Shaboozey also performed “Cowgirl” from The Outlaw Cherie Lee & Other Western Tales<\/p>\n
\n\tShaboozey<\/a> took the stage at the 2026 MTV Video Music Awards<\/a> for a slick performance of \u201cHigh Noon\u201d and \u201cCowgirl\u201d alongside rapper Gunna<\/a>, marking the pair\u2019s debut performance of their runaway hit.<\/p>\n \n\tOpening in a saloon, Shaboozey rapped along to the lyrics of \u201cCowgirl\u201d as backup performers played cards, danced, and even got into a bar fight. Then, the scene went dark as a Wanted poster of Shaboozey was slapped down on the barroom\u2019s table. Shaboozey left the saloon and was joined by Gunna, who popped out of a jet-black carriage for their collaboration \u201cHigh Noon.\u201d The set was fiery; and that\u2019s not just because the saloon caught on fire at the end.<\/p>\n \t\tTrending Stories<\/p>\n \n\t\u201cCowgirl\u201d is nominated for two MTV VMAs this year: Best Country and Best Cinematography. \u201cCowgirl\u201d is the second single from Shaboozey\u2019s fourth studio album The Outlaw Cherie Lee & Other Western Tales, which arrived in late July. Produced by Sean Cook and Nevin Sastry, the guitar-laden track peaked at Number 11 on Billboard\u2018s U.S. Hot Country Songs chart and is accompanied by a Western-inspired music video co-directed by Shaboozey and Logan Meis, starring Summer House personality Ciara Miller (who introduced Shaboozey\u2019s performance tonight).<\/p>\n \n\tShaboozey is currently on the road as part of his headlining Outlaws Never Die Tour, which runs through Oct. 27, with remaining stops including Boston, Washington D.C., New York City, Philadelphia, Chicago, San Francisco, and a finale show in Los Angeles.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Shaboozey also performed “Cowgirl” from The Outlaw Cherie Lee & Other Western Tales Shaboozey took the stage at…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":908212,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[28],"tags":[64,63,134,40123,39807,476290,136,31469,476291],"class_list":["post-908211","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-music","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-entertainment","tag-gunna","tag-mtv-video-music-awards","tag-mtv-video-music-awards-2026","tag-music","tag-shaboozey","tag-vmas-2026"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/908211","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=908211"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/908211\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/908212"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=908211"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=908211"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=908211"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
