Also added to this year’s lineup is “Hot in Here” hitmaker Nelly, 46. The rap star and the “When Will I See You Smile Again?” group are each set to light up the stage with super nostalgic sets of their club bangers. The show, hosted by Taraji P. Henson, will air live on Sunday, Nov. 22 on ABC.
Three-time AMA winners Bell Biv DeVoe made their AMAs performance debut nearly 30 years ago with their 1991 No. 1 hit single, “B.B.D. (I Thought It Was Me?).”
