2024 MTV VMAs: Taylor Swift Living Her Best Life in Audience Prove She's the Ultimate Cheer Captain

'Tis the damn season for Taylor Swift to have a blast at award shows. 

First up: The "Fortnight" singer made the whole place shimmer while watching the 2024 MTV Video Music Awards from the audience at New York's UBS Arena on Sept. 11. (Check out all the celebs who stepped out for the 2024 VMAs here.)

During the music event, Taylor—who led the night in nominations with a whopping 12 nods—was spotted in MTV's live behind-the-scenes audience footage cheering on host Megan Thee Stallion, dancing along to Eminem rapping a medley of his hits, proving she has no blood with Katy Perry by singing along to her epic performance, enjoying an iced-cold mixed drink and chatting up Post Malone. 

At one point, the Grammy winner even joined Karol G during her performance, dancing along with the Latin singer when she stepped out into the audience during her rendition of "Si Antes Te Hubiera Conocido." And once the song was over, Karol and Taylor shared a sweet off-camera hug.

Of course, Taylor—who stunned in a Dior bondage-inspired look that was giving serious reputation vibes on the VMAs red carpet—had plenty to celebrate. After all, she came out a winner on the big night, taking home trophies in categories including Best Collaboration and Song of the Summer.   

The only thing missing from her evening of fun? Boyfriend Travis Kelce, who was at practice with his Kansas City Chiefs teammates ahead of this weekend's NFL game against the Cincinnati Bengals. 

But the football player made sure to send her some good luck for the awards ceremony, telling his brother Jason Kelce during an Sept. 11 episode of their New Heights podcast, "Hopefully, she can walk away with some Moonmen!"  

Travis added, "Wishing everybody the best, though." 

And Jason had some encouraging words for his sibling's girlfriend as well, saying, "Let's go, Tay! Come on, Tay!"
