The 2016 MTV Video Music Awards ceremony is to take place on August 28th of this year but has already managed to give fans of the Urban Pop manufacturer Beyonce cause to rejoice.

Details on her record-breaking new nominations feat below…

The ‘Lemonade’ vocalist has bagged 11 nominations this year, the most she has ever secured in her career thanks to the music videos the aforementioned visual LP delivered in the April of this year.

As it stands, she now sits just five awards away from becoming the most awarded act in MTV Video Music Awards history. Should she succeed in picking up these songs, her wins would see Madonna (who is currently the most awarded artist in VMA history) forced to abdicate her crown.

  1. Madonna – 20
  2. Beyonce – 15
  3. Peter Gabriel – 13
  4. Lady Gaga – 13
  5. Eminem – 12
  6. R.E.M. – 12
  7. Green Day – 11
  8. Justin Timberlake – 11
  9. Aerosmith – 10
  10. Fatboy Slim – 9

Keep it locked on TGJ for the full list of nominations.

    Beyonce girl… This era was cute but let’s be real… Aside from the world tour girl this was a hot mess. Songs were sounding like a soundtrack from 2007. We need the next era to be hot, you better bring it at the Grammys next year.

    • Ughhhh July 26, 2016

      You sound stupid. I am not a huge fan of Beyoncé, but Lemonade was her best album; if not album of the year. If you want a bunch of singles go listen to another artist.

      • Ughhhh July 26, 2016

        Besides Drake of course

    • Truth(honey Adel is a has been like nicki) July 26, 2016

      Gitl shuddup

  2. Ty July 26, 2016

    Award season looks like it’s going to be all about beyonce ???? #beyhive

    • Ughhhh July 26, 2016

      Lmao you know white people love Adele. Don’t sleep on her that girl made history

      • HailLegendBeysus July 26, 2016

        Are you kidding??? The album is receiving acclaim for its visuals, lyrics and production.

      • Ughhhh July 26, 2016

        @hail
        Ummm where did I deny that? I’m just stating it’s not just going to be all about Beyoncé because people love Adele. So stfu

    • Kris July 26, 2016

      25 was a great album and definitely sold plentiful records but it didn’t receive as much acclaim as LEMONADE. Lemonade is thoroughly a great album. It’s purposely not a single based album because Beyoncé really wants album of the year and I truly believe she will get it.

      • Ughhhh July 26, 2016

        Lmao Beyonce’s visual for the album is receiving acclaim; not the album separately. Neither albums are single based.

  3. HailLegendBeysus July 26, 2016

    SCREAMING BEYSUS FUXKING CHRIST SNATCH MY WEAVE!!!!!!!!!!!!

  4. © Centurion ::. July 26, 2016

    So? VMAs are irrelevant. I will SCREAM if the hive come in here bragging bout a damn Moonman. ???

    • CherylSoldierr July 26, 2016

      But she has more Grammys than your fave too WYD?

      • © Centurion ::. July 26, 2016

        Thee SELF-DRAG. Cheryl has absolutely none sis. ?

      • © Centurion ::. July 26, 2016

        VMAs too, not even a Brit award. ?

      • CherylSoldierr July 26, 2016

        But does tinashe sis? Why are you so fukin dumb?

      • LB July 26, 2016

        But Tweedy has got ZERO Grammy’s.

      • © Centurion ::. July 26, 2016

        Ummm, no. Why you still clinging to my love for Tinashe in order to drag? Is the struggle real?

      • CherylSoldierr July 26, 2016

        BOTH of you literally Stan TINMAN, who’s latest single is at 1500 on iTunes. WYD? ??????????☕️

      • © Centurion ::. July 26, 2016

        @LB
        JKKSKJJKJSKJSJKJ. Clock that weak kiii.

      • LB July 26, 2016

        @Centurion

        It is trying when it is literally the weakest link.

        How do you come for anyone when you stan for Cheryl Tweedy, I cannot.

      • © Centurion ::. July 26, 2016

        @LB
        CherylSoldierr is such a kiii. That’s why I entertain her little temper tantrums and tragic struggle drags. She will research and dig up whatever artist you like and try to use them as a drag. ??

      • CherylSoldierr July 26, 2016

        The kii is you Stan for a flop who can’t keep a lead single in the iTunes top 1000 for more than a week. How do you flop harder than Natalie la rose? That’s the real tea.

      • LB July 26, 2016

        @Centurion
        LMAO it is comparing a so called “veteran” with an upcoming artist who has more talent in her one eye lash than Tweedy will ever have in what little is left of her career.

        It should be more concerned with Tweedy dating a one directioner for relevance since X factor don’t want her no more.

        When your fav cannot compete, dig up any other artist in an attempt to drag LOL, the struggle.

      • CherylSoldierr July 26, 2016

        Sis I thought you were somewhat intelligent? Talent is subjective, sales are not. You Stan for countless flops (Leona, tinashe, dawn, etc) so I’m living for the hypocrisy. I Stan Cheryl, bey and Zara. Everyone knows that ??

