Miley Cyrus Confirmed For Billboard Music Awards Performance

Fans of Miley Cyrus will be pleased to hear that the 'Wrecking Ball' hitmaker will be performing at the Billboard Music Awards.

However, the star - who landed in the UK today ahead of her Bangerz Tour performance at the O2 tonight - won't be entertaining the crowds with a live performance at the awards ceremony on May 18.

Instead, the star will perform from the UK and that performance will be shown during the ceremony in Las Vegas, according to Billboard.com.

As Miley prepares for her appearance on the Billboard Music Awards, 5 Seconds Of Summer, Jennifer Lopez, John Legend and Pitbull will also be preparing for their performances.

The hosting line-up is equally star-studded with KUWTK star Kendall Jenner, Kelly Rowland and Wiz Khalifa all set to appear on the stage.

Meanwhile, Jennifer Lopez has been announced as this year's recipient of the Billboard Icon Award in celebration of her epic career, while it has also been confirmed that the American Idol judge will perform two songs at the awards ceremony.

Fans will see the star at Las Vegas' MGM Grand Garden Arena where she will also pick up the award which recognises the artist's lifetime achievements and incredible contribution to the music industry throughout their career.

Confirming the news, Larry Klein, producer of the Billboard Music Awards, said: "Jennifer Lopez is one of the most iconic performers of her generation. We are thrilled to honour her historic career with the 2014 Icon Award and will be on the edge of our seats like everyone else when she takes the stage."
