MTV VMAs 2018: From Ariana Grande to Childish Gambino and Camila Cabello, the complete winners list

The who's who of Hollywood and the music industry gathered at New York City's Radio City Music Hall for the 2018 MTV Video Music Awards, which was underway on Monday, August 20. Considered as a rather relaxed and fun event of the awards season, this year's gala saw one of the most memorable performances - Jennifer Lopez took to the stage for the first time since 2001 - and the usual brigade of red carpet icons.

Unlike other popular award ceremonies, MTV might have tweaked the format a bit, moving forth minus a host for the VMAs, but the host of A-listers and star-studded presenters was just enough to ensure that the show didn't lack on star power.  From Stranger Things’ actress Millie Bobby Brown to (our latest obsession) Tiffany Haddish, the fan-favorites were in plenty, adding glitz and glamor to the event that honors some of the best musical talents.     

What makes it even better? The pop stars, singers, and the army of artists who made it big at the Video Music Awards this time around. While Havana hitmaker Camila Cabello picked up two trophies, Childish Gambino took home awards for Best Direction and Best Choreography. Here's a look at the complete list of the winners from the night:
