Beyonce bags 8 statuettes, Rihanna gets lifetime award

Drake and Rihanna were spotted getting cosy at a VMAs after party while dancing the night away according to several reports.

If the VMAs taught us anything, it’s that Drake is not afraid to declare his love for Rihanna to the world.

He said that she was someone he had been in love with since he was 22 years old.

Drake won the first award of the night for best hip-hop video for “Hotline Bling”, but the rapper was unable to collect his Moon Man because, as Puff Daddy told the crowd, he was “stuck in traffic”.

All hail the queen of chartreuse. Rihanna thanked her family, friends and hometown of Saint Michael in Barbados for helping her succeed throughout her 11-year-career.

Though Rihannah is sometimes been accused of seeming more like a vessel for producers than anything else, a unified and singular vision at work, a vision that the VMAs then connected with her hugely fun back catalogue. I know times for me, I sit down and talk to older, like, rich people, you know? A.K.A.

Ladies and gentleman, the recipient of the Michael Jackson Vanguard Award for 2016, Rihanna.

Meanwhile, Rihanna had performed four times to mark her lifetime achievement award.

Rapper Drake narrowly avoided embarrassment backstage at the MTV Video Music Awards after tripping over Rihanna’s ball gown.

“If y’all came to slay, sing along with me”, she said.

Mary J. Blige and Tracee Ellis Ross were some of the stars who paid homage to the talented musician, while Drake presented Rihanna with the award at the end of the night, and sealed it with not one, but two kisses. Maybe she didn’t feel comfortable kissing him in front of millions of MTV viewers. The cameos probably delighted those who knew these people, but for the most part, the whole thing looked like the celebrity equivalent of the kids’ table while the grown-ups partied at the bar in the garden.

They both looked happy and beaming as they headed down the Up&Down club where Hailey Baldwin, Taylor Hill, Jaden Smith, Jasmine Tookes and more were already partying. “Tonight we celebrate you!”
