Of course R.Kelly will be making an appearance after the awards have been presented but I am not sure if I will be able to stay up late after my horrendous week! It is all going down at the Sandton Convention Centre from 17H30 Saturday 20th June 2009.
For those of you with more stamina than I, go and grab your tickets from Computicket and I will see you there.
