The MTV VMAs 2025 was full of fire performances and big wins, from Mariah Carey taking home the Video Vanguard award to KATSEYE bringing “Gnarly” to the pre-show stage, to Alex Warren sharing how he prepared for his number to Tate McRae’s steamy performance, we’re taking you through everything you missed from the night!

LL Cool J: I think there’s so many different fans that are gonna be watching for so many different reasons. I just want all of those fans to get to see their favorites. 

Tetris Kelly: The MTV VMAs just took over New York and from rehearsals to the carpet to Sunday night’s big show, performances and winners, we got all you missed in Billboard All Access.

Doja Cat shook the crowd with new music, as Tate McRae wowed with her usual mesmerizing choreo you. The show’s producer talked about the juggernaut of putting on this show.

Van Toffler: It’s really a crazy week leading up to the VMAs because kind of anything can go wrong from people missing their planes to now getting the COVID, technical problems, and it’s hundreds of people involved, so it gets messy and long and hairy, but it’s mostly fun because anything can happen in a live show.

[In 2013] Miley Cyrus’ big teddy bear couldn’t open up, so she couldn’t come out of the teddy bear. We couldn’t fit Bruno’s whole band on the stage, or get Justin pyro, so anything can happen. The most grueling is pretty much the Vanguard Award, because they are the longest and we use the entirety of the stage.

Tetris Kelly: Mariah Carey received the Vanguard Award and delighted the crowd with nothing but hits. Ariana Grande presented the icon. She also won for her music video, “Type Dangerous.”

Keep watching for more!

Mariah Carey Video Vanguard Award Speech

Mariah Carey‘s latest achievement was far from a fantasy.

After all, the “Obsessed” singer accepted the highest achievement at the 2025 MTV Video Music Awards on Sept. 7: the Michael Jackson Video Vanguard Award.

With over three decades in the music industry, 16 solo studio albums and six Grammy wins, Mariah was honored with the lifetime achievement award by Ariana Grande. With the singer winning her first-ever VMA this year for her track “Type Dangerous,” she had a special message for the award show.

“I just had one question,” Mariah—who earned her first of nine nominations in 1996—began. “What in the Sam Hill were you waiting for?”

It was all in jest, however, with her quickly adding, “I’m kidding. I love you!”

As Mariah accepted the award, she reflected on her attendance at the award show, including her presenting host LL Cool J with his Vanguard Award in 1997 and opening the 1998 ceremony with a “faux standoff” with Whitney Houston.

Mariah Carey Performs Video Vanguard Medley at VMAs

On an evening in which she was honored with the Michael Jackson Video Vanguard Award, Mariah Carey delivered a career-spanning, thoroughly enjoyable medley of hits old and new — and earned a personal tribute from Ariana Grande — at the MTV Video Music Awards, held at the UBS Arena in Elmont, N.Y. on Sunday night (Sept. 7.).

“She’s given us an anthem for every single occasion,” Grande, who tapped Carey for a “Yes, And?” remix last year, told the arena to introduce the Video Vanguard performance. The Wicked superstar added, “As a vocalist, there’s only one queen, and that’s Mariah.” 

With that, Carey started off the medley with her feathery recent single “Sugar Sweet,” joined by a pair of male dancers in a bedroom backdrop, before the beat abruptly cut to Ol’ Dirty Bastard’s boisterous intro to the “Fantasy” remix. The entire medley functioned as a showcase to Carey’s range as a pop superstar, with “Heartbreaker” getting a roller rink routine (and someone playing Bianca, her alter ego from the video), “Obsessed” featuring a masked menace, and “It’s Like That” bringing its finger-snaps into a ballroom, complete with elegant choreography and playful vocals.

Eventually, “We Belong Together” served as a centerpiece of sorts, with Carey backed by a string orchestra and the applause turning raucous as Grande returned to the stage to hand the superstar her award. Carey and Grande blew each other air kisses, and Grande bowed down to her friend before ceding the stage to Carey, who turned to Grande and proclaimed, “I’m so grateful for you and I’m beyond proud of everything you’ve achieved, girl!”

Carey’s acceptance speech was relatively short, but touched upon her history at the VMAs — including a performance alongside the late Whitney Houston, and her own presentation of the Video Vanguard award to the 2025 ceremony host, LL Cool J — as well as her deep appreciation of the music video as a modern art form. “Music evolves, videos evolve — but the fun, that is eternal!” Carey declared before thanking her fans, the Lambily.

Carey also plugged her upcoming album, Here For It All, during the speech; her first studio album in seven years will be released on Sept. 26, and will include “Sugar Sweet” as well as the previously released single “Type Dangerous.”

Young Thug’s leaked jail calls have taken over the internet. Now, folks are dropping questions left and right speculating that his pillow talks may caused him and Mariah The Scientist to split. Some fans think the couple might’ve parted ways after he admitted to cheating in the past during a leaked jail call.

Is Mariah The Scientist Still Young Thug’s Baby?

Young Thug has the internet scratching their heads after he dropped a post on X (formerly Twitter) on Sunday, September 7. The rapper shared, “Chapter ended” with a red heart, and now fans are speculating that he and Mariah The Scientist have gone their separate ways. Thugger’s post hit while his leaked jail calls keep blowing up online. If you’ve been keeping up, Thug has been trending nonstop after fans heard him mentioning Gunna, YSL, Future, Drake, and even GloRIlla in past calls.

