Taylor Swift got 2024 VMAs
By Cynthia Montojo
Taylor Swift won most Moonpersons up for grabs that evening. This piece of news is starting to get boring. Girl is talented, hardworking and likeable. Most importance at VMAs where fans vote for their favorites to win and she really has millions of them.
MTV Video Music Awards (VMAs) was held last Sept. 12 at UBS Arena in New York. It was fun, entertaining star-studded event honored best of music and accompanying videos of past 12 months.
Taylor who had 12 nominations brought home seven trophies, biggest haul of the night and also broke some records. She now has 30 VMA Moonpersons at home, the most by any other artist. Beyoncé also has 30 but two of them are for her work with Destiny’s Child and two for The Carters. Taylor was again Artist of the Year and for Fortnight, her collaboration with Post Malone, she won top plum, Burger King Video of the Year Award. She also won this last year for Anti-Hero and for All Too Well, long version, in 2022.
Fortnight also won for Best Direction, Taylor’s second after Anti-Hero; Best Collaboration; Best Pop Video; Best Cinematography and not surprisingly, for Song of the Summer. Thanks to Fortnight, Malone also got most awards for male artist at this edition of VMAs.
Downplayed by Taylor’s wins is the fact that VMAs is marking its 40th anniversary this year. That is why show featured nods to memorable performances and images from the past.
Opener Eminem did medley of his hits surrounded with hundreds of his Shady look-alikes just like he did in 2000. Special category named Iconic had Video Vanguard of the Year winner Katy Perry besting Madonna’s Like a Virgin; Taylor’s You Belong with Me; Miley Cyrus twerking with Robin Thicke; and Michael Jackson kissing Lisa Marie Presley.
Rapper-turned-actor LL Cool J, first Vanguard winner was also present to perform rousing hip-hop number with classic acts Def Jam and Public Enemy. Then event’s able host Megan Thee Stallion paid homage to Britney Spears with I’m a Slave for You draped in albino python.
Kids were also treated to something they love. This year’s first time winner Sabrina Carpenter performed effervescent medley of her hit songs, Espresso, Taste and Please Please Please with aliens and Moonman in tow.
