A four-time Grammy winner himself, Mars is also nominated for his work on Adele's smash-hit 25.

Mars' recently released album 24K Magic was not nominated for any Grammys as the project released after the deadline for eligibility for the 2017 show.

Previously announced performers for the event include Adele, John Legend, Metallica, Carrie Underwood and Keith Urban.

The Grammy Awards hosted by James Corden will broadcast live from the Staple Center in Los Angeles on CBS on Feb.12.
