“As we know, there’s so much going on in the world,” Bieber said during his acceptance speech after winning artist of the year. “We are in unprecedented times with COVID. Music is an amazing outlet to reach people together. We’re all here together.”

Lil Nas X won video of the year at MTV VMAs. “I do not take this for granted,” Lil Nas X said while accepting the night’s final award for the video for his song, Montero (Call Me By Your Name).
