Usher To Perform At BET Awards 2012

Published: Tuesday 12th Jun 2012 by Sam

The BET Awards 2012 performer line-up was injected with more ‘Scream’ factor today. For, it was announced merely moments ago that Urban-Pop superstar Usher will be taking to the stage.

Find out who else has been added to the line-up below…

Joining the 33 year old as additions to the show are Hip-Hop trailblazers Big Sean and 2 Chainz.

Collectively, they share the night’s performer bill with previously announced performers Chris Brown and Nicki Minaj.

*****

While Usher makes for a great addition, the show is looking a little heavy on the male performer tip. Here’s hoping things even out at it draws nearer.

The 2012 BET Awards takes place live from the Shrine Auditorium on July 1st.

Be sure to keep it locked on That Grape Juice for your complete BET Awards fix!

  2. Cranberry June 12, 2012

    Show Chris how it’s done. 😉

    • melisa June 18, 2012

      NO!!!! CHRIS WILL ALWAYS SHOW HIM THE DAMN THANG….. GET IT RIGHT

  3. Bobby June 12, 2012

    King B NEEEEEEDS to come back and show EVERYONE how it is done. Perfect promo for End of Time, just a shame she performed it last year from Glastonbury & they aired it there. She still murked the stage better than anyone else (Kelly Rowland did amazing but I’m not here for lip singing which she did) …. BEYONCE2PERFORM!

    • TRUTH June 12, 2012

      Beyonce lip sings too Dumbass!!! They both lipsing certain parts of the song to allow choerographed movements. But you talk like is was a Chis Brown full on lipsync. It wasnt. ASSHOLE

      • ANNE June 12, 2012

        Kelly’s performance WAS a full blown Chris Brown type lip sync.

      • Virtuoso Intellect June 12, 2012

        No she doesnt u idiot. When its playback Bey doesnt have the mic to her mouth bsides Kelly lipsynched the entire song.

      • Bobby June 12, 2012

        LMFAO @ You cursing me out. What’s next, are you gonna treat me like Amber Rose and throw copies of “Here I Am” at me (if their available for sale still because I know EVERYONE and their mothers bought one).

        When Beyonce lip sings, from what I can remember, it has only recently been for Video Phone & Dance For You performances … and she never holds the mic up to her face and pretends. I wasn’t dissing Kelly’s performance, it was fresh as hell she worked that choreo but I’m here for live singing and that choreo … so BeyBey better WERQ.

        *And I’m not a delusional Beyonce stan; I was so disapointed in 2009 when she did Ava Maria*

    • TheCatSpeaks June 12, 2012

      ok… first off… kelly rowland did not lip sync NOWHERE IN THAT PERFORMANCE.

      i took theatre arts, baby , i know lip syncing when i see it.
      i looked and looked and looked, and listened and listened and listened to that performance, 20 times! and still didnt see it.

      2nd… i wish beyonce would come up there performing a damn single that came out a damn year ago.

      and 3rd… as much as i love beyonce… damn it… she need to let that b.e.t stage go. let some other people in the spotlight. and that goes for all these people on this performance list this year. except 2 chainz & usher. everybody else, perform every damn year. sit down.com

  4. d June 12, 2012

    if we can get beyonce usher ciara and chris to perfom on that night, one word…EPIC

    • melisa June 18, 2012

      BEYONCE AND CHRIS YESSSSSSS…… CIARA AND USHER EPIC FAILEDDDDDDD

  5. Ugh June 12, 2012

    Usher better do “Lemme See”!!!!

    • melisa June 18, 2012

      HOW ABOUT HE JUST DONT PERFORM…. YEAHHH! THAT SOUNDS GOOD

  6. An0thrnight272 June 12, 2012

    Ciara better get booked for this show, she needs to lay it down like she did with like a bow and take you down! If she performs sweat, shed go down in bet history!

    • CH June 12, 2012

      I actually think Ciara should avoid BET as they have shown many times that they dont support nor really seem to like her. She should focus on the VMAs and other award shows.

    • NJabzzzz June 13, 2012

      O plz dancing is all she can do

  7. JuanR June 12, 2012

    I’m here for Usher and Ciara
    I need Mary and Kelly too…

  8. honesty June 12, 2012

    Everybody knows that the BET Awards is not as good when Beyonce isn’t there. She needs to perform countdown party or dance for you.

  9. Jayla June 12, 2012

    They better book some females who will tear the stage down or the flamers will be highly upset lol

  10. CH June 12, 2012

    I hope Beyonce does not perform nor does she show up just so that BET can feel like idiots for nominating her for as much as they did just to get her to show/perform, shes great but the ass kissing needs to stop.

    I would LOVE to see Brandy open the show that would be great for her.

    • melisa June 18, 2012

      YES! THATS YOUR OPINION BUT HONESTLY GIVE CREDIT WHERE IT IS DUE. THERE IS LITERALLY NO FEAMLE R&B SINGER F****** WITH BEY RIGHT NOW. EITHER THEY CAN SING AND NOT DANCE. OR VICE-VERSA. SHE CAN SING, DANCE , AND ALL OF THIS WITH HEELS. COME ON.. PLEASE !!!

  11. Virtuoso Intellect June 12, 2012

    Brandy should perform her new single as should Monica

    I dont know if i want Bey to perform tbh. Revel wasa high n i was ready to let 4 era go With the success of LOT that woukda been good way to go. I want a new album by end of d yr which wont happen if she’s still performing songs from 4 on award show at this point.

  12. yeah June 12, 2012

    Usher is gonna perform Climax

  13. Kyria June 12, 2012

    I WANT ASHANTI, CIARA & KHIA TO PERFORM 🙂

    • TheCatSpeaks June 12, 2012

      i love ashanti but i honestly dont know what she would perform at this award show.

      now ciara… that would be great.

      Khia…

    • NJabzzzz June 13, 2012

  14. Sean June 12, 2012

    Brandy Brandy Brandy (Chants) Come on BET y’all already got her for the game let’s get her on that stage with Chris or here’s an even better idea…RCA should have Brandy perform a new single…then release it the next day…

  15. MISHKA June 12, 2012

    Well, at least SOMEONE is going to sing live.

    It’s gonna be a WHITNEY night, for God’s sake, go live or stay home!

  16. POP ROYALTY ( Révolution) June 12, 2012

    yaas 🙂

  17. Failure 03 June 12, 2012

    A dual performance of Climax and Lemme See would be huge!!

  18. DIGGER BEY June 12, 2012

    Definitely want to see what The King of The Stage perform. And since Usher is performing, we need The Queen of Kings & Queens of The Stage performing! Yes I need thee to snatch wigs and leave The Bet Awards filled with lifeless bodies! She needs to do EOT revamped! I also want too see The Beautiful Kelly Rowland, Ciara, Neyo, Brandy and Keri Wilson. Damn! I forgot shes been downgraded to doing only Retail parklots. @ Truth Mad cause KING B sings live more than ur fav. #Fact

  19. yIP June 12, 2012

    ANYWAY BET BETTER NOT MESS UP THAT WHITNEY TRIBUTE!!!!!

  20. Jussaying June 13, 2012

    Lol beyonce has lip synched whole performances before. 2004 VMAs, destinys child appearance on Oprah when they reunited. Even still, doesn’t take away her talent. Artists used to lip synch on Soul Train back in the day. You fans need to chill the eff out, stfu and enjoy the show. ESP if your ass isn’t paying for a seat to enjoy it live.

  21. melisa June 18, 2012

    THE ONLY PEOPLE I WANNA SEE PERFORM ARE BEYONCE AND CHRIS BRWON. IF NICKI IS PERFORMING BY MYSIDE WITH CHRIS THEN SHE WILL DO & MAYBE RIHANNA. OTHER THAN THAT THE REST CAN GO KICK ROCKS….
