Justin Bieber is set to give one of the most eagerly awaited performances of Monday night's Grammy Awards 2016 ceremony. The Canadian singer will be joined by the likes of Adele, Lady Gaga, Rihanna, Carrie Underwood, as well as Kendrick Lamar, Demi Lovato and even Johnny Depp among others.

The Grammys 2016 main ceremony has a scheduled start time of 8 p.m. ET, and is set to open with a big performance from the hugely popular Taylor Swift.

Swift is set to open up the show with some songs from her 1989 album, which is up for Album of the Year.

Swift, who is also nominated for Record of the Year for "Blank Space", has been in the news in recent days not for her own songs, but because of controversial lyrics in Kanye West's new song "Famous".

In that song, West calls Swift the "B" word as well as talks about having sexual relations with the singer - all this despite the fact that West is married to Kim Kardashian, and has two young children himself.

Adele will also give a massive performance tonight, although her new album "25" is not up for Album of the Year as it was not released in time to be eligible for this year's awards ceremony.

Despite that, Adele's album is one of the most talked about albums in recent weeks, and the 10 time Grammy award winner is likely to belt out her recently released second single from the album, "When We Were Young."

Another singer with a new album, who will be performing tonight is Rihanna.

The Barbadian singer released her 8th studio album on February 5 and confirmed last week that she will be performing tonight. For a long time there were rumors that Rihanna would be performing in this year's Grammys as she appeared in a CBS TV promo last month for the awards show.

Lady Gaga will be performing a seven minute tribute to the late British legendary singer David Bowie. Gaga's song "Til It Happens to You" has been nominated for Best Song Written for Visual Media, and her Bowie tribute tonight is sure to be one of the most talked about performances of the night.

Meanwhile, Justin Bieber will be taking to the stage with Diplo and Skrillex, with the trio set to perform their hit single "Where Are U Now" - which is up for the Best Dance Recording award.

Monday night's Grammy Awards 2016 ceremony will be hosted by LL Cool J, and can be watched on TV live on the CBS network from 8 p.m. ET or online through live stream by clicking here. A video of Justin Bieber's performance can be seen below:
