About last night…

Award shows are traditionally hit-or-miss affairs and the MTV VMAs have offered plenty of both over the years. When it came to this year’s VMAs the “hit” was so enormous that it’ll eclipse the rest of the night for years to come. Beyoncé stole the entire show with a sprawling medley of Lemonade highlights that constantly topped itself.

For those watching live, it seemed as if every segment was intended to be a grand finale and each time, the pop star effortlessly flipped into a stunning new set piece. This happened again and again for over 15 minutes, an unprecedented amount of time for any award ceremony, but then again Lemonade is an unprecedented achievement. Even before she went on to sweep the award categories it was clear: this was her night.

Watch the full performance below and read our review of Lemonade.
