Ariana Grande, Taylor Swift win big at 2019 VMAs
TAYLOR Swift and Ariana Grande are the big winners of today's MTV Video Music Awards.
The pop princesses ruled the awards ceremony, known for its wild red carpet fashions.
Swift took out the coveted Video of the Year Award while Grande was named Artist of the Year.
Earlier in the ceremony, John Travolta had another 'Adele Dazeem' moment when presenting the biggest award of the MTV VMAs to Taylor Swift.
Travolta provided one of the most memorable moments in award show history when he introduced performer Idina Menzel as 'Adele Dazeem' at the 2014 Oscars.
The veteran actor appeared confused when presenting an award to Taylor Swift at today's MTV VMAs, instead attempting to hand the award to a lookalike drag queen.

The queen, RuPaul's Drag Race alum Jade Jolie, was one of many LGBTQ stars of Swift's You Need To Calm Down video who took to the stage with the star to accept her Video of the Year win.
Jolie smiled and greeted Travolta as he attempted to hand the award to her instead of the real Swift:

Hilariously, Travolta had only seconds earlier referenced his infamous 'Adele Dazeem' gaffe, insisting co-presenter Queen Latifah announce the award winner due to his poor track record.
Amidst her divorce from Aussie actor Liam Hemsworth, Miley Cyrus delivered an emotional performance her new break-up song Slide Away while Shawn Mendes and Camila Cabello steamed up the screen with their duet Senorita, which won Best Collaboration.
