This year’s MTV Music Video Awards has officially come and gone, but that doesn’t mean that it will ever be forgotten. The show was full of fun, sensual, and even futuristic performances all under one roof. With the show held in Newark, New Jersey there was a theme of New Jersey Pride. It’s time to take a look back on some of the greatest moments of this year’s VMAs!

The city of Newark was covered with posters to welcome in the exciting ceremony, and curious watchers looked down at the event from rooftops surrounding the carpet.

Some of the greatest moments of the night were the performances that took place during the show. The show opened up with Taylor Swift giving a fantastic performance of “You need To Calm Down” and “Lover.” Miley Cyrus also took the stage to give a moving performance for “Slide Away” and Lizzo brought the fun with “Truth Hurts and “Good As Hell.” Some of the most talked-about performances of the night were the steamy first television performance given by couple Camilla Cabello and Shawn Mendes for Seneratia, and Normani’s “Motivation” that undeniably stole the show for those impressive moves.
