Camila Cabello is up for two Grammys and will help open Sunday's show

Camila Cabello is up for two Grammys and will help open Sunday’s show.

Koryn Hawthorne could become the first former contestant from The Voice to win a Grammy Sunday night.

Several other artists with singing show connections are up for honors, and the show will feature performance by Camila Cabello and Fantasia.

Camila is set to take part in the Grammy’s opening set and promised “definitely some surprises” in an interview with iHeart Radio earlier this week.

Still just 21, Camila is up for two Grammys on Sunday. You’ll recall she got her start on The X Factor with Fifth Harmony, a girl group the show created.

Fantasia will take part in a tribute to R&B legend Aretha Franklin, who died of cancer at age 76 in August. She’ll be joined in that tribute by Andra Day and Yolanda Adams.

The Grammys will air on CBS beginning at 8 p.m.
