MTV’s VMAs returned for its 38th annual show, live this year, at Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York, hosted by Doja Cat with performances from Lil Nas X, Normani, Chlöe, Billie Eilish, Justin Bieber, Olivia Rodrigo, and many others.
After last year’s broadcast with no in-person ceremony, the VMAs red carpet was back in full swing, and seemingly better than ever. Lil Nas X turned heads in a glamorous, purple Versace pantsuit with a flowy side train that was reminiscent of an elegant prom dress. Saweetie looked like a million bucks in a metallic silver dress with matching stilettos. Megan Fox stunned in a sheer dress embellished with accents, with MGK in a bold red suit by her side.
