Coldplay welcomed special guest Rihanna to the stage for a performance of their new duet, "Princess of China," at the 2012 Grammy Awards Sunday night.

A bit more subdued than Nicki Minaj's Grammy performance, but still a strong effort on a night that brought together the best in music (and honored Whitney Houston).

You can follow this link for the official "Princess of China" video and see their live performance below, which Coldplay followed up with their mega-hit, "Paradise."
