MTV Video Music Awards: Taylor Swift Wins Video of the Year; Full Winners List

Taylor Swift won video of the year at the 2022 MTV Video Music Awards on Sunday night.

In her speech, she revealed she is dropping her new album on Oct. 21, with more details coming at midnight that night.

Swift set two records with the win: becoming the only artist ever to win three VMAs for video of the year and the first artist to win for a video they directed.

Swift also won the VMA for best longform video for “All Too Well (10 Minute Version) (Taylor’s Version),” starring Sadie Sink, whom Swift thanked in her speech, as well as the best direction award.

Lil Nas X and Harlow won best collaboration for “Industry Baby.” “And this one is for the champions,” Lil Nas X said onstage, quoting the song’s lyrics while accepting the award.

Harry Styles won album of the year for Harry’s House, accepting the VMA for album of the year at Madison Square Garden, where he was scheduled to perform that night. Lisa beat out the likes of BTS to take home the VMA for best K-pop, though BTS was named group of the year (they were not in attendance).

Lizzo won the VMA for “Video for Good” for “About Damn Time.” “I don’t know what ‘Video for Good’ means, but I know what your vote means … your vote means everything,” she said in her speech, adding: “Vote to change some of these laws that are oppressing us.” She also seemingly responded to comedian Aries Spears’ fat-shaming comments that recently went viral.

Bad Bunny became the first Latin artist to win artist of the year, moments before performing live from Yankee Stadium as part of his “Bad Bunny: World’s Hottest Tour,” marking MTV’s first-ever live remote VMAs performance to air from the stadium. Dove Cameron was named best new artist.

Johnny Depp made a few brief appearances with his face digitally superimposed on top of the helmet of a floating astronaut (the VMA trophy, nicknamed a “Moon Person,” is shaped like an astronaut). “I needed the work,” he joked.

Harlow opened the show with Fergie and a performance of “First Class” and “Glamorous,” followed by a performance from Lizzo. Other 2022 VMA performers include Eminem and Snoop Dogg, Bad Bunny, Kane Brown (the first male country artist to ever perform at the VMAs), Anitta, BLACKPINK, J Balvin, Måneskin, Marshmello x Khalid and Panic! At the Disco.

Instead of a traditional host, this year’s ceremony will feature three “emcees”: LL Cool J, Nicki Minaj and Jack Harlow. MTV said the trio will announce the show’s lineup of performers, presenters and winners while taking a “more innovative and unique approach” to the traditional hosting gig.

Minaj also received the Michael Jackson Video Vanguard Award, while Red Hot Chili Peppers took home the Global Icon Award at the show, which is set to air live from Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey, starting at 8 p.m. ET/PT.

Minaj and the Chili Peppers also performed at the show — and took home the awards for best hip-hop and best rock, respectively.
