Madonna to open the show with Snoop Dogg to host awards show from Peacock Theatre

Pinned post from yesterday 12.44pm Go to latest That’s a wrap on the 2026 VMAs! By Nell Geraets So, the 2026 VMAs have officially wrapped. Shaboozey set the stage on fire (literally), Kacey Musgraves paid a beautiful tribute to the one-of-a-kind Dolly Parton, and Madonna stole the whole damn show – winning several awards, making dad jokes about counting, and pulling prop lasers from her ass. This would only happen at the VMAs …

But uh, what about the rest of the awards?

Many Moon Person trophies weren’t actually handed out during the ceremony proper, including best Latin, best K-pop, best hip hop and so on. The one category in which an Aussie was nominated for – Tame Impala in best alternative for his track Dracula – didn’t even make the cut. That one stings a little extra.
