Justin Bieber is seen for the first time since news he will be performing at the Grammys

Justin Bieber was seen stepping out for dinner at Il Pastaio in Beverly Hills on Wednesday evening.

It comes amid news that the 31-year-old Canadian pop star has been tapped to perform at the upcoming 2026 Grammy awards. 

He paid homage to the late singer Aaliyah on Wednesday as he sported a black tour T-shirt with the name of her 2000 single Try Again emblazoned across the top.

And the star teamed the shirt with oversize, deep indigo denim shorts and a pair of black boots. He sported a buzz cut and carried what appeared to be a laptop or tablet as he headed into the eatery. 

February will mark his first time hitting the Grammy stage in four years, as he last performed there in 2022.

At the time, he delivered a rendition of his hit song Peaches alongside Giveon and Daniel Caesar. 

Amid Bieber's exciting Grammy news, his wife Hailey Bieber used her Instagram Stories to show support. 

She reshared a joint post from the official Grammys Instagram account and CBS, which read: 'He's back. @lilbieber hits the GRAMMY stage for a night you'll never forget...' 

The Rhode skincare founder added two black heart emojis, and commented similarly on the post. 

In November the Honest hitmaker received four Grammy nominations for his surprise summer album Swag.

In addition to Album of the Year, the Sorry singer is nominated for Best Pop Vocal Album, Best Pop Solo Performance for his song Daises, and Best R&B Performance for Yukon. 

Following the news, Hailey wrote online, '27x nominee! Let's go, baby,' as she cheered on her husband, whom she wed in 2018. 

Yukon quickly became a fan-favorite on the 21-track album, which was released as a surprise drop on July 11.

After the Grammys on February 1, Justin will prepare for his historical Coachella performance. 

In September he made history as he became the highest paid booked Coachella Festival act in history. 

The music artist surpassed Beyoncé with his seven-figure payout, which totals more than $10M.

And he negotiated directly with Goldenvoice, the festival's promoter.

'It's a groundbreaking move for a headliner, and it's something he built entirely on his own,' a source close to the singer told Rolling Stone. 

'Between headlining Coachella and the success of Swag, it's clear this is the start of an exciting new era for Justin — one where he's fully in the driver's seat,' the person added.

Due to his negotiating finesse, Justin won't be sharing a cut with an agent — making his profit all the more substantial.
