The Jennifer Lopez and Iggy Azalea collaboration ‘Booty”, as well as Fergie’s new song “L.A. LOVE” both have videos that feature provocative booty shaking.
Show producers are hoping the artists will tone it down somewhat, but it is a live show so you never know what will happen.
Other artists scheduled to perform include Nicki Minaj, One Direction, 5 Seconds of Summer, Ariana Grande, Lil Wayne, Imagine Dragons and more.
ABC has also revealed that the ever popular Taylor Swift is scheduled to receive the first ever “Dick Clark Award For Excellence”.
Swift will perform her new single “Blank Space” to open the show.
