You didn't think MTV would have a party and not invite Usher, did you? The 2010 Video Music Awards just got bigger, with the addition of Ush to the list of performers at the September 12 show, as well as Paramore, who are slated to give a special performance during the event hosted by "Chelsea Lately" star comedian Chelsea Handler.
"It is an honor to once again be a part of the MTV Video Music Awards," said Usher in a statement announcing his first performance at the VMAs since a rain-soaked trip through "Yeah!" back in 2004.

I look forward to making it a night to remember."Usher, who just this week dropped the sequel to his hit Raymond v.
