TAYLOR, MACCA TO HANDLE ROCK HALL INDUCTIONS

Taylor Swift will honor Carole King at the 2021 Rock & Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony on 10/30. Paul McCartney and Lionel Richie will also induct members of the 2021 class at Cleveland's Rocket Mortgage Fieldhouse.

Beyond inducting King, Swift and Jennifer Hudson will perform as part of the tribute to the legendary singer/songwriter. McCartney will induct Foo Fighters. Richie will present the Ahmet Ertegun Award to Clarence Avant.

Additionally, Angela Bassett will induct Tina Turner, accompanied by performances from Christina Aguilera, Mickey Guyton, H.E.R. and Bryan Adams. Drew Barrymore will induct The Go-Go’s.

The ceremony will air on HBO on 11/20.

If you can’t reach Karen Glauber this week, it's because she’s in the midst of a full-court press to handle the honors for Todd Rundgren.
