The 25 hottest ladies to walk the MTV VMA red carpet, plus the list of winners

The 2014 MTV Video Music Awards are in the books and luckily no one got shot or bitten by a snake. (What’s that? Oh. Never mind.) Anyway, as usual there was a bevy of beautiful babes on hand, but these were the 25 hottest to stroll the red carpet.

But first, the oh-so-more-important part: the winners…

Video of the Year: “Wrecking Ball” – Miley Cyrus
Best Female Video: “Dark Horse” – Katy Perry & Juicy J
Best Male Video: “Sing” – Ed Sheeran
Best Pop Video: “Problem” – Ariana Grande w/Iggy Azalea
Best Lyric Video: “Don’t Stop” – 5 Seconds of Summer
Best Rock Song: “Royals” – Lorde
Best Hip Hop Song: “Hold On, We’re Going Home” – Drake
Artist to Watch: Fifth Harmony
Vanguard Award: Beyonce

(Side note: If Miley won Video of the Year, how did she not win Best Female Video? Just sayin’.)
