And everything that happens tonight falls behind that.”“She’s so respectful for this i love her,” one viewer wrote on X (formerly Twitter). “Beautifully said,” commented another.After taking a moment to remember the tragedy, Swift went on to thank the people who worked with her on “Fortnight.”“There is a very clear reason why Post Malone is everyone in music’s favorite person to collaborate with,” Swift said. “And it is because you are so ridiculously talented, you are so versatile, and you’re the most down-to-earth person. Honestly, so unfailingly polite — it has taken me forever to get him to stop calling me ma’am.” — Mike Coppola/Getty Images Entertainment/Getty ImagesMalone returned the love and praised Swift’s work behind the camera, saying it was “pretty bad*ss” to direct the “Fortnight” music video while also starring in it.Megan Thee Stallion’s Iconic Outfit ChangesFans were also quick to praise host Megan Thee Stallion’s sartorial nods to her fellow musicians — from a look reminiscent of Beyoncé’s Olympics leotard to a spot-on homage to Britney Spears’ “I’m a Slave 4 U” performance at the 2001 VMAs.One user laughed at Megan’s very brave attempt to hold a live snake for the bit. “She was so real for this,” they wrote. — @giselleb1234/XSabrina Carpenter Smooched Someone NewWhile performing a medley of her viral singles, Sabrina Carpenter shared a steamy kiss with a blue alien — as you do!One fan declared it an instant classic. “Sabrina just gave a VMAs performance that is going to be remembered for decades SHE KISSED AN ALIEN HELLO?!?!!!” — TIMOTHY A.
