Taylor Swift was wearing a multicolor and glittered suit paired with gold high heels as she introduced the most important award of the night. The hot mom and pregnant to their second child, Kim Kardashian West was also present at the MTV VMA 2015 together with her sister, Kourtney, Kylie and momager, Kris Jenner to support his husband, Kanye West in receiving the most important award of the night. She was stunning in her laced, cleavage-baring, gold dress while West wore a simple sweatshirt and sneakers.  

Back in 2009, Kanye took the microphone from Taylor while she was saying her acceptance speech. He told the country-pop singer that Beyonce should have won the Best Female Video Award for "Single Ladies", rather than her "You Belong With Me" music video. His move gave the audience a negative feedback about his attitude and many Swift fans were upset about what he did. 

According to Vanity Fair, Swift and West have put the past behind them even before the MTV VMA night. The two became friends with the help of Jay-Z. After the MTV Video Music Awards night, West even sent Swift the coolest and prettiest flowers. 

"I feel like I wasn't ready to be friends with him until I felt like he had some sort of respect for me, and he wasn't ready to be friends with me until he had some sort of respect for me - so it was the same issue, and we both reached the same place at the same time," Swift said, adding, "I became friends with Jay Z, and I think it was important, for Jay Z, for Kanye and I to get along ... And then Kanye and I both reached a place where he would say really nice things about my music and what I've accomplished, and I could ask him how his kid's doing."

Kanye West has been awarded 21 Grammy Awards throughout his music career. While Taylor Swift was introducing the winner of the MTV Video Vanguard Award, the rapper was seen joking around, as he was caught on camera pretending to be asleep on his wife's  arm during the speech of the country pop singer. The rapper went up to stage and had given his speech.

"First of all, thank you Taylor for being so gracious and giving me this award this evening, thank you. And I often think back to the first day I met you also. I think about when I'm in the grocery store with my daughter and I have a really great conversation about fresh juice, and at the end they say oh you're not that bad after all," Kanye said at the VMAs.

Swift was seen standing beside Kim Kardashian as they watched the rapper on stage. The two were laughing and a bit shocked when West announced that he might be running for U.S. President in next election.
