 NEW YORK (VH1) - Queen Latifah will reign as host of this year's "VH1 Divas" concert, which will feature performances from Mary J. Blige , Jewel and Chaka Khan . The show is scheduled to air live at 9 p.m. EDT May 22 from the MGM Grand in Las Vegas . Other scheduled musicians will be announced later. While previous "Divas" shows have included duets, this year's will have even more of an emphasis on them. The concert series, now in its sixth year, raises money for VH1's Save the Music Foundation, which restores music programs in America's public schools. Latifah, the 33-year-old rapper and actress who was nominated this year for a supporting-actress Oscar for "Chicago," stars in the comedy "Bringing Down the House" with Steve Martin .
