R&B singer Chris Brown is set to perform at the Grammy Awards.

The Forever hitmaker is believed to be making a return to the show, three years after he was arrested for assaulting then-girlfriend Rihanna at a pre-Grammy party in February 2009, Contactmusic reported.

"They wanna let me back in the door. The last two years, everybody dissed me. But my fans were so dedicated. The way I look at it is, you can't walk around mad, because then you just prove everybody right that you're an angry person," he said.

He is nominated for three awards at the Grammys 2012, including Best R&B Album for FAME.

The awards will be held at the Staples Center in Los Angeles.
