Beyonce To Receive Vanguard Award At The VMAs. But Mostly, YES, She Will Perform!

Umm, Beyonce will be performing at the MTV Video Music Awards... is anyone really , surprised? Bey is everywhere these days. In the wake of her surprise album last December Bey has been at every show and received every music award, basically. But Bey and MTV have always had a special relationship, ever since the Destiny’s Child days. Are you wondering what this is leading up to already? Here it is – Beyonce will receive the Vanguard Video award during this year’s VMAs.

But let’s get real for a second here. This isn’t the Oscars, it’s the VMAs. This is the show where Miley Cyrus twerked on Robin Thicke and Lady Gaga showed up in a dress, made entirely of raw meat. It ain’t about prestige here. It’s all about the show. So as happy as we are about Yonce’s latest honor, the biggest thing to look forward to is her performance. The last time Bey performed at the VMAs was in 2011 with Love on Top, but it’s been three years, one surprise album and a hugely successful tour since then. Everything is bound to be a lot bigger this time around. The VMAs will be broadcast on Sunday, 9/8c ET from The Forum in Inglewood, California.
