The MTV VMAs have been around since the mid-80s and the award ceremony will probably be around until the end of time. Year after year, some of the biggest names have won for their creative music videos and this year will be no different. With nominees already announced for this year, the hype and adrenaline rush has already taken over most of the world. It is no surprise that everyone was rushing to get their votes for their favorite artists.

While the award show may have given music history some of its biggest moments, the award show has also given fans a platform to choose their favored songs and artists. However, as the excitement continues to build, and voting comes to a close, there are still questions surrounding the entire voting process for this year.

How to vote for your favorite artist at the 2023 MTV VMAs?

This year it was announced that the VMAs would be held on September 12. And since the VMAs are not considered an award only for the winning artist and a win for the whole fanbase, that is why voting for your favorite artists has been important. Thankfully, MTV has been around for so long that they have made it simple too. All viewers have to do is vote via MTV Instagram stories or by heading straight to the official website.

During all the excitement, it seems other social media users have been confusing voters. Thus, the best way to go about voting is to head to the website. On the website, viewers may receive a prompt telling them to create an account. Once your account is created, you will be given either ten or twenty votes per day depending on MTV’s rules. After that, voters can find their category and use all their votes on their favorite artists.

But with the way some artists have missed out on the ‘Moonman’, some can not help but wonder if their votes are actually being paid attention to.

How voting at the MTV VMAs can make a difference

For nearly four decades, MTV has given viewers a platform for their favorite artists, but viewers were only permitted to add their two cents in 2006. While fans were allowed to vote, they did not have complete freedom over all the choices. Now viewers have control over all categories except for the technical ones, and it looks like they love it.

So, of course, fans can affect the VMA results with their votes. However, with most categories closed, and only a few more days remaining, viewers can only hope that their votes are registered and keep an eye out for their final voting dates.

While the MTV VMAs may have given music history some of its biggest moments, the award show has also given fans a platform to choose their favored songs and artists and even be a seat filler if they like. And in less than six days, fans will have new MTV VMA winners for 2023.
