Event RECAP: Nicki Minaj, Pharrell & More Perform at The 2015 MTV Music Awards
The 2015 MTV Music Awards were held last night with some of the biggest names in music hitting the stage. Miley Cyrus was the host for the show and as expected stunned the crowd with her array of crazy costumes. The show kicked off with a performance from Nicki Minaj who brought out Taylor Swift, squashing their beef. Macklemore and Ryan Lewis performed their new song ‘Downtown’ featuring rap veterans Melle Mel, Kool Moe Dee, and Grandmaster Caz.
The Weeknd performed his latest hit ‘Can’t Feel My Face’ while Pharrell gave us his rendition of ‘Freedom.’ The night had it’s ups and downs including Nicki Minaj’s classic attack on Miley Cyrus confronting her for her recent comments in an interview.
Kanye West accepted the Video Vanguard award given to him by taylor Swift, ironically. He then gave a 10 minute speech, which we thought was awkwardly outstanding. Take a look at some images and video from the night below.
