Madonna didn't either

[Kiss It Better]

Kanye and everybody before Britney also didn't perform, in fact JT was the first to perform the medley, hence why it was iconic

No, in fact it use to be the norm for the recipient not to perform

[Onyxmage]

No, Madonna didnt perform either.

Yes, back in the day the Video Vanguard award used to be an exclusive award for the eternal A-List elite. 

 

But after 2016 it turned into a "Who has something to promote?" award.
