Moments after Olivia Rodrigo performed her hit “good 4 u,” she collected the night's first award for her massive hit song “Drivers License.” She later won best new artist. Opening the show, Madonna told the screaming crowd: “They said we wouldn’t last. Music is such an amazing outlet to be able to reach people and bring us all together. We are in unprecedented times with this COVID thing that's happening right now. “I know you guys have probably heard it a lot. “As we know, there’s so much going on in the world as we speak,” Bieber said during his acceptance speech after winning artist of the year.

He took home the best pop honor for “Peaches,” a song that featured Daniel Caesar and Giveon - who accompanied him onstage. The VMAs celebrated MTV's 40th anniversary, mixing moments between early network stars like Cyndi Lauper and show opener Madonna with high-octane performances by newer stars like Olivia Rodrigo, Lil Nas X, Camila Cabello and Chloe.īieber was the leading nominee going into the ceremony.
