• Here are all the recipients of the lifetime achievement award.

Despite the shaky rollout of her new album, Katy Perry will become the latest star to receive MTV’s Video Vanguard Award at this year’s Video Music Awards.

The Video Vanguard Award was introduced at the first VMAs in 1984 as the ceremony’s highest honor — essentially MTV’s version of a lifetime achievement award.

Perry will also perform a medley of her biggest hits at New York’s UBS Arena on Wednesday, September 11.
