Lovato first announced she would be performing live at the Grammys on her Instagram roughly a week ago.

“I told you the next time you’d hear from me I’d be singing #GRAMMYs,” she captioned a photo of herself.

Lovato nearly died after suffering from an overdose in 2018. She spent two weeks in the hospital in July of 2018. Upon her release, Lovato then spent time in a rehab facility.
