MTV VMAs 2023 celebrates the most loved music videos and artists that have come out this year by fans worldwide. Thus, we have shared the winners’ full list in our article here.
Moreover, this list of winners is based on the votes of the users of the MTV website. For each category, the voting users were given the choice to pick their winners, and the one with the highest votes won. However, in the professional categories, the winners were picked by the professional and not by the popular votes. Taylor Swift and her Anti-Hero song emerged as the big winner in the MTV VMAs 2023.
