This year, Beyonce Knowles will be center stage receiving the night's top honor at the Billboard Awards on May 22. Find out what she will receive inside, and get deets on Whitney Houston being banned from Prince concerts and Common and Jill Scott at the White House.
The Queen Bee of music will receive the 2011's Billboard Millennium Award during the show's May 22nd broadcast from the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas. The show will be hosted by Ken Jeong and features performances by Cee Lo Green, Nicki Minaj, Pitbull, The Black Eyed Peas and Rihanna.
Perhaps the singer will perform 'Run The World (Girls)' from her fourth studio album due later this year.
Also in music....
Whitney Houston seems to have lost her purple privileges as TMZ reports she has been banned from future Prince concerts. It seems the diva had some excessive ticket demands and seemed to show up to several concerts intoxicated (though no one reported seeing her do drugs or drink alcohol). We told you earlier that Whitney has checked into an outpatient rehab program....SMH. I hope she pulls it together in time to start filming the Waiting To Exhale sequel.
And at the White House....
Even in the absence of Desiree Rodgers, the fabulous cultural events continue at the White House. This week, Common will make an appearance during a celebration for American poetry. Tomorrow, he will perform with Elizabeth Alexander, Aimee Mann, and Jill Scott among others.
