Here we go: Yet another awards show-concert to watch on your couch at home.

On Sunday, the Grammys announced its lineup of performers for the 2021 show, which is set to air March 14 at 8 p.m. on CBS, hosted by Trevor Noah. The long list includes Bad Bunny, Black Pumas, Cardi B, BTS, Brandi Carlile, DaBaby, Doja Cat, Billie Eilish, Mickey Guyton, Haim, Brittany Howard, Miranda Lambert, Lil Baby, Dua Lipa, Chris Martin, John Mayer, Megan Thee Stallion, Maren Morris, Post Malone, Roddy Ricch, Harry Styles and Taylor Swift.

Among the performers, Dua Lipa, Roddy Ricch and Taylor Swift are also nominated for awards with six nods each.

Swift, who has been in a relationship with actor Joe Alwyn since 2017, previously dated Styles. The former One Direction singer, 27, is now dating Olivia Wilde, 36.

The Recording Academy did not reveal whether performances will be live or pre-taped in the Sunday announcement, but did make note that the show “will pay tribute to the independent venues, which have been greatly impacted by the pandemic.”

“From bartenders to box office managers, those who work day-to-day at the Troubadour (Los Angeles), The Hotel Café (Los Angeles), the Apollo Theater (New York City), and The Station Inn (Nashville) will present various categories throughout the night,” the Academy said.

Music’s big night was set to be held on Jan. 31, but — like many awards shows this season — was pushed back due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic. However, the Grammys’ move to March 14 caused a conflict with the Screen Actors Guild Awards, which were set to air the same night. The SAGs have since been rescheduled to April 4.

Clive Davis, who was diagnosed with Bell’s palsy, postponed the second half of his annual party, setting the “pre-Grammy gala” for May — nearly two months after the actual show.

Sources told Variety that much of the 2021 show will be held outside at the Los Angeles Convention Center, with the usual venue, the Staples Center, in the background. There will be no audience and limited media at the live red carpet with performers and presenters, according to the report, which also revealed many performances will likely be pre-recorded.

Nominees were announced in November and include Beyoncé — who led the pack, as well as Billie Eilish, Megan Thee Stallion, Post Malone and more.

Nominations proved to be somewhat scandalous this year as The Weeknd lashed out for being snubbed by the Recording Academy despite his album, “After Hours,” having two No. 1 hits: “Heartless” and “Blinding Lights.”

“The Grammys remain corrupt. You owe me, my fans and the industry transparency…” he tweeted in November.

After he rocked a much-talked-about Super Bowl performance, though, The Weeknd seemed to back off, telling Billboard in January that the Grammys “mean nothing” to him.

“I personally don’t care anymore,” the singer, whose real name is Abel Tesfaye, said. “I have three Grammys, which mean nothing to me now, obviously. It’s not like, ‘Oh, I want the Grammy!’ It’s just that this happened, and I’m down to get in front of the fire, as long as it never happens again.”

The academy later said it was because it was unsure which genre his music fell under.

Still, The Weeknd said it felt like a “sucker punch.”

“It just kind of hit me out of nowhere,” he told Billboard. “I definitely felt … I felt things. I don’t know if it was sadness or anger. I think it was just confusion. I just wanted answers.”

“Like, ‘What happened?’ We did everything right, I think,” he continued. “I’m not a cocky person. I’m not arrogant. People told me I was going to get nominated. The world told me. Like, ‘This is it; this is your year.’ We were all very confused.”

Justin Bieber also felt snubbed — despite earning an impressive four Grammy Award nominations for his fifth studio album, “Changes” — since he believes his album was wrongfully mistaken as a Pop album rather than an R&B anthology.

The Recording Academy also came under fire when it announced that Taylor Swift‘s re-recorded albums will be eligible for Grammys, prompting to Twitter to call it “greedy.”

But beyond nominations, Tiffany Haddish found herself swept up in Grammy drama when the show offered her a non-paid hosting gig, in which she’d have to pay for her hair, makeup and wardrobe. After she declined, the Academy apologized.
