Lizzo, Normani, Cardi, Megan, MISSY…need we say more?
The 2019 MTV Video Music Awards was one for the BOOKS. There’s no doubt about it that the VMAs have hosted some of the most iconic moments in entertainment history. We’re talking everything from Kanye interrupting Taylor Swift with his “Ima let you finish…”, Britney and Madonna swapping saliva, and BeyoncΓ© revealing she was pregnant with Blue Ivy.
From the time the stars hit the red carpet with their fire fits, all the way to the last moment of the night we were on the EDGE of our seats. Check out our list of our favorite moments of the night below:
