BILLY IDOL TO BE HONORED WITH THE LIFETIME ACHIEVEMENT AWARD AND PERFORM AT "THE 52ND AMERICAN MUSIC AWARDS," LIVE, MONDAY, MAY 25 AT 8:00 PM, ET, 5:00 PM, PT ON CBS

Queen Latifah Will Host the Star-Studded Annual Special, Which Airs Live from the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas

Tickets Available Now on AXS

CBS and Dick Clark Productions (DCP) announced that rock legend and 2026 Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee Billy Idol will be honored with the Lifetime Achievement Award at THE 52ND AMERICAN MUSIC AWARDS (AMAs), which will kick off summer with host Queen Latifah live from MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, the largest venue in the show's history, Monday, May 25 (8:00 PM, ET/5:00 PM, PT) on CBS Television Network and streaming on Paramount+*. Idol is being recognized for his incomparable career and body of work, unparalleled contributions to music and continued influence on generations of artists and fans. The punk icon will deliver a medley of some of his biggest hits, marking his first time on the AMAs stage since presenting in 2004 and his first AMAs performance ever. Previous recipients of the AMAs Lifetime Achievement Award include Diana Ross and Rod Stewart.

For almost 50 years, Billy Idol has been one of the defining faces and voices of rock 'n' roll. Between 1977 and 1981, Idol released three albums with Generation X as their camera-ready frontman. In 1982, with guitarist Steve Stevens at his side, he embarked on a transatlantic/trans-genre solo career that integrated the bold and simple lines of punk and rock 'n' roll decadence on songs like "Dancing with Myself," "White Wedding," "Rebel Yell," "Eyes Without a Face," "Cradle of Love" and more. Touring consistently around the world and showing no signs of slowing down, Idol released Dream Into It on Dark Horse Records in 2025, earning praise from fans and critics alike. In 2026, Idol released "Billy Idol Should Be Dead," the definitive documentary about his life and career.

The show will feature performances from International Artist Award of Excellence recipient KAROL G, Hootie & the Blowfish, KATSEYE, Keith Urban, Maluma, Riley Green, SOMBR, Teddy Swims, Teyana Taylor, Twenty One Pilots and more.

As one of music's most anticipated nights of the year, THE 52ND AMERICAN MUSIC AWARDS returns to CBS and Paramount+* to honor the most influential artists and songs of today alongside unforgettable performances and special moments in a multi-genre, cross-generational celebration of music.

Nominations for THE 52ND AMERICAN MUSIC AWARDS were announced last month. Taylor Swift leads with eight nominations, followed by Morgan Wallen, Olivia Dean, Sabrina Carpenter and SOMBR with seven each. Fan voting is now open via VoteAMAs.com and the @AMAs Instagram profile in all awards categories. Voting closed on Friday, May 8 at 11:59:59 AM, PT, with the exception of Social Song of the Year and Tour of the Year, which will remain open through the first 30 minutes of the AMAs broadcast.

Additional details, including more performers, presenters and special honorees for the 52nd AMAs will be announced in the coming weeks.

*Paramount+ Premium plan subscribers will have access to stream live via the live feed of their local CBS affiliate on the service, as well as on-demand. Paramount+ Essential subscribers will not have the option to stream live, but will have access to on-demand the day after the special airs.
