Ariana Grande Not Attending Grammys After Disagreements With Producers

Variety:

An insider tells Variety that Grande felt “insulted” after producers initially refused to allow her to perform “7 Rings,” the latest single from her forthcoming album “Thank U, Next” (which arrives Friday, two days before the Grammys). A compromise was reached whereby “7 Rings” would be part of a medley, but Grande pulled out after producers insisted that the second song be of their choosing.

Huh. I would have never guessed that the Grammys have a "no cover song" policy too.

 

Should have done what Nirvana did in 92 instead.

I realize the scope of a pop song played on the Grammys in 2019 is a far cry from a three piece band playing a song on stage in 92 though.

 

good for her

 

Huh. Never thought about Grammys and song choice. Just assumed people either did like tribute/legacy covers organized by the grammys or like whatever song they have that's nominated.
