MTV VMA 2022: Gewinner:innen, Live-Auftritte, Reaktionen

Gestern Nach ab 2 Uhr unserer Zeit wurden die MTV Video Music Awards (VMA) in den USA verliehen. Moderiert wurde die Veranstaltung im Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey von Nicky Minaj, LL Cool J und Jack Harlow. Er war es auch, der die glamouröse Show standesgemäß einläutete, mit einer Live-Perfomance seines #1-Hits "First Class", stilecht in einem Flugzeug-Set. Dabei leistete ihm Fergie Gesellschaft, deren 2006er-Song "Glamorous" der Track sampelt. Jack Harlow gehörte mit vier VMAs am Ende auch zu den großen Gewinner:innen des Abends, darunter ein Preis für "First Class ("Song Of The Summer") – siehe komplette Liste unten.

Über weitere Awards konnten sich die Warner-Artists Red Hot Chili Peppers (Auszeichnung als "Global Icon" und in der Kategorie "Best Rock" für "Black Summer"), Lizzo ("About Damn Time" in der Kategorie "Video for Good") sowie Anitta freuen, die als erste Brasilianerin in der Geschichte des Preises für ein Soloprojekt nominiert wurde und mit "Envolver" in der Kategorie "Best Latin" ausgezeichnet wurde. Sämtliche ausgezeichneten Tracks gab es im Verlauf der Show live zu erleben – siehe unten. Absolut sehenswert war auch der filmreif inszenierte Auftritt von Panic! At The Disco mit ihrem Song "Don't Let the Light Go Out" vom neuen Album "Viva Las Vengeance".
