Whatever Drake was feeling for her, Rihanna made it clear to Vanity Fair’s November issue that Brown was her last real, official boyfriend.

Performance No. 2 found her kitted out in a pair of black Alexandre Vauthier trousers, a pink, fur-trimmed bra by Rosamosario and a white T-shirt (or part of one anyway), which multiple reports credit to Adam Selman.

And she quickly racked up the prizes, earning best choreography, best direction, best cinematography, and best editing for “Formation“, which she performed as part of a show-stopping Lemonade medley.

Sia’s Cheap Thrills also missed out in the Song of the Summer category to Fifth Harmony ft. This year it is being awarded to Rihanna, who spilit up her performances throughout the night, singing hits such as “Work” and “We Found Love”.

As for the awards, Beyonce won video of the year for “Formation” and best female video for “Hold Up“. While many praised her for throwing her all into the performance, others blasted her for so clearly lip syncing to the song. Next, she sang her gritty trap hits, “Needed Me”.

With a tongue-in-cheek reference to Lochte’s fabricated story of being robbed at gunpoint during the Rio Olympics, Fallon told the audience that he (as Lochte) had directed all five of the nominees for video of the year. He posted a selfie on Instagram of the two of them, writing, “This is a night for us all to be thankful for what you have done for us!”

“Gone are the days where TV is where you go to”, he said. “Have a attractive night”.

Kanye West used his four minutes on stage at the MTV Video Music Awards to confused the heck out of viewers. He even pointed to former girlfriend Amber Rose, who was in the audience and is also in the video.

Broooooooooo, tonight we are here to have fun, I’m standing in front of my idol Puff Daddy, I’m standing in front of my wife Kim Kardashian West, I’m standing in front of the future, Chance the Rapper, Chainz, Jaden Smith, bro, we are undeniably the influence, the thought leaders. If you think about last week, there was 22 people murdered in Chicago. I know times for me, I sit down and talk to older, like, rich people, you know? A.K.A. Take, tell Taylor this. “And such a talented person and someone that I was like, ‘I can’t believe I’m here talking to this individual, ‘ that she just gave me that feeling like when I was 17-years-old trying to take Nikki Ramos, this girl from Toronto, out on a date and she never wanted to go with me”.

“That’s why I called her”, he said with a laugh, referring to his recent drama with the pop star, who didn’t attend the VMAs and was not nominated.

It appears the two exes still have bad blood between them: In Harris’ acceptance for best male video for “This Is What You Came For“, he noticeably forgot to mention lyric writer Swift.

But perhaps the biggest feat MTV accomplished was making us actually want to watch a music video.
