Jessie J, Ariana Grande and Nicki Minaj have been confirmed to open this year's MTV VMAs.

The trio will run through their recent single 'Bang Bang' at the event on Sunday (August 24).

Jessie J commented: "When I was the VMA House Artist in 2011 I had a broken foot and I sat on the side stage dreaming about being on that main stage.

"So when I say that this performance is a dream come true for me, I truly mean it. And to be able to share this moment with superstars like Ariana and Nicki, it's going to be such an amazing night!"

Other performers on the night include Beyoncé, 5 Seconds of Summer and Usher.

'Bang Bang' meanwhile is due to feature on Jessie J's upcoming third album.
