2018 MTV VMAs – Hits, Misses, and So Much More

A Recap of the Big Night – The Big Winners, Fun (and fails) with Fashion, and Memorable Musical Moments

Last night, the stars came out to sing, schmooze, and see and be seen.

The VMAs are always entertaining, from the outfits to the on-stage performances. With J.

With presenters including The Backstreet Boys, Kevin Hart, Millie Bobby Brown, and Tiffany Haddish, performances by Nicki Minaj, Shawn Mendez, a well-deserved lengthy one by Jennifer Lopez, and others, and lots of fun and flair throughout the night, the show went along smoothly, yet not spectacularly, as some reviews have mused.
