Katy Perry will receive the Video Vanguard Award at the 2024 MTV Video Music Awards next month, the network announced Thursday.
The “Woman’s World” singer is also set to deliver “a show-stopping, career-spanning medley of her biggest hits,” according to a press release, joining previously announced performers Sabrina Carpenter, Camila Cabello, Chappell Roan, GloRilla and Rauw Alejandro.
The pop star — who is scheduled to release her seventh studio album, “143,” on Sept. 20 — has won five VMAs since breaking out in 2008, including video of the year for “Firework” in 2011.
“Katy is a musical powerhouse and true pop culture icon. With her game-changing creative vision, she has become a global phenomenon and taken over the world’s biggest stages,” Paramount executive Bruce Gillmer said in a statement.
“Katy’s prowess will be on full display live on the VMAs with a can’t-miss, career-encompassing performance celebrating her biggest moments and chart-topping hits,” Gillmer added.
Taylor Swift tops this year’s list of VMA nominations with 10 — mostly for her “Fortnight” music video , plus artist of the year. Her collaborator Post Malone got nine nods, while Ariana Grande, Eminem and first-time nominee Carpenter, 25, have six apiece.
The 2024 VMAs air Wednesday, Sept. 11, at 8 p.m. ET on MTV from UBS Arena at Belmont Park in Elmont, NY.
