MTV Video Music Awards 2024: Taylor Swift makes history as she thanks Travis Kelce - full list of winners

The ‘Cruel Summer’ singer took hold seven of the famous spacemen, bringing her career total to 30. She now matches Beyonce’s record haul, who has won 30 overall as part of Destiny’s Child and in her solo career - however Swift now holds the record for the most solo artist wins.

On the night, which was hosted at the UBS Arena in Long Island, New York, Swift picked up awards for Video Of The Year for Fortnight featuring Post Malone, as well as picking up gongs for Artist Of The Year, Best Collaboration, and Song Of The Summer. In her acceptance speech for Video Of The Year, she took the opportunity to give a shout out to her boyfriend Travis Kelce, who was by her side on set of the Post Malone collaboration.

She said:” When I would finish a take I’d say cut and we’d be done with that take, I would always just hear someone cheering from across the studio where we were shooting it. And that one person was my boyfriend Travis… everything this man touches turns into happiness and fun and magic.”

Other successes on the night came for Sabrina Carpenter, who picked up Song Of The Year for her huge summer hit Espresso, as well as Chappell Roan, who was named Best New Artist.
