If you were looking forward to Lorde's return to the VMAs stage, you will have to wait just a bit longer. 

The singer was expected to perform music from her third studio album, Solar Power, at the event.

According to a message shared on Twitter by the official VMAs account, the singer will no longer perform "due to a change in production elements".

"We love Lorde and cannot wait for her to perform on the VMA stage in the future!" the post continues. 

The MTV VMAs takes place on Sunday, 12 September, and will be hosted by Doja Cat.
