The video begins with the singer, 27, crawling out of a grave, covered in dirt. It then cuts to a variety of scenes that show her sitting in a bathtub filled with diamonds and dancing with a group of men wearing "I Love T.S." crop tops, possibly a nod to the T-shirt that her ex-boyfriend Tom Hiddleston famously wore at a July 4 party in 2016.

At the end of the video, Swift pokes fun at her previous music videos and headline-making moments, including her feud with Kanye West. "I would like to be excluded from this narrative," she says to a bunch of clones dressed in her most iconic outfits.

Swift dropped "Look What You Made Me Do," the first single from her upcoming sixth album, Reputation, just before midnight on Friday, August 25. During the bridge, she announces, "The old Taylor can't come to the phone right now / Why? Oh, 'cause she's dead!"

"Taylor is overhauling her image," a source exclusively told IPRESSTV ahead of the track's premiere. "She plays around with new sounds each album cycle, but this one in particular stands out."

The lyric video for the upbeat tune amassed a record-breaking 19-plus million views in its first 24 hours on YouTube, marking Swift's biggest debut since 2015's "Bad Blood." When a short preview of the "Look" music video premiered on Good Morning America on Friday, many critics compared it to Beyoncé's "Formation" visual. Director Joseph Kahn responded to the accusations on Twitter, writing, "I've worked with Beyoncé a few times. She's an amazing person. The #LWYMMDvideo is not in her art space. Love and respect to Bey."

Miley Cyrus Uses Twerking Pic To Tease Her Dad Billy Ray Ahead of VMAs 2017 Performance

Miley Cyrus teased her dad, Billy Ray Cyrus, by posting a pic of her memorable twerking performance at the 2013 MTV Video Music Awards, just hours ahead of her appearance at this year’s awards show.

The “Malibu” singer shared a meme on Instagram on Sunday, August 27, that showed her and Robin Thicke with an image of her dad’s face looking unhappy beside them.

“Sorry Dad…. I’ll be good tonight I promise … @vmas,” she captioned the photo.

As fans will remember, Cyrus’ show-stopping performance of Thicke’s “Blurred Lines” and her own hit “We Can’t Stop” featured her twerking, dancing with giant teddy bears, grabbing her crotch, pushing up against Thicke, and repeatedly sticking out her tongue while wearing a nude bikini.

The former Hannah Montana star told Harper’s Bazaar in an interview last month that she has moved on since then.

“It became something that was expected of me,” she said of her wild girl image. “I didn’t want to show up to photo shoots and be the girl who would get my tits out and stick out my tongue. In the beginning, it was kind of like saying, ‘F--k you. Girls should be able to have this freedom or whatever.’ But it got to a point where I did feel sexualized.”

The singer also told Billboard in May that she is “evolving” and has given up marijuana and alcohol.

“I’m not doing drugs, I’m not drinking, I’m completely clean right now!” she said. “That was just something that I wanted to do.”

Cyrus, 24, is set to perform her newest single, “Younger Now,” at the VMAs on Sunday night and teased the performance on Instagram, sharing images with her “squad” of older women.

The 2017 MTV Video Music Awards air on MTV Sunday at 8 p.m. ET.

WATCH Video of Simone Biles Tumbling in Heels at VMAs - Mistakes Bring Out The Best Out All Of Us

The anti-gravitational force that is Simone Biles had an ever-so-brief encounter with human error at the 2016 MTV Video Music Awards.

Biles wore heels, a mistake that we as pedestrians who struggle to balance on the sidewalk, let alone on an elevated balance beam with a width of four inches, have made on one too many occasions; but she was presenting an award to Beyoncé, so the evening called for death traps of the stiletto variety.

A fan caught video of Biles as she slipped down the steps and it was posted on TMZ. She’s fine (duh), but with the blessing of Yoncé, she will persevere and conquer.

Miley Cyrus’ Homeless Date For 2014 VMAs is Auctioning Her Moonman on eBay

Miley Cyrus’ homeless 2014 MTV VMAs date is selling her coveted Video of the Year Award on eBay.

Jesse Helt, who joined the“Wrecking Ball” singer at the 2014 MTV Video Music Awards to raise awareness of youth homelessness, is selling Cyrus’ Moonman trophy for $10,000.

According to TMZ, Helt has been living a good life. The 24-year-old, who recently got a studio apartment in Los Angeles, Calif. and is expecting a baby with his partner, is cashing in the VMA for money to raise the child.

As of Tuesday morning (Aug. 30, 2016), there were no bids yet; however, the “Buy It Now” option is going for $15,000. If he’s lucky, Helt could get quite a lot of money for the engraved trophy. It wouldn’t be the first time an MTV Moonman has been sold. Someone once paid $72,000 for U.S.A. for Africa’s“We Are the World” statuette.

