The winners have been crowned at the 2020 MTV Video Music Awards!
Some major names led the nominations at Sunday's show, with Lady Gaga and Ariana Grande earning the most, at nine nods apiece.
Machine Gun Kelly took home the first award of the night, winning Best Alternative for "Bloody Valentine" during the VMA pre-show. K-pop superstars BTS swept their four nominations, winning Best K-pop, Best Group, Best Choreography and Best Pop.
And Gaga capped off Chromatica's major year, winning Best Collab, Song of the Year, and Artist of the Year, in addition to the inaugural TRICON Award -- though The Weeknd took home the night's biggest award, winning Video of the Year for "Blinding Lights."
Hosted by Keke Palmer, this year's ceremony, which was originally slated to be held at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, was instead put on at various outdoor locations around New York, due to the coronavirus pandemic.
