Kanye West Can’t Perform At The Grammys, But He Can Still Attend — Will He?

hollywoodlife.com:

Even though Kanye West’s performance at the 2022 Grammy Awards was cancelled, the 44-year-old rapper will still be allowed to attend the show, because of the nominations he received for his album Donda, according to Variety.

Kanye’s performance was announced to have been scrapped over “concerning online behavior” on March 19. Some believe the cancellation came in light of Ye making online attacks against The Daily Show hostTrevor Noah, who will host the award show on April 3.

Kanye’s nominations almost entirely stem from his 2021 release Donda. He’s racked up nominations for Album of the Year, Best Rap Album, Best Rap Song (for “Jail”) and Best Melodic Rap Performance (for “Hurricane”).

He’s also included in the nomination for Lil Nas X’s Montero for Album of the Year for his contribution. The sources told Variety that because of the nominations, the “Runaway” rapper will still be allowed to walk the red carpet and can attend both the Premiere Ceremony and main show.
