Cardi B and Megan went full tropical for their performance.

The MTV VMAs always draw plenty of attention from viewers and last night, of course, a lot of big headlines are being talked about. Justin Timberlake and Megan Thee Stallion's conversation is already a hot topic, as well as Taylor Swift racking up more awards for her trophy case. However, another storyline is Cardi B and Megan's "Bongos" performance. This was the first time the electric duo had been able to show off the viral track to a live audience and it did not disappoint.

Firstly, Cardi B made her extravagant entrance on a lowering down from a platform on top of a bright crystal ball. The backdrop of the stage included some fitting palm trees, shirtless men playing the bongos, and background dancers donning blue and green dresses. Cardi and Megan also shared similar outfits creating a cohesive look. Megan did not show up on stage until her verse began and eventually the two reconnected in the middle of all of the fiery dancing.
