Taylor Swift has received the nomination for the Artist of the Year award at the 2025 MTV VMAs. The 35-year-old singer’s fellow nominees in the category are Bad Bunny, Beyonce, Kendrick Lamar, Lady Gaga, Morgan Wallen, and The Weeknd. Last year, Swift bagged seven awards. This included the major artist and video of the year categories.
Swift’s huge 2024 wins brought her MTV Moonman trophies to 30. During her acceptance, the singer-songwriter also famously gave a sweet shoutout to her NFL star boyfriend, Travis Kelce. Now, Swift has received a nomination for this year’s edition. Although the singer-songwriter has not released fresh music in the past year, 2025 has been a monumental one for her.
Earlier this year, Swift bought back the master recordings of her catalog, regaining ownership of all her work. This included the original Big Machine studio albums. Swift celebrated the massive milestone with a heartfelt letter. The “Love Story” hitmaker got emotional and shared that she had been “bursting into tears of joy at random intervals.”
Swift also wrote, “To say this is my greatest dream come true is actually being pretty reserved about it.” The “Daylight” singer continued to recall some of her albums’ re-recordings, which she released as “Taylor’s Version.” Swift expressed her gratitude to fans for their continuous love and support. She also thanked Swifted for turning her “The Eras Tour” into a “success story.”
Therefore, despite not releasing new music, the year has undoubtedly been meaningful for Swift. In fact, the masters buyback led to a huge sales and streaming boost for her catalog. Meanwhile, following the 2025 MTV VMAs nod, fans are already looking forward to Swift’s attendance at the awards ceremony.
The anticipation is particularly high as the “Cruel Summer” singer has been away from the spotlight since her last major appearance at the 2025 Super Bowl. Therefore, fans will be awaiting Swift’s presence at the 2025 VMAs, which will take place on September 7.
