Grammy Awards Decision Coming Today: Should They Stay or Should They Go on January 31st?

Share

All eyes will be on CBS and the Grammy Awards today. Should they stay or should they go on January 31st?

In Los Angeles, the COVID surge continues. I’ve been told that top talent is wary of packing into the Staples Center on the 31st, let alone the LA Convention Center on the 29th for Joni Mitchell’s Musicares Person of the Year dinner.

But moving the Grammy weekend isn’t easy. That would push the whole package including Clive Davis’s pre-Grammy dinner, to April or May. Anything is possible and so far no one seems to know what’s going to happen. I’m told even host Trevor Noah is clueless.

So stand by… the envelope with the answer will be opened any minute…
