Lady Gaga makes a comeback at MTV VMAs with new music and sets record nominations

The upcoming MTV Video Music Awards have caused a stir with the announcement of Lady Gaga’s return to the event, scheduled for September 7 at 8 p.m. EST. Gaga’s appearance comes as no surprise, given her impressive lead in nominations this year, with a total of 12 nods, attributed to the success of her singles ‘Die With a Smile,’ ‘Abracadabra,’ and her latest album ‘Mayhem.’

Not far behind Lady Gaga in terms of nominations are Bruno Mars with 11 nods and Kendrick Lamar with 10. Rose secured eight nominations, while Ariana Grande and The Weeknd each received seven. With Lady Gaga taking center stage, the lineup of performers for the evening promises to be nothing short of spectacular.

In addition to Lady Gaga, the audience can also expect stellar performances from a long list of stars, including Post Malone, Doja Cat, Conan Gray, Alex Warren, DJ Snake, Jelly Roll, J Balvin, Sombr, and Tate McRae. The iconic Mariah Carey will not only grace the audience with a performance but will also be honored with the prestigious Video Vanguard Award.

Adding to the excitement of the night, Busta Rhymes is set to receive the MTV VMA Rock the Bells Visionary Award, while Ricky Martin will make history by becoming the first artist to be presented with the Latin Icon Award. All these elements combined set the stage for what promises to be a memorable and remarkable evening at the VMAs.

Lady Gaga sparked fans’ interest recently by appearing in Tim Burton’s popular Netflix series ‘Wednesday.’ In the series, she portrays the enigmatic character Rosaline Rotwood, a teacher at the mysterious Nevermore Academy, whose past is intertwined with that of Wednesday Addams, played by Jenna Ortega. During the premiere event, she disclosed that her latest song, ‘The Dead Dance,’ is scheduled for release on September 3, coinciding with the launch of the second half of ‘Wednesday’ season two.

The news of Lady Gaga’s return and the incredible lineup of performers at this year’s VMAs have certainly piqued the interest of fans and the industry alike. As the countdown to the event begins, anticipation is high for what promises to be a night to remember in the world of music and entertainment.
