MTV VMAs: Taylor Swift matches Beyonce as most-awarded artist while Katy Perry shocks on stage


Both Taylor Swift and Katy Perry pay tribute to their boyfriends - Travis Kelce and Orlando Bloom - while accepting their awards, with Swift praising her NFL beau for being full of "happiness and fun and magic".

While Swift overtook Beyonce as the most decorated solo artist in VMA history, the Single Ladies singer has previously picked up gongs for being in girl group Destiny's Child, and her collaborations with husband Jay-Z as The Carters. Elsewhere, Sabrina Carpenter picked up song of the year for Espresso, while Good Luck, Babe singer Chappell Roan was named best new artist and Blackpink's LISA won the best K-pop award. Roan - who last month sparked a conversation about boundaries after posting videos online urging fans to stop "harassing her" - had recently faced push-back after cancelling two European shows to play the VMAs.
