    Lenny Kravitz, John Travolta and Billy Ray Cyrus will be among the presenters at the MTV Video Music Awards (VMAs)

    The trio will be handing out the prizes at the Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey, on Monday (27.08.19), along with the likes of 'Queer Eye' star Jonathan Van Ness, Keke Palmer, Salt-N-Pepa, Rick Ross, Ice-T, and former Olympic skier Lindsey Vonn


    And they won't be the only stars giving out the iconic Moon People statuettes as Hailee Steinfeld, Victor Cruz, Megan Thee Stallion, French Montana, P.K. Subban, Rebe Rexha and a number of players from the US women's soccer team will also be on presenting duty.

    In addition, a number of performers have been added to the entertainment schedule, with Normani, Big Sean featuring A$AP Ferg, H.E.R. and Ozuna all new additions to the bill.

    They will join the previously-announced Taylor Swift, Jonas Brothers, Camila Cabello, Shawn Mendes, Bad Bunny, J Balvin, Lil Nas X, Lizzo, Rosalía and Vanguard Award recipient Milly Elliott in singing at the show.

    Katy Perry recently denied reports she is set to perform at the VMAs.

    Speaking on an Instagram Stories Q&A with her fans, she said: "I am not performing on the VMAs, so not everything you read on the internet is true. Go figure. I personally think "www" stands for wild wild west ... I always say if it doesn't come from me, take it with a grain of Himalayan salt."

    And Miley Cyrus has also confirmed she will not be performing at the spectacle.

    A fan wrote on Instagram: "Guess I'm not watching the VMAS this year... unless Miley performs."

    She replied: "No f***in way.(sic)"

    Anna Faris is desperate for Lil' Kim to appear on her podcast.

    The 42-year-old actress has been a big fan of the rapper since seeing her on the red carpet at the MTV Movie Awards in 2001 and she's urged the 'Lady Marmalade' hitmaker to join her on 'Unqualified' when it returns next month.

    She recalled: "Lil' Kim was right behind me ... and she was wearing only pasties.

    "[I was] totally overwhelmed in general [to be there]. I was like, 'That is Lil' Kim. Lil' Kim is five feet away from me' ... I just wanted to hug her.

    "I was already a huge fan, but you know, she's a baller."

    Addressing Kim directly, she added: "Where are you, Lil' Kim?! Please, come on!"

    And it isn't just Kim who Anna is keen to have as a guest on the show because she'd also love to chat with Chrissy Teigen - who has children Luna, three, and Miles, 15 months, with husband John Legend - because the 'Lip Sync Battle' star isn't afraid to be candid.

    She told 'Access Hollywood': "Chrissy Teigen. She's so honest, I love her. Chrissy, will you be on my podcast? I've been trying to get her, too."

    With the return of the podcast in mid-September, the 'Mom' star admitted things will be slightly different.

    She teased: "We've changed a couple of things format-wise."

    Meanwhile, the 'Scary Movie' star admitted she regularly falls victim to "booby traps" set by her and ex-husband Chris Pratt's seven-year-old son, Jack.

    She said: "Both Chris and I work hard at developing his imagination.

    "I'm always tripping in the middle of the night. I don't know if you've ever stepped on a LEGO, but I know that parents out there can feel my pain."
