Jessie J to Serve as VMA House Artist

Jessie J is headed to the U.S. for her first MTV Video Music Awards. The British pop export will serve as the house artist at this Sunday’s big show.


The “Price Tag” singer will perform hits off her debut Who You Are plus more during the live event. She follows in the footsteps of Wale, Mark Ronson, deadmau5, and the late DJ AM, who have all held down house band duties.

Pitbull has also been added to the lineup. Mr. Worldwide will perform his smash “Give Me Everything” with Ne-Yo. Other previously announced performers include Lady Gaga, Lil Wayne, Chris Brown, Bruno Mars, and more, while Nicki Minaj, Drake, Rick Ross, and Odd Future are scheduled to present.

The VMAs will air live on Sunday, August 28, from the Nokia Theatre in Los Angeles at 9 p.m. EST.
