Entertainment Tonight's Emmy party sponsored by People magazine—which typically brings a big-name headliner—announced today that Mary J. Blige will perform at the 13th annual event. After a move from Disney Hall in recent years, the party will take over Vibiana on September 20, following the Emmy telecast.
"When Entertainment Tonight throws an intimate party for TV’s A-list stars, you need an A-list performer, and no one fits that bill better than the iconic Mary J. Blige—she is musical royalty." said Linda Bell Blue, executive producer for Entertainment Tonight and The Insider, in a statement.
Last year, Billy Idol headlined. Past performers have included Prince, Duran Duran, and Earth, Wind and Fire.
