Megan Thee Stallion Set To Host 2024 MTV VMAs Awards Show On Sept. 11.

"Megan Thee Stallion has been tapped to host the 2024 MTV Video Music Awards, set to take place Sept. 11.

This will mark Megan’s first-ever awards show hosting gig, coming on the heels of her five nominations at this year’s VMAs, including best collaboration with tourmate GloRilla and best hip-hop, the category she last won in 2020 for “Savage.” She has previously won two VMAs and three Grammys, among other accolades.

Megan is no stranger to hosting duties, though, having previously hosted Saturday Night Live and served as co-host for The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.

Earlier this year, Megan released a new album, MEGAN, that includes collaborations with Victoria Monet, GloRilla, UGK, Big K.R.I.T., Kyle Richh and Yuki Chiba.

The 2024 VMAs will air live at 8 p.m. ET/PT on Wednesday, Sept. 11, from New York’s UBS Arena. 

As previously announced, Katy Perry is set to receive this year’s Video Vanguard Award and will perform a medley of her hits. Other performers will include Benson Boone, Camila Cabello, Chappell Roan, GloRilla, Halsey, Lenny Kravitz, Lisa, Rauw Alejandro and Sabrina Carpenter.

Taylor Swift leads the nominees with a total of 10 noms, followed by Post Malone with nine; Ariana Grande, Eminem and Sabrina Carpenter with six apiece; Megan and SZA with five each; and Lisa, Olivia Rodrigo and Teddy Swims with four each. Fans can vote online in 15 gender-neutral categories through Aug. 30.

MTV said that, in observance of the 23rd anniversary of 9/11, MTV will again support the nonprofit 9/11 Day, which organizes the September 11 National Day of Service and Remembrance, and Tuesday’s Children, which serves the families of 9/11.

The VMAs are executive produced by Bruce Gillmer and Den of Thieves co-founder Jesse Ignjatovic, with Barb Bialkowski as co-executive producer. Alicia Portugal and Jackie Barba are executives in charge of production, Wendy Plaut is executive in charge of celebrity talent, and Lisa Lauricella is music talent executive.
