Eminem will perform as part of the MTV Video Music Awards to be held on September 12 at the Nokia Theatre in Los Angeles and hosted by Chelsea Handler, according to MTV News,
The 37-year-old rapper seems an obvious choice since his most recent album, Recovery, is the top seller this year and he’s nominated for awards in no fewer than eight categories.
The artist formerly known as Slim Shady
will join Kanye West, Justin Bieber, Drake, BoB Florence and the Machine and DJ Deadmau5, all of whom will perform at the gala.
In past years, Eminem has brought us some of the most visually entertaining and iconic performances ever to grace the stage of the MTV Video Music Awards.
