Performances at the 2014 Grammy Awards Ceremony


Beyonce Knowles and Jay-Z performed to their song 'Drunk In Love'




Julia Roberts took to the stage at the 56th Annual Grammy Awards to introduce a special performance from the only surviving Beatles members Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr in stunning fashion.
 She just wants your extra time, and your... Julia Roberts hits the Grammy stage in a sexy Elie Saab minidress
Julia showed off her never-ending legs in a black lace minidress by Elie Saab from his spring/summer 2014 collection, and proved that at 46-years-old, she could still give these young girls a run for their sartorial money.





Still got it: Julia looked just as stunning as that vivacious Vivian who strutted onto our cinema screens in Pretty Woman, 24 years ago

'On February 9, 2014, the Recording Academy will honour John, Paul, George and Ringo with a special two-hour Grammy tribute: The Beatles: The Night that Changed America The Grammys Salute.'
 Reunited: The only surviving members of the Beatles took to the stage together on Sunday night
