Here's 5 reasons why you're going to want to tune in. Starting with...

1. Tracy Morgan is hosting. Random, maybe, considering he's a comedian and not a musician. But he is funny, and we'll watch anything that's funny. And makes fun of Justin Bieber (in a loving way, of course).

3. Miley Cyrus will be revealing some major news. Miley's been pretty vague about what she's going to do at the Billboards, but she's been tweeting and Facebooking up a storm about the huge announcement around her new single, "We Can't Stop." Will she perform it? Play a snippet? Show us a music video? So many possiblities.

5. Madonna is getting honored. Basically every day of Madge's life is an honor, but the Billboards are presenting Madge with the Top Touring Artist award because her MDNA tour was the biggest-selling concert tour of 2012. No big deal. Oh yeah, and Prince is getting honored, too.
