Taylor Swift will be in attendance at the 2019 MTV Video Music Awards after dropping her new album “Lover” on Aug. 23. She will be seated next to Cardi B, who she recently revealed she “f–king loves.”
The 2019 MTV Video Music Awards is almost here! The annual awards show will air live from the Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey, on Monday, August 26 at 8 p.m. ET/PT. Comedian Sebastian Maniscalco will host the show. Fans may recognize him from his sold-out performances at Radio City Music Hall. He was previously named the Comedian of the Year by Billboard. Taylor Swift and Ariana Grande are tied for the most nominations, with 10 nods each. Billie Eilish follows with the second-most nominations — nine. And, music’s newcomer Lil Nas X came in third with eight noms. Jonas Brothers will do a remote performance, which marks their first at the VMAs in more than a decade. Meanwhile, T-Swift will open the show, followed by performances from Camila Cabello with Shawn Mendes, J Balvin, Lil Nas X, Lizzo, Rosalía, Bad Bunny, A$AP Ferg, Big Sean, H.E.R., Normani and Ozuna. Missy Elliott — who will receive this year’s Michael Jackson Video Vanguard Award — will also take the stage to perform.
