The stars were shining bright at the 2018 MTV Video Music Awards at Radio City Music Hall in New York City on Monday (Aug. 20).

Cardi B made her first public appearance since giving birth to daughter Kulture Kiari Cephus last month. The new mom, who leads the nominations with 10, came through drippin’ in a black pixie haircut, magenta-colored velvet dress with plunging neckline, and over $4 million worth of Lorraine Schwartz jewelry.

Ariana Grande and fiancé Pete Davidson made their red carpet debut, showing plenty of PDA for the cameras. A gangster and his bride, Gucci Mane and Keyshia K’aoir, walked in looking stylish. Victor Cruz and Karrueche were boo’d up, and Lil Xan and Noah Cyrus also put their love on top.

SZA was a goddess in a fringe dress by Rodarte and Giuseppe Zanotti heels, Amber Rose was a devilish dominatrix in red, and Teyana Taylor showed off her six-pack abs. The fellas also showed out including Quavo, Offset, G-Eazy, Tyga, and 21 Savage.
