Hundreds of the biggest names in music and pop culture descended upon New York’s UBS Arena tonight for this year’s VMAs, capping off an eventful New York Fashion Week. Megan Thee Stallion was on double duty at the 2024 VMAs as both host and performer; the VMAs turned 40 years old this year, and the milestone ceremony kicked off with an electric Pre-Show and stunning black carpet, featuring a performance from international sensations LE SSERAFIM.
The K-pop group was nominated for MTV Push Performance of the Year — which they won! — their very first VMAs nomination. The group joined more than 20 other acts and musicians as first-time nominees, including Tyla, Benson Boone, Shaboozey, Chappell Roan, RAYE, Coco Jones, Gracie Abrams, Burna Boy, NCT Dream, Gunna, Rauw Alejandro, Sexyy Red, Victoria Monét, and many, many more.
Leading the nominations this year are Taylor Swift with 12 total nods. Swift could tie with or break Beyoncé’s record for the most VMAs ever won: Bey’s current record is 25 VMAs as a solo artist and 29 overall wins. Per VegasInsider, with Swift winning seven awards in total during the ceremony, she is now the most awarded artist at the VMAs as a solo artist and the most awarded artist in VMAs history overall with a total of 30 wins.
Swift also almost broke Peter Gabriel’s record for winning the most VMAs in one night: Gabriel set the record with 10, and at the 2023 VMAs, Swift won 9, becoming the female artist with the most VMA wins in a single night. Phew…
