Nicki Minaj, J. Cole & more to perform at 2012 NBA All-Star Game

If you didn’t get enough of Nicki Minaj’s unmistakably controversial performance during last week’s Grammys, lucky for you you’ll be able to catch her next weekend, as she will be the headlining act at this year’s NBA All-Star game in Orlando, Florida. Honestly, we were hoping for Jeremy Lin to get the nod, but what can ya do? In addition to the Young Money artist, other performers include Pitbull and Ne-Yo who will be performing during halftime on Sunday. Mary J. Blige, as she will sing the national anthem, and then J. Cole and Gym Class Heroes have gotten the pre-game slot. Also making an appearance during Saturday’s festivities will be Flo-Rida and will.i.am. So be sure to tune in next weekend to witness the expected Linsanity that is to occur.
