Tonight at 8 p.m. Eastern, CBS will host the 2015 Grammy Awards. The Grammys are the most prestigious awards in the music industry, and they feature some stellar performances by the biggest names in popular music.
This year's Grammys includes performances by Rihanna, Ed Sheeran, Kanye West, Ariana Grande, AC/DC, and Eric Church to name a few. Sam Smith will do a duet with Mary J. Blige, and Katy Perry will try to one-up her Super Bowl performance. Taylor Swift isn't performing, but she will present an award.
Please join Vox's live blog covering the event. The live-blogging begins at 7:40 p.m. Eastern and will continue until the program ends.
Will the performances be any good? Will Iggy Azalea send the world swirling into heated controversy? Will a celebrity trip on her dress? Will Sam Smith win every award and leave everyone in the dust? Only time will tell.
These questions and many others will be answered, beginning at 7:40 p.m. Eastern tonight. Follow along as we live-blog the extravaganza.
Will you support Vox’s explanatory journalism?
Most news outlets make their money through advertising or subscriptions. But when it comes to what we’re trying to do at Vox, there are a couple of big issues with relying on ads and subscriptions to keep the lights on:
First, advertising dollars go up and down with the economy. We often only know a few months out what our advertising revenue will be, which makes it hard to plan ahead.
Second, we’re not in the subscriptions business. Vox is here to help everyone understand the complex issues shaping the world — not just the people who can afford to pay for a subscription. We believe that’s an important part of building a more equal society. And we can’t do that if we have a paywall.
So even though advertising is still our biggest source of revenue, we also seek grants and reader support. (And no matter how our work is funded, we have strict guidelines on editorial independence.)
If you also believe that everyone deserves access to trusted high-quality information, will you make a gift to Vox today? Any amount helps.
