Ain’t nobody gonna stop her! Kim Petras‘ VMAs showstopper starts now.
The singer-songwriter, 29, channeled “bubblegum pop” for her “sticky” appearance at the 2021 MTV Video Music Awards on Sunday, Sept. 12. Ahead of her VMAs Pre-Show performance, Petras arrived to the red carpet in a bright pink Mini Cooper that was driven by a special chauffeur: her pal Paris Hilton.
However, you may not have recognized her, because Petras was all dolled up in a Richard Quinn dress with a mysterious black latex face mask and suit by VEX, which hid her identity. She also accessorized with Roger Vivier heels and a rosey ring by Fabergé.
“I love Richard Quinn and I love the sex with the cross, I feel like it makes a statement,” the artist told Entertainment Tonight. “I feel like a lot of stuff has been happening to sex workers and people being taken off platforms and stuff. It’s unnecessary.”
She went on, “Yeah that’s kind of the thing, the religious stuff and then the freaky stuff.”
Petras said in a pre-recorded MTV video that the inspiration for tonight’s concert came to her after performing at Lollapalooza in Chicago. “I woke up the next morning and I was like, ‘I have the idea.’ A little would be that it’s sticky and it’s pure pop. It’s bubblegum pop, you could say,” she shared.
