53rd GRAMMY Awards Slated For Feb. 13, 2011
Music's Biggest Night will air live from Staples Center on CBS
April 13, 2010 -- 2:00 am

The 53rd Annual GRAMMY Awards will take place in Los Angeles at Staples Center on Sunday, Feb. 13, 2011, and will air live on the CBS Television Network from 8–11:30 p.m. (ET/PT). As a result of last year's earlier show and Awards process dates, this year the eligibility dates for the 53rd Annual GRAMMY Awards are Sept. 1, 2009, through Sept. 30, 2010. (This year will mark a 13-month eligibility period.) The date for the GRAMMY nominations announcement — which showcases GRAMMY Award finalists, the year's best and brightest in music as voted on by The Recording Academy's membership of music professionals — will be announced shortly.

"The 52nd Annual GRAMMY Awards was a dynamic, memorable evening, and it delivered our highest ratings since 2004 and the biggest year-over-year increase in more than 20 years," said Neil Portnow, President/CEO of The Recording Academy. "We have every intention of keeping that momentum going with our 53rd show, and once again we are thrilled to be bringing the excellence and excitement of our GRAMMY Week events and charitable initiatives to the city of Los Angeles. We also look forward to working on another outstanding GRAMMY telecast with our partners and good friends at CBS and Staples Center."

"The 53rd Annual GRAMMY Awards will once again be event television with exciting and memorable performances that will entertain and engage our audience," said Jack Sussman, executive vice president, specials, music and live events, CBS. "We look forward to working with our partners at The Recording Academy to make Music's Biggest Night an event that can't be missed."

GRAMMY Week — a weeklong series of cultural events culminating in Music's Biggest Night — will again feature celebrations of music, fashion, arts education, and philanthropy, including the Salute To series, GRAMMY Style Studio, GRAMMY Career Day, Clive Davis and The Recording Academy's Pre-GRAMMY Gala, the annual MusiCares Person of the Year tribute, the GRAMMY Foundation's Music Preservation Project, the Entertainment Law Initiative luncheon, a Producers & Engineers Wing event, and GRAMMY Museum programs, among others.

Thanks for looking that up MJonmind!  It never occurred to me to look on wiki.  Seeing that they have been held at the Staples Center for the last decade (minus 2003 when they were in NYC), I don't see any connection to the hoax in this at all.

Thank you as well! I just saw it and remembered that they weren't at staples center last year so I figured it was the first time. Sorry  :oops:

They weren't?  

Well, AEG owns the Staples Center and has a stake in the Grammies.  Also, since we had the kids' speeches last year, and the coincidence that it is held on Prince's birthday...there still might be a connection.  But who knows at this point. HEck, I see connection to the hoax in the way my husband folds the laundry these days.

BTw- just saw the announcement on TV for the Grammies.  It had lots of interesting references in there and a picture of a drawing of a boy and girl holding hands.  So, of course, I thought of Hold My Hand.  It also said something about "turning demons into monsters."  I have to hear it again.  Hope it will be on youtube soon- then I will post.

That would be a complete miracle if I ever saw my husband fold laundry!  :lol:
I agree that we're going to see things happen with the Grammies. There's just too many connections to MJ. It's an adventure!! Paris mentioned "last year", "this year", but there's always NEXT year which is now!

I'm sure we will see some MJ related themes on there.  You really can't watch anything to do with music without a MJ reference being made.

That's true at the vma's last year usher was all mj but then again he's always been

Is everyone still remembering to vote?  I've been watching and voting and it seems that - while Michael is still #1 (of course) - the voters for Adam Lambert are starting to post some larger numbers.  So, don't forget to vote for MJ!

Great - me too.  Michael is stil ahead by 2,382 votes right now but Ive been notincing that Adam Lambert's votes are increasing by several hundreds so we have to make sure we keep voting.  As the Grammy broadcast approaches I'm sure they'll step up the voting too.
