Lady Gaga could have a very big night at the 2025 MTV VMAs!
Gaga leads this year’s nominations list with 12 noms, including recognition in major categories like Video of the Year, Artist of the Year, and Best Album. She’s also been announced to perform at the show.
The event is being hosted by LL Cool J and the show will kick off at 8pm ET on Sunday night (September 7) at the UBS Arena in New York.
However, you might be wondering…how? Lady Gaga actually has a concert tonight (September 7) at Madison Square Garden at the exact same time as the live awards show.

Well, Gaga has apparently pre-recorded her performance! Fans on TikTok filmed her at her MSG concert this weekend performing her 2025 hit “Abracadabra” five times in a row. Apparently, they made an announcement before the September 6 Mayhem Ball tour performance that she would be performing something several times in a row for a special project.
So, to answer questions about whether or not she’s performing live…it seems not! But that does not necessarily mean Gaga won’t be incorporated into the show in some other fashion, live from her concert! We’ll have to wait and see!
