Justin Bieber, who has been nominated for 4 awards at the Grammys 2021 that are scheduled to happen this weekend on March 14, has decided to totally skip out on the awards ceremony. According to Page Six, the reason for The Hold On singer skipping on the event is simple. He is not going to be performing at the Grammys 2021.

Justin Bieber is upset about his Grammy nomination

Justin Bieber was not elated when he was nominated for 4 awards for this year's Grammys. In fact, Justin was upset with the Recording Academy because they nominated his album Changes under the pop category rather than the R&B category that the album was classified to be. According to the news outlet, this may be one of the deeper reason why Justin is not going to perform at the 2021 Grammys. When the Grammy nominations had come out in November 2020, Justin had called them out for snubbing his album from the R&B category. He penned a long note addressed to the Recording Academy and in his caption wrote, "Please don’t mistake this as me being ungrateful, these are just my thoughts take em or leave em. Thank you to the people who fought for me to even have any noms." Check out the post below:
