9 Of The Shadiest Moments From Last Night's MTV VMAs

The shade from last night's VMAs left everyone feeling particularly cool, especially that iconic Fifth Harmony shade.

A show that is usually full of stand out performances was a lacklustre affair with Katy Perry being blamed for her hosting skills.  Fans and critics of the 2017 Video Music Awards dragged the host of the show on Twitter for her poorly timed jokes and out of touch references. The highlight of the night for fans was Pink winning the Vanguard award and performing a medley of her most popular songs.

Speculation mounted this week that Taylor Swift and Katy Perry, who are reportedly feuding, would bury the hatchet and perform together on the VMA stage. Katy was left out in the cold as Swift did not appear at the event. Here are nine of the shadiest moments from last nights show:

Fifth Harmony

The shade was thrown, literally, when a doll symbolising Camila, the fifth member who unexpectedly left Fifth Harmony last year,  was launched from the stage. Gas.

The band continued their subtle shade by answering whether or not they'd give Camila a statuette for their wins:

Katy Perry

Ellen, the queen of hosting, was not buying what Katy was selling.

Ed Sheeran

"New phone, who dis?" - the Brit could not hide his expression.

Cardi B

As Ed Sheeran performed the line "I don't care if you cry" , it did not go down well with Miss Cardi B. Maybe wasn't a fan of that GOT appearance either? We have a feeling we'll  like you Cardi.

Jack Antonoff, the lead singer of The Bleachers

Last night, Antonoff, the singer songwriter whose girlfriend is actress and writer Lena Dunham, won numerous awards for his song writing. All Twitter could talk about though was Antonoff munching on a  banana during Katy Perry's performance. He's also Taylor Swift's best mate.

Woke stans on Twitter

Trust the stans on Twitter to be the truth tellers in a "post-truth" era.

Lorde

Lorde was recovering from the flu and couldn't sing, she obviously wasn't told about flat 7 up. Instead, the singer awkwardly moved and danced on stage to her own song. Props for giving it a go anyway Lorde.

Taylor Swift

All the Swifties in the world could talk about after the VMAs was Taylor Swifts 'Look What You Made Me Do' video debut, particularly the low key shade thrown at Katy Perry. In one scene Swift crashes her golden lamborgini, dressed similarly to Katy Perry with short hair, as she holds a Grammy which KP doesn't own.

Did we miss any other low key shade moments?
