After Winning Hearts at Met Gala, Jenna Ortega Continues Her Golden ‘Wednesday’ Run at MTV Awards 2023
Jenna Ortega stole the show, bringing her dark aesthetic to the biggest fashion night in Hollywood. Pulling off an elaborate mini-skirt design at the 2023 Met Gala, she turned heads. The young internet sensation owned the stairs posing like a runway model in her eye-catching ensemble. She paid homage to the signature designs of Karl Lagerfeld with this goth-inflected high-fashion outfit. While it appears that this deadpan goth girl aura won’t be leaving her anytime soon as the actress has again brought Wednesday-core to the MTV Awards 2023.
The official page of MTV & TV Awards recently announced the winners of this season on Twitter. Due to the ongoing WGA strike, they couldn’t broadcast the results on Sunday but would air a pre-taped special later. Among the category of Best Performance in a Show, Jenna Ortega took the award home. It is a huge triumph considering the 20-year-old has beaten all the strong contenders nominated for the category.

It includes Aubrey Plaza (The White Lotus), Christina Ricci (Yellowjackets), Riley Keough (Daisy Jones & The Six), Sadie Sink (Stranger Things), and Selena Gomez (Only Murders in the Building). Every single one of them is a fan-favorite star ruling television with their performances for years. However, it looks like the titular sardonic emo teen of the Netflix series has made a large impact on viewers this time.
Well, fans would agree that this award is deserving every bit for the way she channeled this iconic character. Meanwhile, this is not the only celebration the Disney alum will be making at the MTV Awards.
