Britney Spears to Perform at 2016 MTV Video Music Awards
Britney Spears performs at the Billboard Music Awards at the T-Mobile Arena on May 22, 2016, in Las Vegas.
Britney Spears is headed back to the start. The "Clumsy" singer is the first confirmed performer for the Aug. 28 2016 MTV Video Music Awards, marking her return to the VMA stage for the first time in a decade. She'll be joined by her "Make Me" partner in crime, rapper G-Eazy, for the world premiere live performance of the single from her upcoming ninth studio album, Glory (Aug. 26).
Britney Spears and G-Eazy's 'Make Me' Has Arrived
Spears -- who has 28 VMA nominations and 5 wins -- announced the news via a video created by L.A.-based experimental director Radical Friend that calls back to some of the singer's iconic VMA performances from the past, including her 1999 debut medley of "Baby One More Time/ Tearing Up My Heart" with 'NSYNC and, of course, her infamous 2003 Madonna kiss.
