The 23-year old singer also treated the audience at the 02 Arena in London, with a rousing performance of her hit song "Rolling In The Deep".

"I'm immensely proud to have been asked to perform at this year's GRAMMY Awards," said the "Rolling in the Deep" singer. "It's an absolute honor to be included in such a night, and for it to be my first performance in months is very exciting and of course nerve-racking, but what a way to get back into it all."
