This year the MTV Video Music Awards were all about the women. Rihanna was the lady of honor as she was accepting this year’s Video Vanguard award and graced the stage with not one – not two – not even three – but FOUR performances. Each performance included a medley of her many hit songs and of course, a killer outfit.

Another show stopping display of girl power came when Beyoncé performed a compilation of songs from her award winning visual album Lemonade. The album also earned a total of 8 awards for the night making Beyoncé the proud owner of the most VMA moonmen in history.

Thanks for the “Lemonade,” Beyoncé.

Kanye West used his allotted 4 minutes to premiere his new music video for “Fade” starring one of his label’s signees, Teyana Taylor. The video is seemingly an homage to Flashdance in which Taylor shows off her unbelievably impressive dance skills. Also featured is her husband and NBA star, Iman Shumpert and their infant son, Junie. You can watch the video now on Tidal.

Perhaps the most anticipated part of the evening was Britney Spears‘ comeback performance. The pop legend put on an amazing show performing her new single “Make Me…” alongside rapper, G-Eazy. Towards the end of the performance G-Eazy appeared to attempt a kiss with the icon, which ended in the curve heard-round-the-world.
