While presenting the best new artist, the two previous winners (Lipa in 2019, Megan in 2021) — recreated an iconic moment between Whitney Houston and Mariah Carey at the 1998 MTV Video Music Awards. Like Houston and Carey before them, the "Sweetest Pie" collaborators stepped on stage wearing matching outfits — only instead of the divas' understated brown dresses, Megan and Dua wore black and gold ensembles by Donatella Versace. "You stole my look!" Megan, 27, said, before Dua, 26, explained, "Well, I was told I had the exclusive. I'm going to have to have a talk with Donatella."

The designer herself then stepped onto the stage and ripped off fabric from the skirt to reveal two distinct looks just like Houston and Carey did more than 20 years ago. In the process, Donatella declared, "These are my girls!" "Thank you, Donatella," said Megan. "Now we both look like winners."

While chatting with Zane Lowe on Apple Music 1, Megan opened up about the track and how it came to be. "I be seeing everybody making mashups of me and Dua songs, and I'm like, 'No, this sounds too good. We have to make a song,'" she said. Noting that she got in contact with Lipa to collaborate, Megan explained, "I was like, 'Dua, I really want us to do a song, but I got to find that right beat. It has to be perfect.'" "So I didn't just send her no any track," she added. "I waited till I had the perfect one and I feel like we both came to a mutual agreement that it was greatness — and now we got 'Sweetest Pie.'
