Virginia's incredible Missy Elliott demonstrated that in addition to the fact that she was well late to win a MTV Video Vanguard grant, however why she's one of the most compelling Hip Hop stars ever.

During her presentation at the 2019 MTV Video Music Awards, the Virginia local started her set in a reflected space for "Throw It Back." She at that point changed things up by flying around in her trademark dark vinyl jumpsuit in a diversion of her "I Can't Stand The Rain" video.

Furthermore, later the artist, close by 6lack, brought home her first solo VMA for Best R&B Video for "Waves," sharing the success on Twitter.




Lil Nas X

Obviously, Lil Nas X is all in for the comical moments and laughter. He kicked things off with the indication that the record-breaking "Old Town Road" was doing admirably in the year 2073, on account of a news release illuminating watchers that he was taking a shot at the umpteenth remix. At that point the cutting edge setting was uncovered, demonstrating a phase that was lit up in different tones of blue and silver, while Lil Nas X himself wore what could best be portrayed as the mechanical humanoid cosmetics of a Transformer if an Autobot were to be a disco ball in its extra time.

The front of his as of late discharged EP, 7, woke up as a gigantic exhibit of modern structures and neon lights, like the tragic universe of the 1988 anime film, Akira. "Panini" sounds perfectly in this specific circumstance and, through the course of the exhibition, Lil Nas X drove the tour through the city with his mark blend of appeal and saucy vitality that interpreted through the creative movement.





Lizzo

Lizzo brought the house down at the 2019 MTV Video Music Awards Monday night and her exhibition drew the notice of one Rihanna, who slid into her DMs to share an incredibly NSFW discourse.

Addressing Entertainment Tonight after the show, Lizzo uncovered that she got a DM from Riri very quickly after her mixture execution of "Truth Hurts" and "Good as Hell." "She DM'ed me to tell me that I performed good," Lizzo said, "She said I f--ked the stage like it was my side bitch."

At that point, as though worried that possibly Rihanna wouldn't need her message getting out there, Lizzo immediately included, "Don't get mad, Rihanna. I am not trying to blow up your spot, but that was a hard-ass line! I might take that line."

Or on the other hand perhaps, and this could be the best everything being equal, they could share the line in a coordinated effort. Obviously, Rihanna is a fan so what appeal do we have to sign to get them in the studio like we as of late observed Lizzo with Justin Timberlake?






Taylor Swift

Swift was up for 10 honors the evening of the VMAs. She has noms for Video of the Year ("You Need to Calm Down"), Song of the Year ("You Need to Calm Down"), Best Collaboration ("ME!" including Brandon Urie), Best Pop Song ("You Need to Calm Down"), Best Video for Good ("You Need to Calm Down"), Best Direction ("You Need to Calm Down"), Best Visual Effects ("ME!"), Best Editing ("You Need to Calm Down"), Best Art Direction ("You Need to Calm Down"), and Best Cinematography ("You Need to Calm Down").

Swift gave an enthusiastic, sincere execution of the two melodies. Her companions Gigi Hadid and Camila Cabello were super into it.







Megan Thee Stallion

Because Hot Nerd Fall is quickly infringing does not mean the mid year's finished at this point. Only in front of the full appear, Megan Thee Stallion wrenched up the warmth outside of the VMAs to play out her breakout single, "Big Ole Freak." Later at night, she performed "Hot Girl Summer" and "Cash Shit."
