Before the main course, a couple of starters were served at the red carpet of the Barclays Center for the Pre-Show of the 2013 MTV Video Music Awards on Sunday, August 25th. US rising pop talents Ariana Grande and Austin Mahone performed their latest singles to entertain the live crowd and MTV viewers around the world who were waiting for the main show to kick off outside the Brooklyn venue. Watch their performances below!

Looking a fairytale princess, Ariana Grande performed a two-song setlist that featured her latest single, "Baby I", and smash hit "The Way", both cuts from her upcoming debut album "Yours Truly", due in stores September 3. As for Austin Mahone, the 17-year-old singer showed how when we're teenagers we sometimes don't make the best outfit choices, as he took the red carpet in a horrendous leathery ensemble, and wearing an unnecesary beanie, to perform his RedOne-produced song, "What About Love". How did he fare?. It was okay. It was more about dancing than singing, though. By the way, I applaud Austin's label's effort for promoting him like they're doing. Republic knows that in a few years he might be the 'next big thing'. VMAs pre-show was a major gig!
