Justin Bieber has joined the lineup of performers at the 2026 Grammy Awards.

Bieber has a storied history with the Grammys, boasting 27 nominations since 2011. He has four nominations this year, including his third career nod for Album of the Year for Swag.

He is also nominated for Best Pop Solo Performance for 'Daisies', and Best R&B Performance for 'Yukon', as well as Best Pop Vocal Album for Swag.

For all his nominations, Bieber has won just two Grammys to date, and neither was in the pop field. He won best dance recording in 2016 for Where Are Ü Now, a collaboration with Skrillex and Diplo, and best country duo/group performance in 2021 for 10,000 Hours, with Dan + Shay.

Sabrina Carpenter was the first performer announced for this year's Grammys show, followed by news that all eight best new artist nominees would perform on the night.

The third performer announcement focused on Clipse and Pharrell Williams, who share three nominations this year.

Justin Bieber has not given a public performance of this scale since the cancellation of his Justice World Tour in 2023.

At the time, the 31-year-old was dealing with ongoing health concerns, including a diagnosis of Ramsay Hunt Syndrome.

Fans flooded the Grammys Instagram post that announced Justin Bieber as a performer, with comments ranging from "I just screamed" to "2026 is the new 2016, this just proved it."

Wife Hailey Bieber also showed her support, commenting a line of black heart emojis to the news.

The 68th annual Grammy Awards will air live on Sunday, 1 February. Trevor Noah is set to host the show for his final time. The comedian is the first person to host six consecutive Grammy telecasts since singer Andy Williams hosted the first seven live shows from 1971 to 1977.
