Lady Gaga joins the A-list list of artists for the 2020 MTV Video Music Awards today (August 13), but who should be added to the lineup as well?
Gaga was able to make her first appearance at the VMAs in seven years even more memorable when she released Ariana Grande, with whom she has tied for most VMA nominations this year with nine each. Seven of her individual nods are considered directly from her collaboration “Rain On Me” by Gaga’s No. 1 album Chromatica, those two would release the splash when they made it rain on stage.
Billie Eilish and Taylor Swift would also be great additions, as they are nominated as artists and directors. Two of the biggest pop stars have the potential to make VMA history by winning best direction for their own music video (“Xanny” and “The Man,” respectively) without a co-director, which happened only twice before.
Chloe x Halle knew how to think outside the backyard that the R&B duo used for their recent epic performances at home, so the Barclays Center is their oyster to bring Ungodly Hour to life. Since J Balvin was already set to perform, the Black Eyed Peas have been able to perform with him on stage for “RITMO (Bad Boys For Life)”, which is currently nominated for Best Collaboration.
The confirmed list of artists includes Gaga, Balvin, BTS, Doja Cat, The Weeknd, Roddy Ricch, Maluma and CNCO.
The 2020 MTV VMAs will broadcast live from the Barclays Center of Brooklyn on Sunday, August 30 at 8 p.m. EST.
So who else would love to take the stage that night? Vote below!
