Ladies and gentlemen, Kimye has officially arrived.

Before the stars were asked to take their seats and moments before Rihanna kicked off the night on stage, Kim Kardashian and Kanye West stepped onto the 2016 MTV Video Music Awards red carpet in another eye-catching look.

Kim, who is set to present later in the evening, wore a sheer black dress with various necklaces to match her hair created by Michael Silva using Kenra Professional haircare and ghd hair tools. Meanwhile, Kanye kept things casual in head-to-toe white.

As for where the reality star got glammed up beforehand, E! News has learned that Kim stayed inside a fabulous NYC apartment courtesy of Airbnb before showtime. 

Just hours before the red carpet opened up, the Keeping Up With the Kardashians star asked her Twitter followers what they want to see her wearing Sunday evening. "I can't decide on my VMA look!" she wrote on social media. "Casual chill vibes or dressy sexy? And blonde hair or dark?" Guess we know what you dolls wanted.

She also teased fans about who she will introduce inside Madison Square Garden. "A little hint, it's someone i am obsessed with!!!! LIKE OBSESSED!!!!!" she wrote. "I am obsessed with my husband, but its not him." Hmmmm

According to our sources, Kanye will have four minutes to do whatever he wants on stage this evening. But when E! News' Ken Baker sat down with the "Stronger" rapper during his first Saint Pablo Tour stop, he still had no idea what he was going to do.

What we can tell you is that it's been a jam-packed schedule for Kimye in the days leading up to MTV's annual awards show.

While Kanye has been performing on tour, Kim was back in Los Angeles visiting her man's art exhibit with Kendall Jenner. The display is based on the "Famous" music video that was released back in June. The finished product included Kim and Kanye lying in bed surrounded by a group of naked celebrities, including Chris Brown, Amber Rose, former President George W. Bush, and Donald Trump

As it turns out, "Famous" is nominated for both Video of the Year and Best Male Video of the Year. Who will win big? Stay tuned!
