Today we've revealed who'll be officially getting the 2017 VMA party started, performing live from the red carpet pre-show this weekend...

Bleachers, 'Best New Artist' nominee Khalid, and Cardi B will hit take the stage live from the "Fabulous" Forum in LA ahead of the main show on Sunday!

View the lyrics
So you're still thinking of me
Just like I know you should
I can not give you everything, you know I wish I could
I'm so high at the moment
I'm so caught up in this
Yeah, we're just young, dumb and broke
But we still got love to give

While we're young, dumb
Young, young, dumb and broke
Young, dumb
Young, young, dumb and broke
Young, dumb
Young, young dumb and broke
Young, dumb, broke high school kids
Ya-da-da da-da da-da-da
Ya-da-da da-da da-da
Ya-da-da da-da-da da-da
Young, dumb, broke high school kids

We have so much in common
We argue all the time
You always say I'm wrong
I'm pretty sure I'm right
What's fun about commitment?
When we have our life to live
Yeah, we're just young, dumb and broke
But we still got love to give

While we're young, dumb
Young, young, dumb and broke
Young, dumb
Young, young, dumb and broke
Young, dumb
Young, young dumb and broke
Young, dumb, broke high school kids
Ya-da-da da-da da-da-da
Ya-da-da da-da da-da
Ya-da-da da-da da-da-da
Young, dumb, broke high school kids

Jump and we think, leave it all in the game of love, love
Run into sin, do it all in the name of fun, fun
Woo-oo-oo

I'm so high at the moment
I'm so caught up in this
Yeah, we're just young, dumb and broke
But we still got love to give

While we're young, dumb
Young, young, dumb and broke
Young, dumb
Young, young, dumb and broke
Young, dumb
Young, young dumb and broke
Young, dumb, broke high school kids
Ya-da-da da-da da-da-da
Ya-da-da da-da da-da
Ya-da-da da-da da-da-da
Young, dumb, broke high school kids

Ya-da-da da-da da-da-da
Ya-da-da da-da da-da
Ya-da-da da-da da-da-da
Young, dumb, broke high school kids
