The MTV Video Music Awards are notorious for bringing out the most daring fashion and beauty moments. Remember when Doja Cat took a bite of her MAC lipstick on the red carpet, or when Lady Gaga gagged us in a meat dress? Yes, I know I took you back in time with that one.
Tonight, we get to witness another history-making red carpet. With Snoop Dogg hosting, Paris Hilton among the presenters, and a performance from Madonna, it’s guaranteed to be a sartorially fun night.
And we can’t forget to mention the fellas. Never one to shy away from a fashion trend, Gunna will hit the red carpet and stage alongside Shaboozey. Oh yeah, it’s going to be a headline-making night.
Don’t miss out on the festivities. See Refinery29’s favorite looks from the 2026 MTV Video Music Awards here.
