NEW YORK, September 13 ------ Taylor Swift won the biggest award at the MTV Video Music Awards — the trophy for video of the year for “Fortnight,” featuring Post Malone.
In her speech Wednesday night, she talked about her “boyfriend, Travis,” thanking for him for being on set of the music video and cheering her on. Fans rewarded the mention of NFL star Travis Kelce with loud screams. “Everything this man touches turns to happiness and fun and magic,” she said, before shifting gears to the 2024 Presidential election and instructing her fans who are over 18 to register to vote.
Swift did, however, avoid discussing Kamala Harris’ presidential bid on stage. On Tuesday night, Swift endorsed the vice president, moments after Harris’ debate with former president Donald Trump ended. Swift took home seven awards, bringing her to a career total of 30. That means she has tied Beyoncé’s record and both hold the title of most-awarded musician in VMA history. Swift and Malone also took home the first televised award of the VMAs for best collaboration, handed to them by Flavor Flav and Olympian Jordan Chiles.
Swift started that speech by giving remembrance to everyone who lost their lives and loved ones during 9/11, 23 years ago, before discussing Malone. “There is a reason Post Malone is everyone in music’s favorite person to collaborate with,” she shifted her attention to him. “It has taken forever for me to get him to stop calling me ma’am.
