Hosted By Nicki Minaj, Taylor Swift Wins Big At MTV VMAs 2022 (Full List Of Winners)

Taylor Swift danced home with the night’s biggest award at the 2022 MTV Video Music Awards, where she also announced the coming of her new album titled ‘Midnights’ during her acceptance speech.

Taylor Swift emerges as the only artist to win a third video of the year trophy and the first to win for a video she directed herself. In 2015, she won the plaque for ‘Bad Blood’ and 2019 for ‘You Need to Calm Down.’

While accepting the award for ‘Video of the year’ for her song,’ All Too Well (10-minute version),’ the 32-year-old disclosed her 10th studio album would be released on October 21, 2022.

“You guys, I’m just so proud of what we made, and I know that every second of this moment that we wouldn’t have been able to make this short film if it weren’t for you, the fans.”

“Because I wouldn’t be able to re-record my album [Red (Taylor’s Version)] if it weren’t for you. You emboldened me to do that. And I had sort of made up my mind that if you were going to be this generous and give us this, I thought it might be a fun moment to tell you that my brand new album comes out October 21st. And I will tell you more at midnight.”

On social media, she shared the title and cover of the 13-track album, describing it as “the stories of 13 sleepless nights scattered throughout my life”.

Midnights, the stories of 13 sleepless nights scattered throughout my life, will be out October 21. Meet me at midnight.

“This is a collection of music written in the middle of the night, a journey through terrors and sweet dreams,” she wrote. “The floors we pace and the demons we face. For all of us who have tossed and turned and decided to keep the lanterns lit and go searching – hoping that just maybe, when the clock strikes 12 … we’ll meet ourselves.”

The 2022 MTV Video Music Awards took place on Sunday, August 28 at New Jersey’s Prudential Center. Nicki Minaj, Jack Harlow and LL Cool J hosted the show, while Johnny Depp made a virtual appearance as a moon man that pleased the crowd.
