Winners Of The MTV VMAs

  
Last July, the 2015 MTV Video Music Awards nominees were announced on Apple Music’s Beats 1 radio. Although it sparked a rift between Taylor Swift and Nicki Minaj following the VMA nominations, things have cooled down and people are excited to see who will take home Moonmen after a month-long wait. Swift is up for nine nominations and her close friend Ed Sheeran trails behind her with six nominations. Both are contenders for Video of the Year alongside Mark Ronson, Kendrick Lamar and Beyoncé.
