LOS ANGELES — (AP) — Trevor Noah feels more comfortable hosting the Grammy Awards for a third-straight year, but the former "The Daily Show" host still has some nervousness about leading the ceremony with big-time acts like Beyoncé, Adele and Harry Styles looking on. Noah returns for his third hosting stint at the Grammys, which airs live from Crypto.com Arena on Sunday on CBS and Paramount+. The ceremony returns to Los Angeles after relocating to Las Vegas for the first-time ever because of rising COVID-19 cases and omicron variant. “We love having Trevor because he's so darn good at it,” said Harvey Mason jr, the CEO of the Recording Academy. He’s singing, he’s dancing, he’s rapping.

(Columbia Records, left, and Big Loud Records-Republic Records via AP) (Uncredited)NEW YORK — (AP) — New data from the music industry confirms what a lot of people long suspected — 2021 was a very good year for Morgan Wallen, Adele and vinyl. That's despite Wallen being rebuked by the music industry after a video surfaced showing him blurting out a racial slur. Adele's album “30” arrived late last year and she recorded the highest album sales debut in four years, with first-week sales of 839,000 equivalent units. Drake's "Certified Lover Boy" was 2021's most popular rap album in the U.S., with 1.97 million equivalent album units earned.

Albums by Wallen and Adele were the top sellers of 2021, according to MRC Data and Billboard's annual tally. Other findings: audio on-demand streaming soared, and sales of vinyl outpaced CDs.

Inspired by Adele, the singer's emotionally-charged music even led to the end of her own relationship.

If there is one thing Adele can make you do, it’s cry.

This week’s new entertainment releases include a much-anticipated album from Adele, a documentary about Janet Jackson's wardrobe malfunction during the 2004 Super Bowl half-time show and Will Smith playing father and tennis guru to Venus and Serena Williams.
