The A-List RSVPs are coming in for Clive Davis’ annual pre-Grammy party.
The music industry’s heaviest hitter has once again landed the biggest names for his annual pre-Grammy bash.
Entertainment power couple Beyonce and Jay-Z have both confirmed that they plan to attend this year’s gala, Page Six has exclusively learned.
Motown legend Berry Gordy, Jon Bon Jovi, Demi Lovato, Tom Hanks, Rita Wilson and Ozzy and Sharon Osbourne are a few of the starry names who are expected to help make the bash the must attend – and most exclusive – event of Grammy weekend this year.
We’re told Shania Twain, Ice Spice, Maluma, Charlie Puth, Avril Lavigne, Demi Lovato,Gladys Knight, Quavo, Smokey Robinson, Joan Collins, Don Lemon, Ava DuVernay, Lana Del Ray and Earth Wind and Fire are also all expected. The party will honor Sony Music Publishing Chairman and CEO Jon Platt.
Davis hosts the pre-Grammy gala — held at the Beverly Hilton Hotel — in partnership with the Recording Academy. Invites went out last week, we’re told.

Industry insiders have been speculating about whether party regular Sean “Diddy” Combs will be there as he battles abuse allegation, after they noticed his picture was barely included in this year’s photo montage. (Only a sliver of the rapper and mogul’s face can be seen). A rep for Davis assured us his photo wasn’t sidelined intentionally and that “different artists, guests and performers are changed from year to year.”
Still, we’re told Combs will not be attending the awards ceremony and will likely sit out Davis’ party this year.
