Welcome back! Lopez made a grand return to the stage after being honored with the esteemed Vanguard Award in 2018. She came to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the award show with great enthusiasm and energy. During her speech, she wished MTV a happy 40th birthday and expressed her delight in attending the VMAs in her hometown. The 2021 ceremony took place at Barclays, which was a significant event after an eight-year hiatus. JLo then revealed that she would be presenting the Song Of The Year award, which Olivia Rodrigo won for her chart-topping song, Driver’s License. Despite facing stiff competition from renowned artists like Bruno Mars w/ Anderson Paak, BTS, Cardi B ft. Megan Thee Stallion, Dua Lipa, and 4kGoldn ft. iann dior, Olivia Rodrigo emerged victorious and took home the much-coveted award.
Thrilled and over the moon: MTV, happy 40th anniversary! The VMAs celebration is happening tonight in my hometown, and I’m here to join in the fun. Being part of this momentous occasion feels absolutely amazing.
Fresh: Choosing to portray a vibrant vibe, she dressed in a mini skirt bedazzled with gems and latticed panels that gave a glimpse of her gorgeous legs.
Let’s get started! During the 40th annual show, Lopez had the privilege of presenting the Song Of The Year award. This was quite unexpected for many, as she had recently been in Venice, Italy with her partner Ben Affleck to support him during the premiere of his latest movie, The Last Duel. Despite making their first public appearance on the red carpet there, the lovebirds returned to New York City on September 11th to attend the Met Gala on September 13th. While it was initially thought that Affleck had a work commitment to attend to, it seems that the couple may still make an appearance together at the Metropolitan Museum.
And the winner of the ultimate prize has been revealed! Olivia Rodrigo has taken home the prestigious Song Of The Year award for her emotional hit, Driver’s License.
Observing a heartwarming scene: The duo was seen embracing each other in a warm hug, followed by JLo gesturing towards the crowd.
“Let’s do this!” exclaimed Jennifer Lopez as she gave fans a sneak peek behind-the-scenes on social media with the hashtag #VMAS.

The three-hour extravaganza was skillfully hosted by Doja Cat and featured performances by some of the biggest names in the music industry, like Justin Bieber, The Kid Laroi, Camila Cabello, Kacey Musgraves, and Lil Nas X. Lopez made a grand entrance in a luxurious sprinter van and decided to skip the red carpet to keep her arrival a surprise prior to her performance.
