Lady Gaga leads the MTV VMAs 2025 with 12 nominations, beating Taylor Swift. Beyoncé, Bruno Mars, and ROSÉ follow close. Check full list and voting details.

K-pop star ROSÉ and pop sensation Sabrina Carpenter have received eight nods each, while Ariana Grande and The Weeknd secured seven nominations each. The nominations list also includes Billie Eilish (6), Charli XCX (5), and a slew of artists with four nods including Bad Bunny, Doechii, Ed Sheeran, Jelly Roll, Miley Cyrus, and Tate McRae.
