As previously reported, Beyoncé has snagged a record breaking 11 nominations at this years 2016 MTV Video Music Awards, and it looks as though the network is looking to secure Bey’s attendance AND performance at the show. Via Rolling Out:

According to The Sun newspaper, the 34-year-old R&B star is being courted by MTV to perform a medley of her hits with a portion of the show being devoted entirely to her, but they are also planning a musical tribute if they can’t secure her.

“The organizers are in talks with her team to devote a portion of the show to her. Their main goal would be to have Beyonce perform a medley of hits, but as nothing has been locked in yet they are also considering reaching out to other stars to organise a tribute performance,” said a source.

The nominations are the most the star has ever received in a single year and puts her in contention to beat Madonna’s record of 20 gongs.

Beyonce’s main competition at the VMAs comes from Adele who has garnered an impressive seven nominations for her third album, 25.

It looks like after Bey’s headline making performance of “Freedom” at this summer’s BET Awards with Kendrick Lamar, MTV wants to make sure they get just as much hype and ratings that they know Queen Bey can deliver. If they do succeed in securing her and/or a tribute performance to her, who do you think should take part?
