    Nicki Minaj to perform at NBA All-Star game

    NEW YORK (AP) — The NBA All-Star players will be getting quite the introduction this year: Nicki Minaj will sing a medley of her hits as the players are announced to the crowd.

    Minaj is part of a celebrity lineup for the National Basketball Association's All-Star game on Feb. 26. Mary J. Blige will sing the U.S. national anthem and the group Neverest will sing the Canadian anthem. Pitbull, along with Ne-Yo and Nayer, will perform during the halftime show.

    Will.i.am, Flo Rida and "The Voice" winner Javier Colon are expected to perform at All-Star pregame events on Feb. 25.

    Common, Ne-Yo, Kevin Hart and other stars will participate in the Feb. 24 All-Star celebrity game. The coaches will feature All-Star players Dwight Howard and Kevin Durant.

      Thank you for the "heads up" about her next performance. This way I can make sure not to watch it :-)

      Mock and demean the Catholic Church and you get honored by the NBA. She didn't have the cajones to mock Islam because all hell would have broke loose. What a horrible piece of human debris.

      sounds like there will be gunplay. NBA is destroying itself by turning into a ghetto trash league.

      Are you kidding me?? This no talent performer has no business at the NBA All Star game or any other public venue. The antics of this person as a "performer" appeal to a very narrow spectrum of the real world and should not be presented as main stream and normal behaviour under the guise of entertainment.. Rolling around on the floor and mocking religion is not what a genuine entertainer is all about. The NBA needs to get real and get a life. There are plenty of family friendly entertainers out there and this ain't one of them.

        Did you know she has breast and butt implants? Yes, it is indeed true.

      Disappointed with that choice of performer. She mocked the Catholic Church, had a Pope impersonator escort, 'levitated' and had satanic undercurrents in her Grammy Night performance. How is this a role model to anyone or tasteful entertainment for a prestigious game night?
      • LaikaO 3 mths ago
        Cool. Maybe she'll flash her satanic undergarments.
      • Johnny Doe 3 mths ago
        LaikaO,You are a #$%$

      She's going to expose her weener on stage. Yawn.
    • Lori  •  Houston, Texas  •  3 mths ago
      If they have Nicki Minaj I won't be watching the game!
      • Bo 3 mths ago
        Me either Lori. I don't understand why they would have this PIG perform(if you can call it that) at the NBA All Star Game, especially after what she just did at the Grammy's. If I hear she is going to be on a show in any way, I WILL NOT WATCH, PERIOD!!!. Advertisers take note!!!
    • Snoopy  •  3 mths ago
      After what she did at the Grammysl??? Why? Why? Why???!!!!!
    • h  •  3 mths ago
      After seeing her on the Grammys all I can say: No talent freak show.
    • Traci  •  St Louis, Missouri  •  3 mths ago
      OVER-RATED
    • Deano  •  Grand Rapids, Michigan  •  3 mths ago
      Look another Soul Train award show, Non talented bubble gum music-all pro black #$%$ This event needs some Rock n roll for my white players
    • Djangobelle  •  Aspen, Colorado  •  3 mths ago
      Mary J. Blige will probably do an amazing job with the National Anthem. Javier Colon is actually pretty good. But what's up with this Minaj chick? Who keeps making the decision to show case her non-talent on television?
    • HQD  •  Fremont, California  •  3 mths ago
      Yikes! I guess I won't be watching the All-Star game! But I do I hope she is dressed like basketball and gets swatted into the stands.
    • Mr.  •  Sullivan, Missouri  •  3 mths ago
      Seriously? Guess I'm not watching.
    • Kat  •  3 mths ago
      Will she perform with a Mohammad lookalike this time? Just asking.
    • Joe  •  3 mths ago
      Nicki Minaj ripped off the Undertaker.

      When you have no talent, you play at the N B A all star game .