If you’d like to place your own bid (LOL), check out his Ebay listing here.

This is the Real Reason That Made Justin Bieber Skipped the 2016 VMAs

Hahahaha... Justin Bieber instead  got drunk and did karaoke boycotting the 2016 MTV Video Music Awards.

The some of the greatest names in Hollywood were bustling attending the VMAs on Sunday (Aug. 28, 2016), whereas the “Cold Water” singer chose to jump the awards show and spent the night drinking alone at a karaoke bar in Los Angeles.

nice of  him, right? Well considering the fact that he lost in the two categories he was nominated in, we think he did well by staying home away from the 2016 VMAs. Based on report from  the Daily Mail, Justin Bieber was sipping on some Jack Daniels before performing a version of Jerry Lee Lewis’s “Great Balls of Fire.”

“He came in to the bar around 10pm with a security guard who gave him plenty of space and waited by the door,” a source revealed. “Justin knows the owner really well so came in and drank for free, he was knocking back Jack Daniels neat and seemed really relaxed.”

There are also tons of videos of him singing on Instagram.

Why 2016 MTV VMAs Turn Out Was Very Poor?

Though the 2016 MTV Video Music Awards featured aBritney Spears comeback,Drake’s public declaration of love for Rihanna, and a killer 16-minute performance from Beyoncé, the televised ceremony saw terrible ratings regarding viewership.

Once again, the VMAs suffered yet another drop in audience numbers, bringing in only 6.5 million viewers on Sunday night (Aug. 28, 2016). According to The Hollywood Reporter, the VMAs went down by more than 4 million viewers — a 34 percent drop — since 2015’s numbers. (To put things into perspective: More people watched last week’s Season 7 premiere of The Great British Bake Off, which saw 10.4 million viewers, than this year’s VMAs.)

.

The dip in ratings continues the VMAs’ trend of decline in viewership. In 2015, the show only snagged 10.3 million viewers, while 2014 had roughly a crowd of 13.7 million.

The Parents Television Council, an organization that previously complained about Miley Cyrus’raunchy VMAs performance in 2013, even remarked that MTV “definitely seemed to have toned it down” and that “it did seem to be a tamer VMAs” this year.

Though Beyoncé arguably stole the show with a medley of songs from Lemonade, some viewers even found ways to critique the performance. Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giulianiblasted Beyoncé, saying:

I have five uncles who were police officers, two cousins who were, one who died in the line of duty. I ran the largest and best police department in the world, the New York City Police Department, and I saved more black lives than any of those people you saw on stage by reducing crime and particularly homicide by 75 percent…of which, maybe for or five thousand were African-American young people who are alive today because of the policies I put in effect that weren’t in effect for 35 years.

“When when she does stuff like that [her VMAs performance], that message to the next generation is pretty indelible,” he said on Fox & Friends. “It’s a shame.”

2016 MTV Video Music Awards: Britney Spears Appearss Flawless on the White Carpet

Britney Spears arrived on the white carpet at the 2016 MTV Video Music Awards, ahead of what is going to be a life-changing performance, looking like an absolute queen.

Spears hit the white carpet in a black, one-shoulder, cutout midi dress, that showed off her flawless body from every single angle. Spears paired the body hugging gown with single black pumps and her signature “It’s Britney Bitch” tousled waves.

Spears is set to hit the stage tonight (Aug. 28, 2016) to perform her new single “Make Me” with Easy G.

MTV VMAS 2016: Beyonce and Her Princess, Blue Ivy Walk the Red Carpet Together

The queen has arrived! Queen Bey, that is. Beyonce walked the red carpet at the 2016 MTV VMAs, and she did so alongside a very notable date.

The 34-year-old showed up at the awards show with her 4-year-old daughter Blue Ivy in tow, and both ladies looked fierce as they posed for the cameras.

The songstress, who leads the VMAs with a staggering 11 nominations, wore a form-fitting sheer gown complete with a feather boa that rose up to form angelic-like wings.

Blue, meanwhile, looked every bit a princess in a tulle gown and jeweled tiara, showing that royalty truly does run in the family.

It's expected to be a big night for the Lemonade artist. In addition to her boatload of nominations and favored status, she's also rumored to perform alongside 45-year-old husband Jay Z.

It's been a difficult year for the pair, with the rapper's alleged infidelity with Rachel Roy being at the forefront of Beyonce's smash hit visual album. If they do indeed hit the stage together, you can bet it will be the most talked about performance of the show!

Rihanna Braggingly Instagrammed Billboard Drake Set Up to Congratulate Her VMA Video Vanguard Award

Rihanna Braggingly Instagrammed Billboard Drake Set Up to Congratulate Her VMA Video Vanguard Award

Thanks, boo! Rihanna bragged about a billboard rumored beau Drake got to congratulate the Grammy winner on her MTV VMA Video Vanguard Award via Instagram on Friday, August 26.

