  PURPLE SHADE

  via @blairsmani

  The night started with scandal! The world truly does not deserve Lil Nas X. He is mega-talented, charming and hot as hell. He slayed the red carpet. Somehow not everyone agreed?! Red Carpet Reporter Jamila threw shade on his outfit directly to his face! "Look, I'm not going to say I'm hating on the fit," she said, "but let's move on." Some nerve. Lil Nas X handled it like the gentlemen he is and let it roll off his beautiful, bedazzled shoulders.

  You can love or hate the fit but maybe she needed to come wrapped in tin foil because she lit the stage on fire!

  The ladies may have gotten snubbed for the artist of the year category but later on Olivia Rodrigo did win and thanked her fans for allowing her to "write music and make stuff that I love and call it my job." Lil Nas X also won and thanked the gay agenda. We stan both legends.

  Second Red Carpet Scandal

  via @jasoneg33

  According to TMZ, Conor McGregor asked MGK for a picture and was denied. Things escalated from there when the former UFC champion had to be literally held back after throwing his drink. MGK and Megan Fox had to be rushed away by security guards. It was a whole scene. Really McGregor? Keep the fighting off the carpet and in the ring.

  MGK Takes A Hit & A Moon Person

  Another purple-clad man of the night was Machine Gun Kelly. MGK took home a big win despite almost being taken down by Conor McGregor. "Shoutout to the emo kids for bringing it all back!" You are very welcome Sir. I have single-handeldy been trying to bring emo back for years. MGK brought it back in full force. MGK and Blackbear went home with Best Alternative Video of the year for 'My Ex's Best Friend.'

  The scuffle didn't stop MGK from giving a heart wrenching performance. After Megan Fox introduced him as her "future baby daddy" he really did leave his heart on the stage for all of us.

  The real magic moment came at the closing of the show when MGK and Travis Barker performed. MGK was barely breathing in between bars when he said "This song's for my dead father." Everyone's neck hairs were standing up. Chills don't even begin to describe it. Click here to catch their performance of 'Papercuts.'
