Taylor Swift became the most-awarded musician in VMAs history at the annual MTV awards show
Fashion took center stage Wednesday at the UBS Arena in Elmont, New York for the annual MTV VMAs.
Taylor Swift sported a plaid Christian Dior gown with black shorts and matching black boots for the musical affair where she leads nods with 10 nominations, followed closely by her recent collaborator, Post Malone, who’s up for nine awards. The two took home the first award of the night for best collaborator for their song, “Fortnight.”
“Waking up this morning in New York on Sept. 11, I’ve just been thinking about what happened 23 years ago, everyone who lost a loved one and everyone that we lost,” Swift said while accepting the award. “And that is the most important thing about today and everything that happens tonight falls behind that.”
Swift made history at the VMAs by winning video of the year and is now the most-awarded musician in VMAs history.
Katy Perry flashed her abs wearing a creamy Who Decides War tattered top and skirt. She was joined on the black carpet by her fiancé, Orlando Bloom.
The “Pirates of the Caribbean” star introduced his future bride onto the stage to perform before accepting her video vanguard award.
“She loves with her whole heart, and it’s kind of irresistible,” he said. “Congratulations on this honor baby, I’m so proud of you.”
