    The responsibility of announcing the performances, speakers, and awards will go to the rap trio. This year’s event will have a fresh touch thanks to a special rotating model which will allow each MC to perform.

    The VMAs first featured a multiple-host model in 1984 with Dan Aykroyd and Bette Midler serving as the hosts, also host Marlon & Shawn Wayans took over in 2000.
