Anitta just pulled off the ultimate “here comes the bride” moment at the 2024 MTV Video Music Awards, making jaws drop at the UBS Arena in Elmont, New York, on Wednesday (September 11). The Brazilian superstar, 31 years young and fabulous, rolled up looking like she was either ready to say “I do” or “I’m here to slay.” Either way, she nailed it.
Now, you might think, “Is she getting hitched on the VMAs red carpet?” Nope, but she is getting on stage! Anitta’s not just there to show off her bridal vibes; she’s one of the night’s performers, and guess what? She’s also got some nominations under her belt! Because why settle for one moment of glory when you can have all the moments?
Joining her on this star-studded walk down the (red) aisle were none other than Fat Joe, DJ Khaled, and Tiago PZK. And these fine gentlemen aren’t just carpet ornaments — they’re set to help Anitta turn the VMAs into the ultimate party with a performance of “Paradise.” Yup, if you weren’t already excited, buckle up, because it’s about to get wild.
But back to the big question: why the bridal look? Was it a subtle hint? A secret wedding? An invitation for us all to RSVP? Anitta, ever the queen of mystery, dropped a cheeky little hint: “It’s a little spoiler of something.” Oh, come on, Anitta! We’re on the edge of our seats! But alas, she zipped those lips faster than a dress fitting gone wrong, so we’ll just have to wait and see.
In case that’s not enough to keep you glued to your screen, Anitta is nominated for Best Latin and Best Editing for her video “Mil Veces.” Editing AND Latin flavor? She’s basically a multi-tasking superhero.
And if that’s not enough spice for one evening, the entire shebang will be hosted by none other than Megan Thee Stallion. Prepare for a night of wild fashion, epic performances, and more surprises than your aunt’s wedding reception.
Oh, and FYI: Anitta strutted in wearing a Dolce & Gabbana masterpiece, accessorized with some Suzanne Kalan bling. So, yeah, she’s basically out here saying, “I’m ready to perform AND throw the bouquet.” What a legend!
