Taylor Swift has the chance to add a whole lot more Moonmen to her collection after picking up the most nominations for the 2024 MTV Video Music Awards . Swift led the pack with 10 nods, almost all of which were for the visual for her Tortured Poets Department single with Post Malone , “Fortnight.” The clip is up for the night’s big prize, Video of the Year, offering Swift the chance to notch a record-extending fifth victory in that category.
She’s also up for Artist of the Year, while the “Fortnight” visual picked up additional nods for Song of the Year, Best Collaboration, and a slew of technical categories. Thanks to the dominance of “Fortnight,” Post Malone picked up nine nominations, though he also scored an additional one in Best Collaboration for his smash with Morgan Wallen, “I Had Some Help.” Ariana Grande picked up six noms, as did Eminem and first-time VMA nominee Sabrina Carpenter .
In the stacked Video of the Year category, Swift’s “Fortnight” will go up against Eminem’s “Houdini,” Grande’s “We Can’t Be Friends (Wait for Your Love),” Billie Eilish’s “Lunch,” Doja Cat’s “Paint the Town Red,” and SZA’s “Snooze.” Meanwhile, the Song of the Year category features “Fortnight,” Carpenter’s “Espresso,” Beyoncé’s “Texas Hold ‘Em,” Jack Harlow’s “Lovin on Me,” Kendrick Lamar’s “Not Like Us,” and Teddy Swims’ “Lose Control.” The Artist of the Year category boasts Swift, Grande, Eminem, Carpenter, Bad Bunny, and SZA.
And Best New Artist features Benson Boone, Chapell Roan, Gracie Abrams, Shaboozey, Teddy Swims, and Tyla.
