy win, and possibly her first taste of McDonald’s. Based on what we’ve seen in her Short n Sweet tour, we can likely expect the singer to showcase a ’60s-inspired concept in her upcoming performance.
Chappell Roan
All eyes are on Chappell Roan as she prepares to showcase her glitz and glamour on the Grammys stage. Cementing her status as one of the main pop girlies in the music scene today, we can definitely anticipate a dazzling performance of her pop anthems Good Luck, Babe and Hot To Go. If you know Chappell Roan, you know that she brought back the boisterous spirit of pop culture today with her flame-haired drag-queen persona. Now nominated for 6 Grammy awards including Record of The Year and Album of The Year, the Naked In Manhattan singer has solidified her spot at the top.
Billie Eilish
Billie Eilish is no stranger to the music scene—or the Grammys. With 9 Grammy wins under her belt—including Album of The Year and Best New Artist—the Birds of A Feather singer is officially a household name in pop culture today. At last year’s Grammy Awards ceremony, Eilish captivated the audience with her touching performance of What Was I Made For? from Golden Globes award-winning movie Barbie. This year, fans eagerly anticipate her performance at the event, possibly showcasing smash hits from her latest album, Hit Me Hard & Soft.
Charli XCX
Brat summer is a cultural movement that is here to stay. Singer-songwriter Charli XCX lives rent-free in people’s minds, having started the global aesthetic with the iconic green hue from her latest album Brat. This year, the Von dutch singer secured herself a spot in the Grammy nominations list, with a total of 10 nods. Here’s hoping brat summer will manifest itself in all its phenomenal club chaos during her upcoming performance.
RAYE
Alongside these chart-topping artists, RAYE will also take the stage at this year’s Grammy Awards. She first captured the world’s attention with her fierce authenticity on the stage, immediately making her a worthy contender in pop music today. Some might even call her ‘the vocalist of the century’, especially now with 3 Grammy nominations added to her growing list of achievements. With hit songs like Escapism and Genesis, RAYE has all eyes on her—especially with her highly-anticipated performance at the Grammys this year.
