Taylor Swift made history at the 2023 MTV Video Music Awards, winning a record-tying nine Moon Persons. This ties her with Michael Jackson for the most wins in one night and catapults her to the second most wins of any artist in show history, behind Madonna.

Swift's wins included Video of the Year, Song of the Year, Artist of the Year, Best Pop, Best Cinematography, Best Direction, Best Visual Effects, Best Editing, and Best Direction. Her single “Anti-Hero” came out on top in most fields, as it was the video and song she’s focusing on when it comes to major awards.

She took home nine of the 11 trophies that she and her work were nominated for at the 2023 MTV VMAs.

Taylor Swift's nine wins at the 2023 MTV VMAs brought her lifetime total to 23, second only to Beyoncé's 30.
