The content of Bon Jovi's performance at the Grammy awards show will be determined by an interactive fan vote, one of two major interactive features planned for this year's event. The second gives viewers a chance to have their videos shown on stagealongside the Black Eyed Peas.

Bon Jovi is nominated for 'Best Pop Performance By A Duo Or Group With Vocals' for the song "We Weren't Born To Follow." Beginning this week, viewers can go to www.cbs.com/grammys and vote for one of six songs to hear Bon Jovi perform live at the show. The choices are:

"Always"
"Bed Of Roses"
"Have A Nice Day"
"It's My Life"
"Livin' On A Prayer"
"Wanted Dead Or Alive"

The deadline to vote is January 24. On January 25 the top three songs will be reposted, and a second round of voting will continue up until Bon Jovi's performance on January 31.

Through January 15, music fans can upload a 20-second video of themselves lip-syncing along with Black Eyed Peas' "I Gotta Feeling." Some videos will be selected to appear as part of the group's performance at the ceremony. Videos can be uploaded to www.cbs.com/specials/grammys/upload/.

The Grammy award celebration will take place on January 31. In addition to Bon Jovi and Black Eyed Peas, musicians set to perform at the event include Beyoncé, Lady Gaga, the Dave Matthews Band, and Taylor Swift. The show will be covered on YouTube at www.youtube.com/thegrammys.
