Alicia Keys named host of 2019 Grammys

The Grammys has a familiar host.

Singer-songwriter Alicia Keys _ a 15-time Grammy winner _ will emcee this year's edition of the annual award show when it takes place next month, The Recording Academy and CBS announced Tuesday.

"I know what it feels like to be on that stage, and I'm going to bring that vibe and energy," Keys said in a statement. "I'm so excited to be the master of ceremonies on the biggest night in music and celebrate the creativity, power and, magic. I'm especially excited for all the incredible women nominated this year! It's going 'UP' on February 10!"

Keys has been nominated for 29 Grammys over the course of her career, last winning in 2014 for best R&B album with "Girl on Fire."
