In her speech Wednesday night, Swift thanked her ‘boyfriend, Travis’ for being on set of the Fortnight music video and cheering her on.
Fans rewarded the mention of NFL star Travis Kelce with loud screams.
‘Everything this man touches turns to happiness and fun and magic,’ she said, before shifting gears to the 2024 presidential election and instructing her fans who are over 18 to register to vote.
Swift did, however, avoid discussing Vice President Kamala Harris‘ presidential bid on stage. On Tuesday night, Swift endorsed the vice president, moments after Harris’ debate with former President Donald Trump ended.
Swift’s awards haul brings her to a career total of 30, tying her and Beyoncé for the title of most-awarded musician in VMA history. Eminem is now the male artist with the most VMAs, at 14.

The night was stacked with celebrities and featured plenty of Swift, who arrived at the award show wearing a green tartan corset with a matching train and long black leather gloves.
Throughout the night, MTV flashed back to history-making across the VMAs’ 40-year-run, including Britney Spears’ albino python and Madonna’s performance of Like A Virgin.
This year’s VMA festivities were hosted by rapper Megan Thee Stallion and held at the UBS Arena in Long Island.
It featured performances by Katy Perry, Sabrina Carpenter, Camila Cabello, GloRilla, Rauw Alejandro, Benson Boone, Halsey, LISA, Lenny Kravitz, Anitta, Karol G, LL Cool J, and Shawn Mendes.
While Swift became the most decorated artist at the VMAs ever, Sabrina Carpenter had the biggest upset of the night as she defeated her mentor Swift.
The 25-year-old hitmaker earned the coveted Song Of The Year Moon Person over the pop megastar for her smash hit Espresso.
