Adele ‘planning Grammys performance’

Grammy producers are reportedly hopeful that Adele will perform at the ceremony next month.

The British star has been nominated for six of the prestigious music awards, including album of the year for her smash hit record 21.

Adele has been keeping a low profile in recent months after undergoing emergency surgery for a haemorrhaged vocal cord in November. She was advised to take a break from singing and forced to cancel several tour dates.

However, it has now been reported that Adele could show off her stunning vocals by opening this year's Grammy Awards.

"Adele will be at the Grammys in Los Angeles on February 12," a source close to the singer told RadarOnline.com. "She's thrilled to be nominated, but it's been a hard time for her because of the surgery. She has begun talking more, with her doctor's permission. Adele's best friend in recent weeks has been warm compresses around her neck to help the healing process of her vocal chords.

"Producers of the Grammys would love to have Adele perform, and open the show, but she isn't able to give them an answer yet. She won't be able to give them an answer until the beginning of February, and they completely understand."

People usually take anywhere between one and three months to recover from the throat operation.

It was recently reported that Adele has been eating less junk food in a bid to boost her all-around health.

She is believed to have lost 25lbs to ensure she looks her best for the Grammy Awards and to "sex up" her image.
