Unknown To Duet With Justin Timberlake
19 December 2006
The Recording Academy announced "My GRAMMY Moment" as it continues its mission of discovering and nurturing music makers with a historic opportunity for unsigned artists to vie for a performance with Justin Timberlake on the 49th Annual GRAMMY Awards.
Current multi-GRAMMY nominee Timberlake will culminate his recent involvement with the GRAMMY Foundation's music education initiatives by performing live on the GRAMMY Awards in a special segment with the unsigned artist that fans choose online at Yahoo! Music, the official online partner of the GRAMMY Awards.
The Top 3 finalists will be eligible to participate in GRAMMY Foundation activities including GRAMMY Career DaySM and GRAMMY CampSM, as well as The Recording Academy's recently launched GRAMMY University Network. The 49th Annual GRAMMY Awards will be held on Feb. 11, 2007, at Staples Center in Los Angeles.
"I'm happy to participate in this unique approach to discovering unsigned talent, but I'm only a piece of the puzzle," said Justin Timberlake. "All of you contestants out there should look at this as more than just a chance to duet with me, because it's really an opportunity to begin your career as a superstar. And I'll be there to help coach you along."
