The Grammys have entrusted the show's hosting duties yet again to LL Cool J.
The "NCIS: Los Angeles" star will host for a fourth time at the music awards ceremony on Feb. 8 at the Staples Center in Los Angeles. CBS will broadcast the event starting at 8 p.m.
Before LL Cool J started his emcee gig in 2012, the show had gone six years without a host. He oversaw a somber Grammy event in his first year, the ceremony coming the day after Whitney Houston's death.
The Grammys also announced performances by Miranda Lambert, Usher, Sam Smith, Pharrell Williams, AC/DC, Eric Church, Ariana Grande, Madonna and Ed Sheeran. Common and John Legend will perform their Oscar-nominated song "Glory" from the film "Selma."
Usher along with Coldplay, Ed Sheeran, Janelle Monae and Willie Nelson will help pay tribute to Stevie Wonder in a primetime special a week after the Grammys. The two-hour special called "Stevie Wonder: Songs in the Key of Life - An All-Star GRAMMY Salute" will air on Monday, Feb. 16 at 9 p.m. on CBS.
"Stevie Wonder is an absolute legend and I am so honored to be a part of this very special night," Sheeran said in a statement.
The Grammys will air on Sunday, Feb. 8 at 8 p.m. on CBS.
