Taylor Swift is the most awarded artist in the history of the MTV Video Music Awards. At the 2024 ceremony, she won seven Moon Person trophies, surpassing Beyoncé to break the record for the most VMAs by an artist, with 30 career wins. In addition, she extended her record for most Video of the Year wins, taking home her fifth prize for "Fortnight," and winning the category for the third year in a row.

MTV has announced that Mariah Carey will receive the Video Vanguard Award at the 2025 Video Music Awards. Unlike many Video Vanguard winners-like Katy Perry, Shakira, Nicki Minaj, Missy Elliott, Jennifer Lopez, P!nk, and Rihanna-Carey has never actually won a VMA, despite numerous nominations. She's nominated this year, too, in the Best R&B category, for " Type Dangerous."

Lady Gaga is the most-nominated artist at the 2025 MTV Video Music Awards with 12 nominations, including categories for Artist of the Year and Best Album for Mayhem.
