The VMAs paid tribute to Ozzy Osbourne with an emotional performance by Aerosmith and Yungblud, the latter wearing a cross gifted by Osbourne. Sabrina Carpenter's performance subtly advocated for trans rights. Ricky Martin received the first-ever Latin Icon Award, praised by presenter Jessica Simpson. Lady Gaga, named Artist of the Year, made a brief appearance before rushing to her concert. Doja Cat made a quirky red-carpet appearance, biting into a lipstick tube.
