It will mark an AMA return for the "Russian Roulette" singer as well, as Rihanna performed "Rehab" at the 2008 awards show and in 2007 sang "Umbrella" and "Hate That I Love You" with Ne-Yo.

At this year's awards show, she joins an impressive list of previously announced performers, including Adam Lambert, Kelly Clarkson, Carrie Underwood, Jay-Z, Alicia Keys, Jennifer Lopez and the Black Eyed Peas.

    She's going to do amazing. And this incident with Chris is just going to make her stronger. She's a beautiful woman, and so brave. This is going to be an amazing come back. :)
