So there were AWARDS at the VMAs

vma

So in between the performances, and the other onstage brouhaha MTV gave away some awards last night (September 13) at the Video Music Awards.

What was your favorite part of the show? Lady Gaga‘s many costume changes? Beyonce’s Single Ladies? Jay-Z?? Or Pink’s acrobatics while singing?

I really hope with the success of this year’s show, MTV will start showing videos again, so I don’t have to search for them online.  :-)

You can see the ENTIRE LIST OF WINNERS after the Jump!
