Beyoncé Wins MTV VMAs 2016 Video of the Year for 'Formation'
Congratulations to Beyoncé, who snagged the most coveted win at the 2016 MTV Video Music Awards. The pop star took home the Video of the Year Moonman for her "Formation" visual, beating out major contenders Adele, Kanye West, Drake and Justin Bieber.
The singer, whose controversial and political video was shot in New Orleans, dedicated the award to the city. The clip was surprise-released ahead of this year's Super Bowl back in February, and features voices from Fuse star Big Freedia and the late Messy Mya, as well as striking imagery of the southern city, a message to police brutality and a drowning police car.
