Blast from the past!<\/p>\n

The 2020 Grammy Awards<\/a> are right around the corner, and music lovers are guaranteed to see an unforgettable show. For one, the annual awards ceremony is chock-full of stellar nominees<\/a> that include Beyonc\u00e9<\/a><\/strong>, Lizzo<\/a><\/strong>, Bad Bunny<\/strong>, Maluma<\/a><\/strong>, Taylor Swift<\/a><\/strong>, Ariana Grande<\/a><\/strong>, Lady Gaga<\/a><\/strong> and many more.<\/p>\n

Secondly, Alicia Keys<\/a><\/strong> will take the stage and host the star-studded event at the CBS Broadcast Center’s Studio 43 in New York City.<\/p>\n

And let’s not forget that the Grammys red carpet is always slay-worthy. It’s one of the few awards season shows where celebrities aren’t afraid to push the fashion boundaries with over-the-top designs, in-your-face patterns and flashy accessories.<\/p>\n

In fact, many of the 2020 nominees showed up and showed out to their first Grammys red carpet. We’re talking Gaga’s otherworldly Giorgio Armani design, Dolly Parton<\/a><\/strong>‘s dazzling pink cowgirl couture ensemble and the “Spirit” singer’s glitzy fringe two-piece.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n
