Pink will perform a tribute to Dame Olivia Newton-John, her life and her career.

The star will perform at this year's American Music Awards.

She will perform at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles.

The event is set to take place on November 20th, and will see Pink paying tribute to Olivia Newton-John after her tragic death in August of breast cancer.

Pink will also perform her new single Never Gonna Not Dance Again live for the first time.

Also performing at the AMAs will be Stevie Wonder, Charlie Puth and Ari Lennox to pay tribute to Lionel Richie.

He will receive the Icon Award at this year's ceremony, and the trio will perform a medley of Lionel's songs.

He said: "I'm immensely grateful for a career that has taken me to places I never imagined that I'd go, from arenas worldwide to studio sets to the AMA stage.

"I can recall one of the first times I got to perform at the AMAs. It was to sing 'We Are the World' among the most iconic musicians of my generation, so it is surreal to be receiving this recognition 36 years later."

David Guetta and Bebe Rexha will perform, as well as Carrie Underwood, Yola and Imagine Dragons.
