Adele broke the good news to her fans on Tuesday (January 31) via Twitter. "Ima be, Ima be singing at the Grammys.

It's been so long I started to forget I was a singer!" Adele tweeted.

"I can't wait, speak soon xx."

This will be the second time that Adele has graced the Grammy stage.

She performed her hit song "Chasing Pavements" in 2009 at the annual awards show. That same night, Adele took home two awards, for Best New Artist and Best Female Pop Vocal Performance for "Pavements."

In a statement on Tuesday afternoon, the U.K. singer expressed gratitude. "I'm immensely proud to have been asked to perform at this year's Grammy Awards," she said. "It's an absolute honor to be included in such a night and for it to be my first performance in months is very exciting and of course nerve-racking, but what a way to get back into it all."

This year, Adele has plenty of company from other A-list nominees set to sing at the show.
