Ricky Martin delivered a blast from the past with a medley of hits at the 2025 MTV Video Music Awards on Sunday night (September 7th). He also received the VMAs’ first-ever Latin Icon award.

After being introduced by fellow Latin superstar J Balvin, Martin descended from the rafters and immediately jumped right into his signature tune, “Livin’ la Vida Loca.” He followed with a medley of other hits, including “Pégate,” “Shake Your Bon-Bon,” “Vente pa’ ca,” “María,” and “The Cup of Life.”

After his performance, he was presented the Latin Icon Award by pop star Jessica Simpson. Martin dedicated the award to his kids, and told the audience, “Thank you so much for your applause. I am addicted to your applause. That’s why I keep coming back.”
