NEW YORK, Oct. 5 -- VH1 and Don Cornelius have signed an agreement which secures the network special rights to air the 10th Annual Soul Train Lady of Soul Awards, the 8th Annual Soul Train Christmas Starfest, and the 20th Annual Soul Train Music Awards after the specials' initial syndication across various VH1 channels in both the U.S. and the U.K., including VH1, VH1 Classic, VH1 Soul and VH1 UK.
