What do you mean Reba McEntire never performed at the Grammy Awards? The headline might sound like a typo, but as strange as it might sound, Reba never took the stage at the Grammy Awards. At least, until Sunday, when she helmed the In Memoriam section with Lukas Nelson and Brady Clark. Throughout her career, Reba not only sold over 75 million albums but also won three Grammy Awards. Again, it sounds almost blasphemous for Reba to have never performed on music’s biggest stage, and fans are letting the music industry know.

The voice behind classics like “I’m a Survivor”, “Fancy”, and “The Heart Won’t Lie”, Reba produced a career that took her all over the world. Releasing hit songs and winning awards, it was only a matter of time before she was named the Queen of Country Music. But throughout all her success, she never performed at the Grammys.
With last night marking her Grammy performance debut, fans expressed both their love for the singer and their shock over the organization’s snubbing of the country icon. But before reading what fans wrote, Reba shared her own post, simply enjoying what she considered a “date night” with her fiancé, Rex Linn.
