Taylor Swift has so much going on at the moment with The Life of a Showgirl, a memorable MTV VMAs red carpet look just had to wait.
The 2025 MTV VMAs had seemed like the perfect place for Taylor Swift to kick off her upcoming album's promotion cycle. She's attended the annual awards show a grand total of ten times, and is tied with Beyoncé for the most Moon Person trophies won by any artist. This year, she's also nominated for Artist of the Year, and her close friends Sabrina Carpenter and Ice Spice were set to attend. All signs pointed to a glamorous VMAs red carpet collaboration with her longtime stylist, Joseph Cassell Falconer, on September 7.
