Clive Davis All Star Guest List for Pre-Grammy Dinner Is a Who’s Who of Music Biz and Hollywood from Tom Hanks to Beyonce to Troye Sivan!

Music mogul Clive Davis, you know, has a better social life than any of us!

No one can command a guest list to his pre Grammy dinner like Clive. Every A-lister in Hollywood is coming. I can surmise that some others, like Joni Mitchell, will be front and center.

I have a partial list of names here. And this does not include the performers who will take the stage at the Beverly Hilton on February 3rd.

The pre-Grammy dinner also salutes Jon Platt, chairman and CEO of Sony Publishing. And he’ll bring some guests, too!

Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson, Beyoncé and Jay-Z, Berry Gordy, Jon Bon Jovi, Luke Combs, Ice Spice, Smokey Robinson, Quavo, David Foster and Katharine McPhee, Gladys Knight, Noah Kahan, Troye Sivan, Maluma, Green Day’s Billy Joe Armstrong, Rob Light, Charlie Puth, Coco Jones, Wyclef Jean, Jody Gerson, Ken Ehrlich, Valerie Simpson, Miguel, Ava DuVernay, Kenny “Babyface” Edmonds, Rob Stringer, uber agent Richard Weitz, Oscar winning songwriter Diane Warren, Max Lousada, Michelle Anthony, Republic Records chiefs Monte and Avery Lipman, Mr. Brainwash, Brian Grazer, Max Martin, Avril Lavigne, Lana Del Rey, Ron Perry, Shania Twain, Larry Jackson, Michele Lee, Warner Music’s Tom Corson, Michelle Jubelirer, Demi Lovato, Wiz Khalifa, Peter Asher, Joan Collins, Peter Edge, DJ Cassidy, Don Lemon, Sylvia Rhone, Amazon’s Steve Boon, Victoria Monet, Josh Groban, Ozzy and Sharon Osbourne, Metallica’s Robert Trujillo, Aaron Bay-Schuck, Busta Rhymes, Craig Kallman, Ari Melber, Allen Grubman, John Branca, Aaron Rosenberg, Van Jones, Hannah Karp, David Massey, Haim Saban, Concert guru Peter Shapiro, and, of course,  Earth Wind & Fire.
