The MTV Video Music Award (commonly abbreviated as a VMA) is an award presented by the cable channel MTV to honor the best in the music video medium. Originally conceived as an alternative to the Grammy Awards (in the video category)
By 2001, the VMA had become a coveted award. The statue given to winners is an astronaut on the moon, one of the earliest representations of MTV, and colloquially called a “moonman”. The statue was conceived by Manhattan Design — also designers of the original MTV logo.
The statue is now made by New York firm, Society Awards. Since the 2006 ceremony, viewers have been able to vote for their favorite videos in all general categories by visiting MTV’s website.
The first VMA ceremony was held in 1984 at New York City’s Radio City Music Hall. The ceremonies are normally held in either New York City or Los Angeles. However, the ceremonies have also been hosted in Miami and Las Vegas.
