Prince, 56, is planning a Grammy Awards performance.

The Purple Rain singer is set to play a set at the ceremony on February 8 in Los Angeles, adding to an impressive line-up including Madonna, AC/DC and Pharrell Williams.

A source told Us Weekly: “He has something very, very special in the works.”

The musician will join other acts such as Ariana Grande, Ed Sheeran, Usher, Miranda Lambert and Sam Smith if he does perform at the ceremony, which would be his first time singing at the show since 2004.

During that performance 11 years ago, Prince sang with Beyoncé, who has racked up six nominations at this year’s ceremony, performing a medley of Purple Rain, Let’s Go Crazy and Baby I’m a Star as well as Beyonce’s debut solo single, Crazy in Love.

It wouldn’t be Prince’s first appearance at an awards show this year. He attended the Golden Globes earlier this month, where he presented the Best Original Song category. - BANG Showbiz
