My fave closed the Grammy's & still lost all 3 categories she was nominated for
Adele didn't perform last year and still won Pop Solo (for a live performance).
Gotye cleaned up after the committee rejected him as a performer.
It makes sense for general field nominees to be asked to perform, but they are not guaranteed wins, and a performance slot doesn't indicate you have a strong chances at winning.
The general field, one or two pop categories, a rap category, one or two country categories, a rock category.
It's usually like 10 to 11 awards presented on the telecast.

Was nominated four Grammys, including Album of the Year, and performed on the main show. She lost every single one of her awards.
