Taylor Swift, BTS, Dua Lipa and Billie Eilish are among 20 acts that will take to the Grammy Awards 2021 stage in what promises to be an epic three-and-a-half-hour show.
The ceremony, which is scheduled for Sunday, will be held without an audience at an undisclosed location in Los Angeles, featuring several stages. Comedian Trevor Noah will host the show.
The move comes after a similar show planned for January 31 was postponed because of ongoing safety concerns amid the pandemic.
Despite the circumstances, event producer Ben Winston promises a stirring evening full of heart and optimism for a struggling industry.
"It will be a bespoke night of music that I don't know if we'll ever be able to repeat," he told Rolling Stone.
“It’s about taking a camera into a room, and making an amazing musical moment by filming it quite simply and elegantly.”
Here are a few of the biggest acts performing on pop music’s most important night.
1. Taylor Swift
A huge night could be in store for the pop star, with Swift up for six Grammy Awards, including the prestigious Album of the Year (Folklore) and Song of the Year (Cardigan).
Swift also received a nod for Beautiful Ghosts, taken from the Cats soundtrack.
2. Dua Lipa
It will be a pop battle royale this year, as Dua Lipa matches Swift's tally of six nominations.
Her hit single Don't Start Now is up for three gongs, including Record of the Year and Song of the Year, while Future Nostalgia is up for Album of the Year.
3. BTS
A lot is riding on BTS nabbing their one and only nomination for Dynamite (Best Pop Duo / Group Performance).
If they seal the deal, not only will it confirm they are the biggest pop band in the world, but that K-pop is also a force that's here to stay.
4. Billie Eilish
Will she do it again? After making a clean sweep of the major awards in 2020, Eilish returns to the Grammys with four nominations.
Three of them are for the single everything i wanted (including Record of the Year and Song of the Year) and a Best Song Written for Visual Media nod for the theme tune of the new James Bond film No Time to Die.
5. DaBaby
The hard work is paying off for the talented rapper.
After nabbing two nominations in genre-specific categories in 2019, DaBaby is up for three awards for breakout single Rockstar, including Record of the Year, as well as Best Rap Performance for Bop.
If he wins, it confirms his leading status in the hip-hop game.
6. Bad Bunny
The Puerto Rican rapper and singer continues to lead the charge in Latin pop's crossover to the US mainstream. He is up for two awards on the night, including Best Latin Pop or Urban Album for YHLQMDLG.
7. Post Malone
Will this be the year for Post Malone?
The rapper has received nine nominations over the past three years only to come home empty-handed.
If he wins any of his three nominations this year, it will be for important categories, including Record of the Year and Song of the Year for Circles. Post is also up for Album of the Year for Hollywood's Bleeding.
8. Chris Martin
It will be a solo performance from Coldplay. Frontman Chris Martin will hit the stage to perform a track from 2020's Everyday Life, a nominee for Album of the Year.
9. Harry Styles
Harry Styles confirmed his crossover from boy band star to serious artist by nabbing a trio of Grammy nominations.
The ex-One Direction singer is down for Best Pop Vocal Album for Fine Line, Best Pop Solo Performance for Watermelon Sugar and a Best Music Video nod for Adore You.
10. Cardi B
After a stunning 2018 victory for Best Rap Album (Invasion of Privacy), Cardi B returns to the Grammys to perform Clout, which is also up for Best Rap Performance.
The full list of performers and nominees is available on the Grammy Awards website.

Red flags
- Promises of high, fixed or 'guaranteed' returns.
- Unregulated structured products or complex investments often used to bypass traditional safeguards.
- Lack of clear information, vague language, no access to audited financials.
- Overseas companies targeting investors in other jurisdictions - this can make legal recovery difficult.
- Hard-selling tactics - creating urgency, offering 'exclusive' deals.

Zakat definitions
Zakat: an Arabic word meaning ‘to cleanse’ or ‘purification’.
Nisab: the minimum amount that a Muslim must have before being obliged to pay zakat. Traditionally, the nisab threshold was 87.48 grams of gold, or 612.36 grams of silver. The monetary value of the nisab therefore varies by current prices and currencies.
Zakat Al Mal: the ‘cleansing’ of wealth, as one of the five pillars of Islam; a spiritual duty for all Muslims meeting the ‘nisab’ wealth criteria in a lunar year, to pay 2.5 per cent of their wealth in alms to the deserving and needy.
Zakat Al Fitr: a donation to charity given during Ramadan, before Eid Al Fitr, in the form of food. Every adult Muslim who possesses food in excess of the needs of themselves and their family must pay two qadahs (an old measure just over 2 kilograms) of flour, wheat, barley or rice from each person in a household, as a minimum.

TEACHERS' PAY - WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW
Pay varies significantly depending on the school, its rating and the curriculum. Here's a rough guide as of January 2021:
- top end schools tend to pay Dh16,000-17,000 a month - plus a monthly housing allowance of up to Dh6,000. These tend to be British curriculum schools rated 'outstanding' or 'very good', followed by American schools
- average salary across curriculums and skill levels is about Dh10,000, recruiters say
- it is becoming more common for schools to provide accommodation, sometimes in an apartment block with other teachers, rather than hand teachers a cash housing allowance
- some strong performing schools have cut back on salaries since the pandemic began, sometimes offering Dh16,000 including the housing allowance, which reflects the slump in rental costs, and sheer demand for jobs
- maths and science teachers are most in demand and some schools will pay up to Dh3,000 more than other teachers in recognition of their technical skills
- at the other end of the market, teachers in some Indian schools, where fees are lower and competition among applicants is intense, can be paid as low as Dh3,000 per month
- in Indian schools, it has also become common for teachers to share residential accommodation, living in a block with colleagues
