I love awards shows - film, tv, music, doesn’t matter and the nominations/voting for this year’s VMAs, hosted on MTV, are now open
I thought it would be fun to have a thread to discuss the nominations and then later the winners when the awards presentation airs on September 7th
If you’d like to vote for your favourite artist, here is the voting link: Video of the Year - Vote Now – Nominees for 2025 VMAs
You get 10 votes a day per category
Some of the categories seem like it’ll be really tight this year - there are a lot of really good songs/videos nominated
Such a struggle voting
I wanna vote for them all
@Music has anyone else been watching the show??
What are your thoughts on the winners so far?
