Rising pop star Betty Who will make her television debut during the New Now Next Awards next month, Logo announced on Thursday, along with a handful of presenters.

Who will perform one of the tracks from her debut album “Take Me When You Go.” If she’s lucky, it just might launch her career, as it did for Lady Gaga, who made her television debut during the award show in 2008.

Who is also nominated in the best new musician (female) category alongside Iggy Azalea, Charli XCX, Mary Lambert and Meghan Trainor.

Presenters will include Laverne Cox, Charli XCX, Meghan Trainor, Nick Jonas, A Great Big World, Tyler Oakley and Lance Bass.

The New Now Next Awards will take place at Kimpton’s Surfcomber Miami, South Beach and premiere on Logo TV on Sunday, Dec. 7 at 8 p.m. ET/PT. The show will air again on MTV on Friday, Dec. 12 at 7 p.m. ET/PT.

“I’m so excited to be a part of this year’s New Now Next Awards, and it’s such an honor to have been nominated alongside such powerhouse ladies,” Who said in a statement.  “I’m such a fan of all the other women in the category so honestly just to be on the same list as them is so cool.”
