Due to the current state of the world, this year’s VMAs will look different from all its predecessors. This year’s awards show will incorporate new coronavirus-inspired categories, including “Best Music Video From Home” and “Best Quarantine Performance.” We eagerly await this year’s event and cannot wait to see who snatches up all of the awards this year.

I am a plucky Sophomore at Wesleyan University with a passion for writing, fashion, running, and extremely strong coffee—so strong that it would make a 6’5’’ WWE wrestler weep. I am a small person with a big personality, only intensified by the coffee, that seeps into both my bold street and writing style. I am currently based in the Washington, D.C. Metropolitan area and am excited to work for such an empowering, female-focused publication. During this trying time in history it is more important than ever for women to continue lifting each other up and spreading positive energy!
