Megan Thee Stallion continues her winning streak in 2024, as she’s been announced as the host for this year’s MTV Video Music Awards. MTV made the big reveal on social media, stating, “@THEESTALLION IS HOSTING THEE 2024 #VMAs! 🔥 Trust us, you won’t want to miss the show! September 11th on @mtv! 👩🚀”. The VMAs is set to air live on September 11th at 8 p.m. ET.
This hosting gig adds to what’s already been a monumental year for the Houston rapper. Megan is also nominated for five awards at the VMAs, including “Best Collaboration,” “Best Hip-Hop,” “Best Direction,” “Best Visual Effects,” and “Best Art Direction.” Fans have expressed their excitement online, with one saying, “I ain’t watch the VMAs in years. I’m bout to throw a whole watch party 😂”. Another fan creatively commented, “The V M Ahs😍”.
However, not everyone is thrilled—Megan’s fans and Nicki Minaj’s supporters are exchanging jabs, with one person joking, “The barbs are angry 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂” and another taking a swipe at MTV, saying, “They couldn’t get Nicki Minaj so they had to settle and down grade for Megan.”
Megan’s achievements this year are impressive. She released her comeback album “MEGAN,” launched the Hot Girl Summer Tour, and even made a splash with an Amazon Prime Day jingle. Given her strong presence in both music and television, with appearances on shows like “Saturday Night Live” and “The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon,” it’s clear why MTV tapped her for this hosting role.
Megan and SZA both received five nominations, with Taylor Swift leading the pack with ten. Megan and SZA both received five nominations. Taylor Swift leads the pack with ten.
