Taylor Swift ha estat la gran vencedora dels Premis MTV VMA, en emportar-se els de Vídeo de l’any per Bad Blood, vídeo femení i vídeo pop per Blank Space i millor col·laboració amb Kendrick Lamar. Precisament aquest últim, també partia com un dels artistes amb més nominacions, però es va haver de conformar amb 4 dels 13 premis als quals optava.
El millor vídeo masculí, va ser per Uptown Funk de Mark Ronson & Bruno Mars, mentre que el millor en hip hop se’l va endur Nicki Minaj per Anaconda.
Fall Out Boy van triomfar a l’apartat de rock amb Uma Thurman i 5 Seconds of Summer van derrotar pesos pesants com Major Lazer amb Lean On, a la cançó de l’estiu per She’s Kinda Hot.
La gala ens va deixar moltes sorpreses, una de les quals un nou disc de Miley Cyrus, o la presentació d’alguns nous videoclips, com el de Justin Bieber o Taylor Swift.
Evidentment si Miley Cyrus presentava, estava clar que alguna havia de passar. La cantant va esquivar la censura i va ensenyar un pit, va mostrar tota classe d’indumentàries, o es va fer un selfie, tot cridant “marihuana”.
Un altre dels moments de la nit, el va protagonitzar Kanye West, en criticar a la cadena que emetia la gala en només buscar audiència i va aprofitar que presentarà la seva candidatura per ser President dels Estats Units, l’any 2020.
També van haver-hi actuacions musicals i moments molt comentats com la col·laboració entre Taylor Swift i Nicki Minaj, Justin Bieber (que es va posar a plorar, després de l’ovació del públic), que va interpretar el seu número 1 What do you mean? i Where Are Ü Now?
