The pint sized singer got a little choked up as she sang the final few notes of an epic ballad from her Grammy nominated album

Ariana Grande set the bar high as she took to the stage early in the Grammy Awards evening.

Singing the beautiful ballad Just A Little Bit Of Your Heart, the 21-year-old showed off her stunning vocal range as she blasted through the tear-jerker.

In fact, Ariana put so much into her performance, that she got a little emotional herself, throwing her hands over her eyes as she came to the end of the song.

We imagine singing at the Grammys is as big as it gets, and we think Ari lived up to her pop credentials.

Wearing a gorgeous navy dress, Ariana has admitted that she has a grand total of six outfit changes tonight.

Our editor Katie Hind said: “The singer is performing this evening and let slip to friend Kelly Osbourne that her wardrobe is bulging somewhat.”

“Ariana also wanted a separate frock should she win either of the two awards she has been nominated for.

“She’s up for best pop vocal album and best pop duo/group performance for her hit Bang Bang.”

The 57th Grammy Awards is one of the biggest nights on the music calendar, with a star studded guest list turning out to walk the red carpet.

Held at the Staples Center in Los Angeles, California, Hollywood’s finest have cleared their calendars to make sure they show their face at this ultra glamorous event – as well as all the pre-Grammy parties too .

But while Rihanna, Kanye West and Paul McCartney take to the stage to perform their brand new collaboration FourFiveSeconds, songstress Taylor Swift has had to excuse herself from performing duties after admitting she is “too wrapped up” in her world tour.

After her triumphant Super Bowl appearance, Katy Perry is also back with a Roar , as she joins artists including John Legend and Madonna on the prestigious stage.

One thing’s for sure – with all these stars in one building, there’s plenty to talk about.
