Kanye West hasn’t graced an award show stage since his fateful Taylor Swift incident at last year’s MTV Video Music Awards, but he’s finally ready to make his return to live award events. The Chicago emcee has been tapped to perform at the 2010 BET Awards — his first award show appearance since September 2009 and first TV performance since he joinedRihanna and Jay-Z on ‘The Jay Leno Show’ the day after the VMA’s.
The BET Awards, slated to air live on the network on June 27 at 8PM, are set to be hosted by Queen Latifah, with Ludacris, DJ Khaled, Rick Ross and Drake among those recently added to the list of performers. Previously announced performers include Janet Jackson, Diddy-Dirty Money, Nicki Minaj, Trey Songz and T.I., who will perform for the first time at an award show since getting out of jail.
