Tina Turner To Be Honored With Lifetime Achievement Award At 2018 Grammys

Tina Turner, along with Queen, and Neil Diamond will be the lifetime achievement award honorees at the 2018 Grammys this year. 

“This year’s Special Merit Awards recipients are a prestigious group of diverse and influential creators who have crafted or contributed to some of the most distinctive recordings in music history,” said Recording Academy President/CEO Neil Portnow.

“These exceptionally inspiring figures are being honored as legendary performers, creative architects, and technical visionaries. Their outstanding accomplishments and passion for their craft have created a timeless legacy.”

Now, after this announcement and the fact that the Grammy’s are honoring Jay-Z at the pre-gala, rumors have swirled that Beyoncé will be performing a Turner tribute, which seems pretty accurate.

The Grammy Awards will take place on January 28 at New York City’s Madison Square Garden.
