MTV VMAs in pictures: Lady Gaga, Ariana Grande and Sabrina Carpenter triumph as tribute paid to Ozzy Osbourne | Ents & Arts News
Lady Gaga has led the MTV Video Music Awards (VMAs), with four wins including artist of the year. Ariana Grande and Sabrina Carpenter took three awards each.
It was a night dominated by women, with female stars bagging all the awards, with the exception of Bruno Mars for his collaborations with Gaga and Blackpink member Rose.
Mariah Carey collected her first-ever VMA award, swiftly followed by a second when she was awarded the Video Vanguard award.
And tribute was paid to Ozzy Osbourne, who died in July, with Yungblud and Aerosmith’s Steven Tyler and Joe Perry performing Black Sabbath classics, introduced by Jack Osbourne and his four daughters.
