Only days after the release of his highly anticipated sophomore album Beauty Behind the Madness, The Weeknd brought a preview of his upcoming tour with a special performance at Sunday night’s MTV VMA’s!

Following a praise-like introduction from Jared Leto, the famed Canadian singer jumped on stage to dance his way through his hit single, “Can’t Feel My Face.”

Shuffling across a flame-engulfed stage while the crowd (including Kanye West, who just couldn’t hold his excitement for the song) joined in on the seemingly fun and sexually infused lyrics, The Weeknd is having more than just one hell of a weekend.
