Annually, the VMAs act as a wild roller-coaster of shock and glee in the world of musical entertainment. The 2018 VMAs, this year going host-less, was no exception to this rule.

With appearances from Aerosmith, the Backstreet Boys, Ariana Grande, Nicki Minaj, Hayley Kiyoko, Jennifer Lopez, Cardi B, Shawn Mendes, Travis Scott, Logic and Ryan Tedder, Post Malone and Madonna with an inspirational tribute to Aretha Franklin, the event was no shortcoming.

This year was a huge step for the Latin music world at the VMAs awarding Jennifer Lopez with Video Vanguard and the very first Latin performance at the show with Maluma performing Felices los 4.
