I can definitely see Lizzo getting a performance slot, but it seems like most A-listers are burnt out on this ceremony (for good reason). I just can't see Billie Eilish performing here, though stranger things have happened. Maybe a Shawn Mendes & Camila Cabello performance because of course they need to parade their totally real relationship around. Halsey might be a strong option too if she has another track waiting in the wings. Other than them, they're probably going to dig in the barrel for performers and bank on Taylor being enough to bring in the viewers. I would call Travis Scott, Shawn Mendes, Panic at the Disco and Post Malone as A listers. They're male of course PATD is more like a B Especially this time last year. "High Hopes" hadn't even blown up yet.

I think Shawn and Camila are very likely to perform. Taylor was obvious.

I can't even remember. Maybe the Miley/Thicke performance? It's iconic for all the wrong reasons. The most memorable thing about last year's was Madonna's terrible "tribute" to Aretha. I enjoyed the 2016 show the most out of the last few years. Rihanna and Bey killed it that year.

Gil Duldulao (Janet's choreographer) posted a pic of himself and Normani on his Insta story with the caption 'kill it at MTV @normani,' so that is likely confirmation she will be performing at the show. Lizzo did Juice at the MTV Movie Awards, which I took as an indication that she was saving Truth Hurts for the VMAs. I think Ed will be there, if not with Justin then with Khalid. Shawn/Camila are pretty much a given. I would think Billie will be there, too. I don't know why people think she wouldn't be the type to perform at the VMAs? She would be no more out of place than Avril Lavigne in 2002. She's never performed at an award show before so this one would be a good place to get that big-stage experience in before moving on to the shows that really matter. But also, I have a hard time believing the VMAs gave her all those nominations just for her to not show up. I can definitely see Lizzo getting a performance slot, but it seems like most A-listers are burnt out on this ceremony (for good reason). Actually I think part of the problem is that the feeling is likely mutual. These celebs are over it and not hustling for the spots, but most of the ones we would all universally agree to be A-list are long in the tooth and not the new generation's heroes anyway. Invite too many of them and you risk the show feeling more like 2009 than 2019, and not in an intentional-throwback way. Problem is, this leaves a large gap of star power as the stars on the rise aren't on that level, so their names don't intrigue or excite people at large (yet).

Well deserved!
I will still Youtube her performance and speech. I won't stand two hours of non-sense just for her.

Missy was clearly the best pick for this award - and has been for the last couple years. Sheβs a master of the visual and baby stans can sit.
