Hollywood and music stars have begun arriving at the 2026 MTV Video Music Awards, with Chloe Bailey, Harry Jowsey and Lisa Rinna among the early arrivals outside the Peacock Theater in downtown Los Angeles.
Bailey and Jowsey posed for photographers as the red carpet started to fill, while Rinna drew attention in an ivory gown featuring a sculpted bust, a thigh-high slit and a long train draped from one shoulder.
The early arrivals have included a mix of music stars and reality television personalities, with more guests expected before the ceremony begins.
Adam Lambert made one of the most dramatic entrances in an all-black cape that trailed behind him. He completed the look with a spiky headpiece.
The 2026 VMAs are returning to Los Angeles for the first time since 2017, with Snoop Dogg due to host the ceremony.
Madonna is set to open the show as the arrivals continue and the carpet fills with the biggest names attending the event.
