Dec 12, 2011
Legendary singer Diana Ross was named among musicians set to receive Grammy Lifetime Achievement award. The ceremony will take place on February 12 in Los Angeles. It will be first time when former Supremes frontwoman will be praised with Grammy honor.

Apart from Diana Ross, the award will be also handled to Allman Brothers Band, Glen Campbell, Antonio Carlos Jobim, George Jones and The Memphis Horns. Gil Scott-Heron, who passed away earlier this year, will be honored posthumously.

Earlier Kanye West claimed he was very happy to learn that he has scored seven nominations for Grammy Awards 2012. Rapper – who has got more nods than any other artist – also claimed he is going to "blow up" upcoming ceremony.

Foo Fighters have got six nominations, while Adele will compete for five honors, including Record Of The Year award for her song Rolling In The Deep (which can also go to Bon Iver for Holocene, Bruno Mars for Grenade, Mumford & Sons for The Cave or Katy Perry for Firework).
