Raye delivered a red-hot rendition of her hit song “Where is My Husband!” at the 2026 MTV Video Music Awards Sunday night.
The singer, dressed in all red, much like in the track’s music video, was surrounded by her backup singers for a lively performance of the song, which has taken over social media this past year. Sunday’s appearance marked her VMAs performance debut.
Hosted by Snoop Dogg, the 2026 MTV VMAs aired on CBS and simulcasts on MTV. The show is taking place live from Los Angeles — well, almost live. The Ravens-Cowboys game on CBS delayed the televised start of the show by roughly 20 minutes; however, the ceremony started in person on time. Meaning those in the audience in L.A. are seeing what happens before the viewers at home do.
It’s the first time the award show has taken place in L.A. in nearly a decade — the last time being in 2017 when Katy Perry hosted the ceremony at The Forum. The ceremony is produced by Gunpowder & Sky. Van Toffler serves as producer. Jesse Ignjatovic of Den of Thieves, Barb Bialkowski and Bruce Gillmer serve as executive producers alongside Barry Barclay and Floris Bauer. Melanie Block co-executive produces, while Gary Lanvy serves as co-producer. Snoop also executive produces alongside producers Sara Ramaker and Jasmin Ratansi. Jen Proctor serves as executive talent producer.
The 2026 VMAs kicked off with a cameo-filled performance from pop icon Madonna — Sabrina Carpenter, Charli XCX, Sombr, Seth Rogan and more made appearances throughout, with the first two performing alongside Madonna. It was the first time the legendary singer has performed at the award show in 23 years.
Other performers at the show included Lisa, Sienna Spiro, GENER8ION, Kacey Musgraves, Teddy Swims, Sombr, Gunna and Yung Lean and more. Taylor Swift received the inaugural MTV VMA Artist Director Honors. Nirvana was honored with the iconic video vanguard award. The show also included tributes for the late Dolly Parton and George Michael.
