Megan Thee Stallion is taking the leap into live hosting with the MTV VMAs taking place on Wednesday, September 11.
Stallion is a 2x “VMAs” winner and is up for 5 nominations this year, including “Best Collaboration” with tourmate GloRilla and “Best Hip Hop,” the same category she last won in 2020 for her chart-topper “Savage.”
Her first MTV Moon Person was in 2019 for “Best Power Anthem,” scoring a win as a first-time nominee for her smash “Hot Girl Summer.”
Megan’s ability to connect with a live audience is an established skill, but I’m looking forward to seeing her new responsibility of hosting an event.
