Taylor Swift Shines at 2024 VMAs: 7 Wins"
Swift Wins Big with 'Fortnight,' Thanks Kelce, and Calls for Voter Engagement
At the 2024 MTV Video Music Awards, pop superstar Taylor Swift conquered the night with the biggest award of the evening: Video of the Year for her collaborative hit “Fortnight” with Post Malone. Beyond the award itself, two reasons made Swift’s acceptance speech the headlines.
Swift won an astonishing seven awards, making her the undisputed queen of the night. This included the high stake of Video of the Year with the unstoppable hit “Fortnight” featuring Post Malone. To seal it off, Taylor is really one of the big beasts in the music industry and very talented as a storyteller through her music videos.
Thanking Her “Lucky Charm”
Swift was up to thank her boyfriend, NFL’s Travis Kelce. She didn’t really confirm the status of their relationship, but referred to him as “boyfriend, Travis“. She teased that he was “a ball of optimistic energy“. “Everything this man touches turns to happiness and fun and magic,” she raved. The sweet shoutout sent fans into overdrive since this is one of the first public acknowledgments of their rumored romance.
A Call to Action
With the remainder of her time, Swift turned to more serious issues, such as the upcoming Presidential Election in the United States. She substantially took the time to remind her audience, those above the age of 18 years, of the importance of registering to vote. Although Swift herself did not endorse any candidate, as she has in support of Kamala Harris in 2020, the artist brought forth a salient reminder of how grave it is to engage in one’s civic duties.
A Powerful Platform
Swift’s VMA win cements her as a force to be reckoned with in the industry. But it is in her commitment to using that platform for not only personal joy but also civic duty that really separates her from the rest of the pack. Acknowledging her relationship and calling for voter registration, Swift took the opportunity to urge fans toward embracing the intricacies of life and an active role in shaping its future course.

Newcomer Chappell Roan stole the spotlight by receiving Best New Artist. One of the most stirring moments in acceptance speeches was her dedicating this award to the LGBTQ+ community that inspires her artistry. Roan’s win means a new, different voice will be one to set the future of pop music.
