21 Moments You Might Have Forgotten That Happened At The VMAs
So glad to be reminded.
1. Britney Spears changed out of a tuxedo and into a nude sparkling ensemble.
Two of the most polar opposite outfits and she rocked both?
2. Beyoncé was shown in the audience cheering enthusiastically.
Who did she get THIS excited about?!
3. Halsey made an incredible declaration.
I love her for this.
4. The cast of RuPaul's Drag Race replicated iconic VMA outfits.
Phi Phi O'Hara's take on the classic Lady Gaga meat dress had me gagged.
5. Maria Carey did a quick outfit change while presenting with Whitney Houston.
Honestly, looks incredible both ways.
6. Gigi Hadid danced like this with a glass of... water?
Ah, to be the glass that Gigi Hadid holds.
7. Blue Ivy was seen grooving while Beyoncé performed "Flawless."
Absolutely could not be any cuter.
8. Lizzo twerked on stage and took home several awards, including Best New Artist.
We didn't think we could love her more.
9. The Chainsmokers performed and this singing accidentally made it look like someone's face was being eaten.
It's all about the angles.
10. Chloe X Halle rocked some truly incredible nose jewelry on the red carpet.
They are art.
11. Tiffany Haddish danced next to Pete Davidson on stage and he did not know what to do.
She's the current queen of comedy and he's... Ariana Grande's ex-fiancé.
12. Justin Bieber got emotional after singing "What Do You Mean."
We love a man who owns his emotions.
13. Rihanna gave a show-stopping performance in a matching pink get-up with her backup dancers.
Now we want a pink tracksuit.
14. Jimmy Fallon announced Beyoncé's Video of the Year win for Formation with bleached white hair.
At least we know he's going to age well.
15. Cardi B thanked Jesus in her acceptance speech.
We could listen to her talk about anything.
16. Tana Mongeau took a play out of Britney's handbook and brought a snake to the VMAs.
Extra points when it doubles as a boa.
17. The US Women's Olympic Gymnastics Team presented Beyoncé with an award.
The fact that the award was for Best Female Video just makes it even better.
18. Key & Peele acted as news commentators and said some pretty outlandish stuff.
Don't even worry about the context.
19. Queen Latifah closed out the show in 2019 with Fetty Wap and Wyclef and the world wasn't ready.
We still aren't.
20. Fifth Harmony looked a little morose in their collective all-black look.
I'm sure they were happy to be there. It's just hard to tell.
21. Kanye West announced he would run for president in 2020 and we all though he was joking.
When does the joke end?
