T.I. and members of Earth, Wind & Fire will perform “Blurred Lines” with Robin Thicke, and Keith Urban will sing Bill Withers’ “Ain’t No Sunshine” with R&B singer Miguel.
Rapper-actor LL Cool J will host the one-hour special, airing on CBS at 10 p.m. The show also will feature pre-taped performances by Taylor Swift and Katy Perry.
