(Radio.com) The Recording Academy, the organizing body of the Grammy Awards, has confirmed that Lady Gaga will perform a musical tribute to the late David Bowie at this year's show.

'We had already booked Lady Gaga on this year's show, but when David passed - almost in a single moment - we knew we had to change direction. We immediately spoke and agreed that she should be the one to honor David. She's perfect for it," said executive producer of the Grammy Awards Ken Ehrlich.

Lady Gaga cites David Bowie as one of her leading artistic influences and joined the outpouring of admiration in January. Tributes to David Bowie's life and artistic legacy continue to proliferate. On Saturday night, Susan Sarandon quoted her late friend in her introduction of the In Memoriam segment of the Screen Actors Guild Awards. Read more here.
