Nelly Furtado, Shakira To Perform, *NSYNC's Timberlake To Present At Latin Grammy Awards
Yahoo! Music, Sep 4, 2002 5:00 pm PDT
(9/4/02, 5 p.m. ET) -- Nelly Furtado and Shakira will perform while *NSYNC's Justin Timberlake will present at the third annual Latin Grammy Awards, taking place September 18 at Hollywood's Kodak Theatre.
Furtado will appear with triple-nominee Juanes. The duet continues Furtado's trend toward the eclectic--at February's Grammy Awards she performed with the accompaniment of guitar hero Steve Vai.
Shakira's performance, meanwhile, comes as the Columbian star enjoys a nomination in the category of best music video for her song "Suerte." Thalia will also take the stage, along with previously announced talents Marc Anthony and Carlos Vives.
Timberlake's participation comes as he continues to roll out his brand-new solo career. The Latin Grammy spotlight will mark the second marquee appearance for the singer in recent weeks, having made his debut solo performance on the MTV Video Music Awards last week.
Others on tap to present include Jennifer Love Hewitt, Hector Elizondo, Esai Morales, Cheech Marin, and Laura Pausini. Previously announced presenters include Jon Secada, Daisy Fuentes, and Nick Carter.
The third annual Latin Grammy Awards air September 18 on CBS. Gloria Estefan and Jimmy Smits will co-host.
