The show must go on with the Latin GRAMMYs.
LRM Online spoke exclusively with nominated singer Gina Chavez prior to her performance for today’s Latin GRAMMY Awards performance.
Despite the pandemic, the 21st Latin GRAMMY Awards airs tonight, which honors great musical Latin performers. Obviously, things will look different to ensure the safety of the artists and production crew.

The performances during this daytime session include nominees Gina Chavez, Kurt, Naike Pone, and Daniel Santacruz. Gaby Moreno and Lupita Infante are the award presenters, which they were also nominated this year.
Additionally, the Brazilian premiere ceremony, presented in Portuguese, awards the Portuguese-language categories for the first time ever. This event takes place at 5 p.m. EST/2 p.m. PST/7 p.m. (Brasilia) on the Latin GRAMMY’s Facebook Page.
As for the main event, it airs on Univision tonight at 8 p.m. EST/5 p.m. PST. Also, the broadcast airs on TNT (cable) at 7 p.m. (MEX)/8 p.m. (COL)/10 p.m. (ARG/CHI), and on Televisa on Channel 5.
