The singer - who is up for Best Pop Video for his single 'Nothin' On You' with B.O.B. - said that he is shocked by his mounting success.
"It's all happening so fast," he told MTV News.
"It's so surreal. I grew up watching the VMAs and seeing everyone doing their thing on it."
He continued: "It's kinda like the biggest stage of our generation, so to be nominated and get to perform... words cannot express."
The 27th annual MTV Video Music Awards will air on September 12.
