Pop star Nicky Minaj has set her date with the MTV Video Music Awards as she will be performing from an "iconic location" in New York during the ceremony.
The 35-year-old singer joins the star-studded roster of artists performing at the 2018 VMAs, which also includes Travis Scott, Post Malone, Ariana Grande, Shawn Mendes and Jennifer Lopez, MTV said in a statement.
This will be the first time Minaj will perform solo at the awards. Her earlier two appearances were with Ariana Grande for "Side to Side" in 2016 and Katy Perry for "Swish Swish" last year.
Minaj's performance at the VMAs will come three days after the release of her fourth studio album "Queen", which was supposed to release on August 10, but was pushed back one week.
The 2018 MTV Video Music Awards will be held on August 20.
