The full list of 2023 MTV Video Music Awards winners has now been announced – and Taylor Swift has stolen the night.
There were plenty of water cooler worthy moments and major wins for some of the biggest artists in the world at this year’s VMAs.
But all the attention was on the Anti Hero singer, who made history as the first artist to win Video Of The Year four times.
Now holding 17 of the Moonmen statues, Taylor has now overtaken Beyoncé (16) in the overall standings but still trails behind Queen of Pop Madonna (20).
Elsewhere, host Nicki Minaj won Best Hip-Hop and Ice Spice took home Best New Artist.
Check out the full list of winners from the night below (although weirdly, some of them are still yet to be announced):
