The 2018 American Music Awards just levelled up its performer line-up.
For, organisers have just announced that Ciara and Missy Elliott will be taking to the stage together at the annual extravaganza.
Details below…
The pair, who have teamed up several times over the years on hits such as ‘Lose Control’ and ‘Work,’ join previously announced performers Mariah Carey, Khalid, and Carrie Underwood on the October 9th bill.
Specifics are being kept under wraps, but CiCi has several songs doing their thing in the marketplace of late – including viral smash ‘Level Up’ and ‘Dose.’
On Missy’s end, new music has been teased in earnest (see: ‘Throw It Back’), so it’s plausible the AMAs could be its big reveal. In any case, we’re buzzed! Are you?!
Got something really special planned for ya with my girl @MissyElliott ?
@AMAS! October 9th, 8/7c on ABC. #AMAs #LevelUp #Dose pic.twitter.com/sQIlRKJkxu— Ciara (@ciara) September 28, 2018
Presented in partnership with YouTube Music, the 2018 AMAs airs live from the Microsoft Theater on Oct 9th.
Yassss homegirl is turning her career right around. She hasn’t booked a stage in so long (words of Rihanna) it’s really good to see her return.
Sadly Rihanna hasn’t been doing much be being a flat alto singer whose better settle for makeup & lingerie…✌??
Hasn’t been doing much? Lolol what a joke. Homegirl literally just closed and shut down New York fashion. She’s out here becoming a billionaire. Music is coming soon too. But when you’re a brand like Rihanna, you have options. You don’t have to depend on music.
You could’ve kept the lil shade meme, we need to be getting our account ready for the Rihanna coffee tables cause she damn sure isn’t interested in giving us any damn music.
Music is coming. Very soon.
I didn’t think anyone remembered that Twitter fight between Ciara and Rhianna lol s*** was funny
Rihanna so petty. Lol
Thats awesome ??!!
okayyy…i see it a lil bit
Alright this should be good. Looking forward to some Choreography and high energy.
Finally something different for the awards and it’s exciting.
I know. The AMA’s are finally getting it right this year.
That shemale thing ‘FAKE Jasmine da bi TRASHman’ has been pretending to be me over a whole damn year. I’m a real woman who wears Minolos and Louboutins and Mr. Payless Buy One Get One Cheap Shoes has been trying to squeeze his crusty size 11 mens in my shoes for well over a year but they don’t fit his ugly ass. Be gone TRASHman.
Agreed! I’m excited to see the AMA’s this year! Missy and Ciara are dope! Aretha’s tribute seems perfect as well. Hope they invite Barbra Streisand there to promote her new album and will be one of the greatest AMA’s ever!
It seems going independent was the best thing for her.
She’s not independent
She technically is. She has her own imprint through Warner Music Group. She has more control and freedom
Distributed, and that’s one of the best deal you can get. The label just take their 10% cut and the rest is yours. My be a lil different with streaming.
This is payola people when u not poppin on charts but still perform
At major show
Well then keep the payola coming because the people “poppin on the charts right now” aint worth a damn onstage (cardi b, all the Lil’s, shawn mendes, camilla cabello, etc)…LOL
Nicki got yall thinking everything she fails at but other prosper at is payola. Just keep in mind, if payola was that easy, labels would def be doing for everyone. People are just good at their craft…others are just studio queens.
Prob the level up remix she was featured on ?
I love this, level up as women. Got this on lock in mind. So haters don’t try it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Real music is back. Poor Rih, Rih. Come Kelly!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Families need it.
C’mon Cici… let’s go!!! I’m so happy she’s performing on a major platform like the AMA’s.
This is what CiCi needs!
Im not a huge fan of hers but Im hoping this “Underdog” story comes to life and hopefully turned the next singles or “Level Up” back to Ciara being in the spotlight.

She was the ONLY threat to Beyonce back in 2004-2006 and was killin it. Here for her comeback and I want Keri Hilson and Ashanti back!
I Can not WAIT..
