All The Winners, Beyonce & More

It’s the biggest night of the year for music and all the hottest stars came out and looked ravishing. However, when they weren’t hitting the stage, they were bringing home the huge awards — here’s the full list of winners!

THE 2014 MTV Video Music Awards opened with Ariana Grande emerging from a pyramid spaceship and ended with Beyonce putting paid to rumours of a split between she and hubby Jay Z.

Along the way there were butts (Nicki Minaj), bad dancing (Taylor Swift) and unexpected displays of sincere charity (Miley Cyrus, who didn't set foot on the VMAs stage this year — even when she won an award).

While Beyonce was awarded with the Michael Jackson Video Vanguard Award and landed eight other nominations, many other huge stars were up for awards. Newcomer Iggy Azalea and rapper Eminem were both up for eight awards at the 31st annual MTV Video Music Awards.

The VMAs kicked off with Beyonce leading the night with eight nominations, including nods for Video of the Year for "Drunk in Love" with her husband Jay Z, Best Female Video for "Partition," and Best Video With a Social Message for "Pretty Hurts." She was also one of the top-billed performers.
