Dick Clark Productions and ABC have announced the performances for the '2018 American Music Awards'. The show will feature 10-time American Music Award-winning icon Mariah Carey, as well as a collaboration from award-winning record producer and songwriter Benny Blanco with multiplatinum artiste Halsey and global superstar Khalid, who is up for four AMAs this year.

The artistes join previously announced performers Post Malone, Ty Dolla $ign and Carrie Underwood. Hosted by Tracee Ellis Ross, the 2018 American Music Awards, the world’s largest fan-voted awards show, will broadcast live from the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles on Tuesday, October 9 at 8 p.m. EDT, on ABC.

Carey, who first performed at the AMAs in 1991 for a rendition of her dance-pop hit 'Someday', will make her world television debut of 'With You', the first single from her new album, returning to the AMA stage for the first time since 2008. Blanco will take the AMA stage for the very first time, joined by multiplatinum artistes and AMA performance veterans Halsey and Khalid, for their nostalgic love song 'Eastside', which is already in the top 40 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and Pop Songs Airplay charts with more than 300 million streams to date.
