Lady Gaga has been announced as a performer for next months Grammy’s.

Grammy organizers had yet to announce the singers performance, but her own choreographer Laurie-Ann Gibson let the news slip out via Twitter.

Gibson’s Tweet on Jan. 11 read:

“Grammy meeting performance extraordinaire..!!! On its way… ”

A fan then asked Gibson if Gaga would be performing at the Grammy awards show to which she quickly responded with a simple “yes.”

MJ’s Kids Spread Love

Posted by Kate Alvarez as Michael Jackson, Paris Jackson, Prince Michael Jackson at 9:00 AM UTC on Feb, 02 2010

One of the highlights of last weekend’s Grammy Awards was the Lifetime Achievement Award for the late Michael Jackson. Accepting the award are MJ’s two eldest kids, Prince and Paris, who made their first appearance since the late King of Pop’s memorial service last year.

“We’re proud to be here to accept this award on behalf of our father, Michael Jackson,” said Prince, trying to hold it together. “First we'd like to thank God for watching over us for these past seven months and our Grandma and Grandpa for their love and support. We'd also like to thank the fans. Our father loved you so much since you were always there for him."

“Through all his songs, [our father’s] message was simple: love,” said Prince Michael, 12. “We will continue to spread his message and help the world.” He and his sister Paris, 11, were surrounded by their cousins (remember 3T?) as they gave their speech onstage.

"Daddy was supposed to be here. Daddy was gonna perform but he couldn't perform last year," said a teary-eyed Paris to an emotional audience. “Thank you, we love you Daddy.”

Grammy Red Carpet Shockers

Posted by Kate Alvarez as Adam Lambert, Britney Spears, Cathy Guetta, Ciara, David Guetta, Imogen Heap, Lady Gaga, Pink, Ricky Martin, Shaila Durcal, The Red Carpet at 12:00 PM UTC on Feb, 01 2010

What’s a Grammy show without those who’d dare stun us with their choice of threads, crazy antics, or mere celebrity presence? Read on to see why these five stars incurred a little gasp from yours truly.

Was that a supernova? A planetarium constellation? A walking hurricane? Oh, Lady Gaga, you never cease to amaze me. This was just one of the exclusive Armani Privé ensembles she put on that night.

The punk-rocker is now a lady! Pink surprised everyone with her crystal-encrusted degradé gown.

Sorry, Imogen Heap. Nobody can ever outdo Lady Gaga, but you gave it a good shot.

Ladies and gentlemen, Ricky Martin is alive! I repeat, Ricky Martin is back!

Glambert rocked, as usual. Why, Adam Lambert could wear a real vampire’s costume from the 1800s and still make it look hot.

Who is Shaila Durcal, or better yet, what in the world was she wearing?!

I give David and Cathy Guetta the “rocker couple of the night” award.

Oh, Britney. Your see-through, black lace Dolce & Gabbana dress over a bodysuit and fishnet stockings just wasn’t cutting it.

Did Ciara just have a chat with Britney before heading to the Grammys?

Grammy Awards Best Dressed

Posted by Kate Alvarez as Awards & Accolades, Beyonce Knowles, Carrie Underwood, Chantel “Chani” Christie, Fergie, Heidi Klum, Jennifer Nettles, Katy Perry, Miley Cyrus, Rihanna, Taylor Swift, The Red Carpet at 11:00 AM UTC on Feb, 01 2010

Last night’s gathering of entertainers brought out a new trend for red-carpet dressing. Perhaps it’s the 2010 bug where fashionistas are out to challenge the conventional “glam-glam-glam” mantra. Here are my top 10 picks for the Grammy’s best dressed, in no particular order.

As Fergie posed with the rest of the Black Eyed Peas, her cobalt blue Emilio Pucci mini was simply Fergilious.

Miley Cyrus was definitely ready to “Party In The USA” with her teal Hervé Léger by Max Azria dress.

Carrie Underwood sure had a penchant for straps that night. Her Edition by Georges Chakra gown looked great, especially when she received her Best Country Collaboration award.

Before the show, Katy Perry tweeted: “[sic] I’m excited 4 today, all the performances r going to be fab & beauty is gonna be on point! Today I’m channeling Indian Betty Paige princess!” It looks like her Zac Posen dress did the job.

Multi-winner Taylor Swift glittered, literally, with her off-shoulder KaufmanFranco gown.

Sleeves are back on the red carpet style radar. Beyonce, who got the most nods at the Grammys, stood out with her detailed fishtail gown.

Rihanna brushed off rumors that she was blacklisted from the Grammys. Her Elie Saab Haute Couture gown made the feathered collar a must-have fashion detail.
