Camila Cabello is back to black — literally — at the 2024 MTV Video Music Awards.
Cabello, 27, stunned on the Wednesday, September 11, red carpet in a black strapless Tony Ward gown with a lengthy lace veil and a tangle of choker necklaces, one of which featured a cross pendant.
Cabello’s VMAs appearance also marked her return to her signature, jet-black locks after going blonde in February.

At the awards ceremony, Cabello is up for two Moon People trophies in the Best Pop and Best Trending Video categories. She will also hit New York’s UBS Arena stage on Wednesday to perform.
Cabello’s ex-boyfriend Shawn Mendes will also hit the stage at the VMAs, stepping out on the red carpet in a black suit. Another ex of 26-year-old Mendes, Sabrina Carpenter, is also in the house for the ceremony. She stepped out in a vintage Bob Mackie gown. (It is speculated that Carpenter’s Short ’n Sweet album was inspired by the trio’s alleged love triangle.)
