He’s not currently nominated for a Grammy, but\u00a0Billy Joel<\/strong>\u00a0will take the stage<\/a>\u00a0at this year’s Grammy Awards, set for February 4 in Los Angeles.<\/p>\n

Over the years, The Piano Man has won five Grammys, including Album of the Year for\u00a052nd Street,<\/em>\u00a0and Record and Song of the Year for “Just the Way You Are.” He also received a Grammy Legend Award. So far, he’s the only announced performer who isn’t a current nominee: The other performers include\u00a0Dua Lipa<\/strong>,\u00a0Billie Eilish<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0Olivia Rodrigo<\/strong>, as well as\u00a0Luke Combs<\/strong>, Afrobeats star\u00a0Burna Boy<\/strong>\u00a0and rapper\u00a0Travis Scott<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

News of Billy’s appearance on the telecast comes just a few days after the\u00a0release<\/a>\u00a0of his first pop single since 2007, “Turn the Lights Back On.”\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

Billboard<\/em>\u00a0suggests<\/a>\u00a0that the Grammy folks may want to create some kind of “Grammy moment” with Billy and Olivia, because she mentioned him in the lyrics of her song “d\u00e9j\u00e0 vu.” Olivia did actually join Billy onstage at Madison Square Garden in 2022: they sang\u00a0“d\u00e9j\u00e0 vu” and “Uptown Girl” together.<\/p>\n

January 27 marks the 10-year anniversary of the start of Billy’s record-breaking residency at Madison Square Garden, which will come to an end in July.<\/p>\n
