MTV's biggest night will be a must-watch!

On Friday, the 2022 MTV Video Music Awards announced artists Anitta, J Balvin, Marshmello x Khalid and Panic! at the Disco will be performing at the show later this month.

For Brazilian funk and pop sensation Anitta, 29, this award show will mark her VMA main stage debut. Just this year, the "Girl from Rio" singer released her chart-topping single "Envolver" which went viral on TikTok and earned her a Guinness Book of World Records certification as the first solo Latin artist to hit No. 1 on Spotify.

The singer is also up for her first VMA award in the best Latin category, making her the first Brazilian artist nominated for any category of the award show.

Colombian reggaeton star J Balvin, 37, will be making his return to the VMA since his 2019 performance of "Que Pretendes" with Bad Bunny. In this year's show, the singer will be making the world premiere of "Nivel de Perreo" with Ryan Castro.

The "La Canción" singer has been nominated for the Moon Person 13 times and has won a total of five awards in the past. He is also nominated for best Latin alongside Anitta. If he wins, J Balvin would become the most awarded Latin artist in VMA history.

Also announced was a performance from Marshmello, 30, and Khalid, 24. Together, the duo will take the stage for the TV debut of their newest collaboration "Numb." Marshmello, a music producer and DJ, will be making his VMA debut and is a five-time nominee at the award show.

Khalid is no stranger to the VMA stage. The "Location" singer was part of a memorable 2017 performance of "1-800-273-8255" with Logic and Alessia Cara. That night, the singer also took home the award for best new artist.

Also on the lineup for the show is Panic! at the Disco, a band returning to the VMA stage for the first time since 2018. In their performance, the pop rock band will premiere their new single "Middle of a Breakup," the title track of the forthcoming album Viva Las Vengeance.

The band has been previously nominated nine times, with their first win in 2005 for video of the year. This year, the band is nominated in the alternative video category.

"And this is only the beginning..." MTV said in their announcement on Twitter.
