MTV has wooed Beyoncé into attending and performing its upcoming Video Music Awards, the network revealed Thursday morning.

As we previously reported, the singer has this year's most nominations, with eight nods, including Video of the Year and Best Female Video.

She'll also receive the Michael Jackson Video Vanguard Award, picked up last year by Justin Timberlake.

Other performers include Usher, Maroon 5 and Ariana Grande, with more acts to be announced. The ceremony is set for Sunday, Aug. 24, at 9 p.m. EST on MTV.

Beyoncé last performed at the VMAs in 2011 when she revealed her baby bump on stage.
