Producers for the August 27th extravaganza announced the news moments ago.
As for why the star picked, the network said it’s her:
“trailblazing impact on music, pop culture, fashion and philanthropy.”
The Pop rebel will also perform at the event, which takes place live from The Forum in Los Angeles.
With this honor, Pink joins the coveted list of past Vanguard recipients including Michael Jackson, Janet Jackson, Madonna, Beyonce, Britney Spears, Justin Timberlake, Kanye West and Rihanna.
In another cool MTV tie-in, the channel will exclusively air the broadcast premiere of the ‘What about Us’ video.

Congrats to Pink!
Some may raise eyebrows, but we feel it’s deserved. She boasts a catalogue, videography, and success narrative that has been underrated for years. As such, we’re totally here for her receiving her dues.
