They’ve actually never gotten to see me perform live,” Sabrina Carpenter tells Vogue of her dogs, Goodwin and Louie, “which sucks for them because I think they’d like it.”

Hot off her legendary headlining set at Lollapalooza, Sabrina is returning to the VMAs after the release of her seventh album, Man’s Best Friend. Last year, she hit the main stage for the first time to perform a medley of tracks off Short n’ Sweet. She’s also up for eight awards this year, including Video of the Year for “Manchild.”

Sombr, Alex Warren and J Balvin featuring DJ Snake will also take the stage at New York's UBS Arena for the annual music event, airing live for the first time on CBS as well as longtime home MTV.
