Daft Punk are to perform with The Weeknd at this year's Grammy music awards in LA.

It'll be the French duo's first live appearance since the Grammys in 2014, when they were on stage with Pharrell Williams.

They haven't done any gigs off the back of their last album, Random Access Memories, either.

The awards take place at the Staples Centre on 12 February.

It's highly likely Daft Punk will perform the two tracks they wrote with The Weeknd - Starboy and I Feel it Coming.

Neither track is up for a Grammy though, because they were released after the deadline.

The Weeknd is nominated as a contributor to Beyonce track, Lemonade.

Other performances include Maren Morris with Alicia Keys, a collaboration between A Tribe Called Quest, Anderson Paak and Dave Grohl plus slots from Adele, Bruno Mars, Metallica, John Legend, Carrie Underwood and Keith Urban.

This year's show is being hosted by James Corden.

Meanwhile, Taylor Swift's album of the year acceptance speech from last year's show has been made into a new video.

A group of girls deliver parts of the speech, which shows how young women can empower themselves through "hard work and hope".
