AceShowbiz - Chappell Roan and Sabrina Carpenter seemingly adored each other. On a recent livestream, the “Red Wine Supernova†singer shared her favorite songs off of Carpenter’s Short n’ Sweet album.
"I love her," Roan said of the "Please Please Please" singer, who covered Roan's "Goodluck, Babe!" in one of her performances. She further gushed, "I just love her whole - her whole project is just so thought out and so genuine. I just really love it. She does an awesome job."
On the other hand, the two musicians have been revealed to be among the first performers to be announced for the 2024 MTV Video Music Awards. Carpenter is a Grammy nominee this year, while Roan is up for Best New Artist at the VMAs.
The MTV VMAs were originally scheduled for September 10th, the same night as the first debate of the presidential election cycle between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump. However, MTV has moved the show back by one night, to September 11th, to avoid competing with the debate.
MTV did not explicitly state that the presidential debate was the reason for the change, but the network has a history of encouraging civic engagement and did not want to stand in the way of viewers becoming educated about the election.
Carpenter and Roan will be joined as performers by GloRilla, Camila Cabello and Rauw Alejandro. GloRilla is the "longest-charting female rap hitmaker of 2024," while Alejandro will premiere a track from his upcoming fifth album on the show. Cabello, the most veteran performer among the first five announced, has previously won four VMAs.
The MTV Video Music Awards will air live on September 11 at 8 P.M. ET/PT in 150 countries.
