Taylor Swift is the only solo performer to win the MTV VMA for Video of the Year in consecutive years. She won for 'All Too Well: The Short Film' in 2022, 'Anti-Hero' in 2023, and 'Fortnight' in 2024.
The achievement formed part of a remarkable late-career run at the VMAs. 'All Too Well: The Short Film' was a self-directed, cinematic project based on Swift's re-recorded song, while 'Anti-Hero' came from her album Midnights and turned several of her personal anxieties into surreal visual scenes. 'Fortnight,' featuring Post Malone, extended the streak to three straight ceremonies.
Swift's earlier Video of the Year wins were separated by gaps: 'Bad Blood' won in 2015 and 'You Need to Calm Down' won in 2019. That timing matters because artists such as Eminem, Beyoncé, and Madonna have won the award more than once, but none matched Swift's consecutive-year sequence. The 2024 victory also gave Swift a record five wins in the category.
