WGA Will Not Picket Grammys
The show will go on after all at this year’s Grammy Awards.
The Writer’s Guild of America announced Tuesday that they won’t picket the ceremony on Feb. 10., following earlier warnings they would.
This means big-name artists will likely attend the event at L.A.’s Staples Centre. Indeed, Beyonce and Foo Fighters have already confirmed they will perform.
However, MTV reports that the Recording Academy is still trying to strike a deal with the WGA that would allow its staff writers to work on the show.
The ongoing writers’ strike led to a scaled-back Golden Globes earlier this month, and the Oscars ceremony in February still faces the prospect of WGA picketing.