“When he extra ❤🏆!!!” the 28-year-old “Work” singer captioned an image of the oversized billboard, which reads: “Congratulations to Rihanna from Drake and everyone at OVO.”  

Rihanna and the Canadian rapper, 29, have long been linked, and their onstage flirting during Rihanna’s Anti World Tour this summer have only added fuel to the fire. (The pair have previously collaborated on several other hits, including "Take Care" and "What's My Name?"

At the Manchester stop of her tour, Rihanna brought Drake out to perform their hit single “Work” together from her latest album, Anti, and when they finished, the rapper took the mic to praise his longtime pal.

“The most beautiful, talented woman I’ve ever seen in my life,” he told the crowd, gesturing toward the “This Is What You Came For” singer. “She goes by the name of Rihanna. … I’m getting my heart broken over here.”

Rihanna is set to receive the Michael Jackson Video Vanguard Award at the MTV Video Music Awards on Sunday, August 28, an honor that was previously bestowed upon artists including Kanye West, Justin Timberlake, Madonna and Beyoncé.

She is also up for two other awards at this year’s star-studded show, including Best Female Video and Best Collaboration for her song “Work.” 

Everything We Have About 2016 VMAs: Britney Spears, Nicki Minaj, Ariana Grande & More

Britney Spears is bringing all her Glory to the 2016 MTV VMAs.

The veteran pop star — and apparently that iconic python — will perform at the network’s award show on Sunday, August 28.

Brit Brit made the big announcement with a video starring a doppelganger of her slithering pal from the 2001 VMAs.

“The VMAs don’t just give you a stage, they give you a story,” the 34-year-old says. “Some way of taking a fraction of a second and making it live forever.”

“Before you know it, it’s history. Before you know it, it’s Britney, bitch.”

The mom of two hasn’t appeared at the VMAs since her, um, disappointing“Gimme More” performance in 2007, which was during the low point of Britney’s career.

via GIPHY

But now the sky’s the limit for the “Work B**tch” singer, who will perform new single “Make Me” with rapper G-Eazy at the 2016 VMAs.

While her comeback will definitely be one of the show’s biggest draws, take a look below for the other rumored can’t-miss moments.

Ariana Grande and Nicki Minaj

Get ready to hear the “Dangerous Woman” as “you’ve never heard her before.” Ariana, 23, promised as much in the artsy promo video for her performance of “Side to Side,” where she’ll share the stage with her collaborator Nicki.

Coincidentally, the music video for the track drops the same day as the VMAs.

.

Beyoncé

Queen Bey, 34, slayed the entire world with her visual album Lemonade, so it's no surprise MTV is dying to get her to perform at the VMAs. Twitter is buzzing after a Beyoncé fan account claimed "a rock solid source at MTV... confirm[ed] Beyoncé is attending and performing at the 2016 MTV VMAs!"

We'll believe it — and pass out — when we see it.

Kim Kardashian

No, don’t worry, the “Jam” singer isn’t performing on Sunday. Instead she’s presenting, along with Sean "Diddy" Combs, Alicia Keys, Jaden Smith, and Rita Ora.

Future

The Atlanta rapper, 32, is officially set to perform at the 2016 VMAs, marking his first-ever appearance on the award show's stage.

Future’s collaborator Drake is already nominated for Video of the Year — so fingers crossed we get a surprise appearance from the 6 God himself.

Rihanna

The “Needed Me” singer will take home the Michael Jackson Video Vanguard Award, after collaborator Kanye West won the lifetime achievement award last year.

Let's hope RiRi, who’s just 28, will also announce her bid for political office.

Lady Gaga

It’s rumored Mother Monster will also make her return to the VMAs stage after her last performance in 2013.

Gaga, 30, will open the show with her upcoming song, “Chaos Angel,”IBTimes.com speculates. But, her next single is actually titled “Perfect Illusion.”

Notes from production company 22 Degrees listing the AHS alum as the first performer of the night have reportedly leaked. Gaga hasn’t commented on the gossip.

Nick Jonas

The “Close” hunk might be the most gracious guy in the biz. After revealing he was “disappointed” over being shutout of all 2016 VMA nominations, the 23-year-old will still perform during the telecast!

Get ready to see Nick belt out “Bacon” with Ty Dolla $ign.

Justin Bieber-Selena Gomez conspiracy theories

A photo posted by Selena Gomez Snapchats (@selenasnapchats) on Aug 15, 2016 at 11:55pm PDT

Maybe this is just wishful thinking, but fans are hoping Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez’s Instagram feud is just a pre-VMAs publicity stunt.

It wouldn’t be the first time a social media argument turned into a jaw-dropping reconciliation at the show.

The 2016 MTV VMAs will air live on Sunday, August 28, at 9 p.m. ET on MTV.
