These LGBTQ+ Artists Will Be Performing at the 2022 Grammys
You can't have the Grammys without LGBTQ+ artists!
Every year, the Grammys Awards are home to some of the biggest and best live performances you'll see on TV, and this year is no different. Some of the biggest names in music will be there, and that includes several of our favorite queer artists.
The Recording Academy announced the first slate of artists who will be performing, and it includes names like BTS, Billie Eilish, and Olivia Rodrigo, with more artists being announced later on!
The Grammys are taking place Sunday, April 3 at 8pm ET/5pm PT on CBS. You can also stream them live and on demand on Paramount+. Check out a list of this year's queer nominees who will be performing at the ceremony below.
