Full List Of VMA 2012 Winners and Red Carpet

Huh? Illuminati?
The 2012 MTV Video Music Awards came and went faster than one of Tom Cruise's reject girlfriends. It was bumped up an hour so it wouldn't coincide with President Obama's speech at the DNC, but whether it was only two hours long or four, it still sucked. This was probably the most tame red carpet, but everyone mostly looked good. Mostly.

Taylor Swift showed up Kennedy-less, but looking like a 37-year old divorcee in this white pantsuit

Amber Rose confirmed her pregnancy a` la Beyonce in this lacy dress. Fiance Wiz Khalifa looks so proud. Congrats guys!

Team USA's "Fierce Five" made their VMA red carpet debut. They all looked pretty fierce, don't you agree?

Rita Ora wore this sparkly jumpsuit

Not to be outdone, Nicki Minaj wore this Tron-esque catsuit. She also sported a MTN DEW colored wig.

One of the few performers of the night, Pink worked a high slit.

Alicia Keys went for gold with this grecian gown.

I really liked Kat Graham's wine colored suit and the matching lip color.

Ke$ha cleaned up, but still somehow looked like she just rolled out of bed.

Rihanna has rocked many hairstyles over the past year but I think this is her best. Very Halle Berry.

Her friend Katy Perry went a bit more natural with her look, foregoing the colorful wigs and dye. Her dress was pretty nice too.

RuPaul, being his fabulous self.

Tyga showed up looking like a skinny Kool-Aid Man

I'm still not sold on Miley Cyrus's new hair, but this dress looks gorgeous on her, right?