In a new leak, he admits to past cheating, sending folks straight to Mariah. In the call, he mentions that he told Mariah a photo a woman posted in his condo was old, but chile it was just days before he was arrested on May 9, 2022. As if that wasn’t enough, another call surfaced with him telling an unknown woman he “loves her” and asking “what age she plans on having kids.” Her response? “When he comes home.” 

Social Media Thinks Thugger’s Leaks Lead To Possible Split With Mariah

Of course, TSR’s comment section was lit up with the Roomies dropping Mariah’s name and asking her to come forward with a confirmation. Peep some of their reactions below.

Instagram user @prettyface.904 wrote, “She must’ve broke up with him.” 

Instagram user @siameanjonea wrote, “At least Mariah didn’t get trapped with a baby sis won in the end 😩👏🏽” 

While Instagram user @andreas_adventuree wrote, “Mariah please confirm so we can all celebrate.” 

Then Instagram user @letorenee wrote, “Don’t get me wrong that girl deserves WAY better than what she’s getting but the way y’all get excited about the destruction of relationships is kinda sad.” 

Another Instagram user @eniiwinner wrote, “So proud of her if she really dumped him. The embarrassment is too much. Girl you’re ENOUGH 😍🙌” 

Instagram user @juicycreoleee wrote, “WE NOT SURPRISED WE TOLD HER TO DODGE THAT BULLET😒” 

While another Instagram user @_liddobribri wrote, “this whole thing sad honestly smh..” 

Instagram user @girlydivascents wrote, “Mariah girl is that fever still blue cause this 🥷🏿 a fire breathing creature for real! 🙄😩” 

Then another Instagram user @hijoshotit wrote, “Mariah bout to become a biologist now.” 

Lastly, Instagram user @ky.chroniclesss wrote, “if i was Mariah i’d be dropping a song wit Gunna TONIGHT 12am SHARP😭” 

Here’s What Mariah Said While Fans Wait For Confirmation

As for where Mariah The Scientist and Young Thug stand? The jury’s still out there. Neither has confirmed anything, but Mariah did drop lyrics from her own song, ‘Rainy Days,’ on her Instagram Story, which appears on her new album, ‘Hearts Sold Separately.’

“I was naive, not ignorant. So much for my innocence now. Love me, leave me, let me down. I put forth an open heart and I’ve been hurt. Looking back in retrospect that ain’t what I deserve. Want it back in blood, and blood I’m going to get. And still I pray for love instead of common sense.”

Prior to Mariah sharing her lyrics on IG, Thugger came through with an apology for his baby. He admitted that she deserves better and is willing to make it work. He also told folks on social media to fall back and leave her out of everything involving him.

“My baby I was wrong and I’m sorry for what I put u through. U deserved better from me. Thank you for everything and I will do anything to make this work. U showed me what love is and I hope I haven’t lost u forever… everybody leave her out of this please she’s an innocent girl and feels bad about all of this. Please give her [peace].”

F**K While Talking w/ GF Mariah the Scientist In Leaked Jail Call: I Would Not Pursue Her’ [SOUND ON]

Another day, another leaked jail call of #YoungThug.

A new audio seemingly of the Atlanta rapper during his time behind bars has hit the internet streets. This time, Young Thug appears to be talking with his girlfriend, Mariah the Scientist, about how unattractive he finds fellow rapper #GloRilla. Making it clear that he would “not pursue” the Memphis artist, Thug calls her “ugly as f***” and questions which celebs have possibly slid in Glo’s DMS.

#KendrickLamar and #LilDurk are two other rappers Thug slammed in previous surfaced calls. While Thug has yet to address the comments about Glo directly, he recently responded to the backlash for other things he said on X:

“Bashing me only goin f**k that rap community up more, I’m the blue to this fake a** game.”

Yikes…Thug clearly had a lot to get off his chest.

Mariah Carey Will Receive Video Vanguard Award at 2025 MTV VMAs

MTV has named Mariah Carey its 2025 Video Vanguard Award recipient. The seven-time MTV Video Music Award nominee will perform a medley of her biggest hits when the show airs live on CBS from UBS Arena in New York on Sept. 7.

The coveted award will be the first VMA the musician has received in her storied career. Carey is nominated this year in the Best R&B Video category for her action flick-themed video for “Type Dangerous.” It’s her first nomination as a lead artist since she was up for Best Female Video for “Touch My Body” in 2008. Other highlight career moments, including “Shake It Off” and “We Belong Together,” earned nods over the years, but the Moonmen never made their way to her.

The honor comes at a prime time for Carey, who will release her 16th studio album Here for It All on Sept. 26. The record marks her first since 2018’s Caution. Though she has largely kept details about the project under wraps, she did share another preview on her latest single “Sugar Sweet” with Shenseea and Kehlani.

For her Video Vanguard Award performance, Carey has quite a few options. She could dominate the performance on her own, with plenty of solo hits to fill the space, but her collaborative well runs deep, too. There’s Busta Rhymes, Boyz II Men, Latto, Miguel, Jadakiss, Snoop Dogg, Jermaine Dupri, and more who could join her for the set.

Earlier this year, Carey similarly received her first-ever BET Award when she was honored with the BET Ultimate Icon Award. “My life and career have been quite the adventure,” Carey said during her speech. “It took me a while, but I realized life is far too short to live for anyone else’s approval.”

Trending Stories

Both awards follow Carey’s second shutout from the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.

Carey follows recent Video Vanguard Award recipients Katy Perry, Shakira, Nicki Minaj, Missy Elliott, Jennifer Lopez, P!nk, and Rihanna.
