MTV VMAs Complete Winners List: The Weeknd Wins Video Of The Year; Lady Gaga Named Artist Of The Year And Takes Home Inaugural Tricon Award

On Sunday, coveted Moon Person trophies were handed out at the socially distanced and COVID-compliant 2020 MTV Video Music Awards ceremony with The Weeknd winning Video of the year as well as Best R&B. Meanwhile, Lady Gaga — in endless costume and mask changes — tallied the most wins including Artist of the Year and the first-ever Tricon Award.

Airing live on MTV and simulcast on The CW and other ViacomCBS brands, the 37th annual ceremony was hosted by Keke Palmer with performances by Lady Gaga, Ariana Grande, The Weeknd and others. Shot in the various boroughs of New York City, the ceremony was an homage to the city and its resilience.

BTS scored numerous trophies including Best Pop, Best K-pop and Best Group while Megan Thee Stallion won for Best Hip Hop and H.E.R. won Video For Good. Taylor Swift took a Moon Person home for directing her video for her song “The Man” and Miley Cyrus’s “Mother’s Daughter” won for Best Art Direction and Best Editing. And in a category that is suitable for the times, CNCO’s “Unplugged At Home” won for Best Quarantine Performance
