Artists Theaten To Boycott Grammy Ceremony

Wed, 16 Jan 2008 04:29:30 +1100

Artists are threatening to boycott the Grammy Awards this year in support of picketing writers, who have been on strike for two months.

Prince, The White Stripes, Jon Bon Jovi, 50 Cent, Beyonce, Usher, Fergie and Justin Timberlake are amongst many more artists threatening to boycott the Grammy awards scheduled for February 10 in Los Angeles.

The boycott could see the Grammys reduced to a low-key affair similar to the Golden Globes last week, which was essentially a press conference.

The writers have been on strike for two months demanding better pay conditions and have been supported by musicians, actors and TV presenters.

The strike has cancelled numerous shows and made headlines all around the world.
