GRAMMY-winning superstar Megan Thee Stallion is set to host the 2024 MTV Video Music Awards (VMAs), marking a significant milestone in her career. The event will take place on September 11 at the UBS Arena in New York. Megan becomes only the second person in VMA history to transition from performer to host of the main event.
2024 has been a breakthrough year for Megan, featuring the release of her latest album, MEGAN, and the successful “Hot Girl Summer Tour.” The album boasts collaborations with artists like Victoria Monét, GloRilla, UGK, and Big K.R.I.T., further establishing Megan’s dominance in the music industry.
Her latest single, “MAMUSHI,” has taken the world by storm, racking up over 150 million streams and reaching the top of Spotify’s Global Viral chart in Japan. Megan also secured her third Billboard Hot 100 No. 1 hit with “HISS,” making history as the first solo female rap song to debut at No. 1 on the Billboard Global 200.
At this year’s VMAs, Megan is up for five awards, including “Best Collaboration” with GloRilla and “Best Hip Hop.” She previously claimed the “Best Hip Hop” award in 2020 for her hit remix “Savage” featuring Beyoncé. This will be her first time hosting an awards show, adding another dimension to her already impressive career.
Megan recently wowed audiences at Vice President Kamala Harris’ rally in Atlanta, performing “MAMUSHI” in a standout royal blue pantsuit. As both a nominee and the evening’s host, Megan is expected to shine at the 2024 VMAs, a moment she confidently announced on social media, promising fans a night to remember.
