B.o.B. To Perform At 2010 VMAs

NEW YORK (Top40 Charts/ Atlantic Records) - B.o.B is set to hit the stage as a performer at this year's 2010 MTV Video Music Awards. Bobby Ray, who is up for five Moonmen, including Video of the Year and Best Male Video, joins already announced performers Kanye West, Drake and Florence and the Machine.

"It's very special to me. I think it's a lot more special than the success of the singles, because this reflects the work I've put in over the years and the word of mouth I've helped create," B.o.B recently told MTV News about his nominations. "It's definitely amazing. I'm trying to find the words to explain it, but I can't. It's inexplicable. I'm a real simple man, so, you know, I accept every gift with generosity and gratitude."

The 27th annual MTV Video Music Awards will be broadcast live from the Nokia Theatre in Los Angeles on September 12 at 9 p.m. ET. Fans can go to VMA.MTV.com (or text VMA to 97979 if they are Verizon subscribers) to vote for the winners in general categories, including Best New Artist, from now through September 12.
