BLACKPINK's Rosé will take the stage at the Grammy Awards, the highest authority music awards in America. The Recording Academy, which oversees the Grammy Awards, announced on the 29th (local time) through its official website that Rosé will perform as a performer at the '68th Grammy Awards' held on February 1 at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles, USA. This is the first time a K-POP solo artist will showcase a stage at the Grammy Awards. Previously, as a group, BTS performed at the Grammy Awards in 2021 and 2022. Rosé is nominated in three categories, including 'Song of the Year,' 'Record of the Year,' and 'Best Pop Duo/Group Performance' for her duet with Bruno Mars titled 'APT.' This is also the first time K-POP has been nominated for a major award at the Grammys. However, it has not yet been disclosed whether Bruno Mars will join her on stage. KATSEYE, produced by HYBE, has also confirmed its appearance at this award ceremony. KATSEYE is scheduled to perform alongside nominees for 'Best New Artist' such as Olivia Dean and Shabozi. Additionally, the OST 'Golden' from Netflix's original animated film 'KPOP Girls! Demon Hunters' has been nominated in multiple categories, including 'Song of the Year,' 'Best Pop Duo/Group Performance,' 'Best Remixed Recording,' and 'Best Song Written for Visual Media.' There is growing interest in whether Rosé can become the star of the Grammys through her global hit 'APT.'
