Taylor Swift Remembers 9/11 At 2024 MTV VMAs: ‘That’s the Important Thing About Today’

Taylor Swift is taking a moment to reflect. While accepting the award alongside Post Malone for best collaboration for their song “Fortnight” at the MTV Video Music Awards, Taylor paused to remember the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks. “You guys, I wanted to say, waking up this morning in New York on September 11th, I’ve been thinking about what happened 23 years ago. Everyone who lost a loved one, everyone that we lost, and that’s the most important thing about today — and everything that happens tonight falls behind that,” she shared.