      • LB July 26, 2016

        All who have more talent in their nail polish than Tweedy will ever have

      • CherylSoldierr July 26, 2016

        Kiii no ma’am. All of those girls are currently unsigned so I see why you’re seething

      • LB July 26, 2016

        And Tweedy’s CDs are unpurchased after X Factor and dating a Directioner.

    • HailLegendBeysus July 26, 2016

      She has more accolades in general kiii we see why he’s mad. Canti is being overshadowed and paid dust once again ?????

    • Nahh July 26, 2016

      Of course they don’t matter to you centurion cause yea you know bad gal riri don’t care about nothing she’s so care free lmaooooooooooo

  5. CherylSoldierr July 26, 2016

    Time for the maid to switch back. Did her racist all lives matter fave get any? Or is she still stanning Natalie la rose?

  6. Lana Del Bae July 26, 2016

  7. trellbeylike July 26, 2016

Longevity!!! #BowDown

      • HailLegendBeysus July 26, 2016

        Gurrrl you see how it tried the Hive than realized the goat he stans for has about 200 awards less than bey kiii!! He immediately tried falling back on “dragging” you. Centipedo is weak and tired. Time for that old h** to call it quits lm

  10. BeyStinger July 26, 2016

  11. LB July 26, 2016

  14. SMH July 26, 2016

    I’d be impressed if the VMAs were still relevant. They’re basically on the same level as the BET Awards now.

    • LB July 26, 2016

      BET awards is better, their shows have been more classier and more organized than the VMAs lately.

  15. BeyKnowlesBest July 26, 2016

    Yall faves can play around with whos the Queen cuz BEY IS KING!

  26. iSpeakTruthNoFallacy July 26, 2016

    Congrats to Bey. She made a damn movie for her album which is impressive… Yep that’s the only nice thing I have to say today

  27. LB July 26, 2016

    @ISpeak

    Ya I can commend her on that, she deserves those VMAs in the technical categories.

    • iSpeakTruthNoFallacy July 26, 2016

      The multitude of directors and curators that stole from struggling artists in Brooklyn deserve the technical noms, but nominating songs that have less YouTube views than Rebecca Black and a random cat video. But hey, I guess it shows that Jay can slob on a d*ck pretty well huh

      • Cops Give A Damn About A Negro. Pull A Trigger Kill A N**** He’s A Hero (Tyler) July 26, 2016

        Its too bad all of Jay’s alleged d*** slobbing couldn’t get Rihanna more than 3 nominations.
        “Call Jay up and close the deal” or NAH!

  28. CherylSoldierr July 26, 2016

    Get super love in the top 1500 before you come for others b!!tch

    • RihNavy July 26, 2016

      It’s literally 1492 on the ITUNES top 1500. I mean..:damn, AND it came out last week?! KIIII! RCA doesn’t see it for HA! And I don’t know why LB is trying it with you considering Cheryl as a solo artist and in a group collective slays, destroys and has more relevance than any of his fave’s

      • CherylSoldierr July 26, 2016

        Right boo. It stans tinashe Leona Lewis and dawn. I cannnot.

  29. LB July 26, 2016

    Get Tweedy some vocal lessons, maybe then Only Human will finally be gold after X Factor and dating a directioner

    • RihNavy July 26, 2016

      But Tinashe doesn’t even have a GOLD album in ANY market that counts and is literally serving a blatant FKA Twigs T in your profile pic. She has ONE platinum single, go back to stanning for LightskinnedHanna

    • RihNavy July 26, 2016

      Who Nicole Svigjfhdjdkf?! Is the next person Marques Houston is stanning for this week? Sorry, I meant *Molly, she just has so many personalities

  32. K.Dot July 26, 2016

    But sis…Rihanna has sucked on 69494859586 more dïcks than anyone in the industry and she can’t even get any relevant VMA noms, a platinum album based off pure sales OR a long lasting relationship. Wyd?

    • Cops Give A Damn About A Negro. Pull A Trigger Kill A N**** He’s A Hero (Tyler) July 26, 2016

      Rihanna’s signed to Roc Nation though. What happened to “calling Jay up and closing the deal”?? lolol

      • RihNavy July 26, 2016

        And she’s also signed up for her turn at the Free Clinic and you see where that got her.

  35. Surprise..(DEC 2013) July 26, 2016

    Slaying as usal….P.S u all need to leave CHERYL COLE ALONE..LMAO

  36. LB July 26, 2016

    LMAO Tweedy stan, Tweedy will never be half a respectable “artist” Leona is. Tweedy is literally the lowest grade female “artist” out in the UK, hence they confined the embarrassment within their borders.

  37. CherylSoldierr July 26, 2016

    Leona is literally doing cats bc no one will sign her IDNDODHDKDJSO???

    • RihNavy July 26, 2016

    • LB July 26, 2016

      And Cheryl opening her legs for someone half her age because no one will buy her floppy discs

  38. LB July 26, 2016

    @ISpeak

    It is unfortunate that Matt Fulks has been robbed of his artwork. People will credit Yonce and her team for fraudulently stealing what is a work of art.

    Yes this video deserves the norms, but for Fulks work, not Yonce’s who stole it.

    Congrats I guess, Corporate greed knows no bounds it seems.

    • iSpeakTruthNoFallacy July 26, 2016

      But hey that’s what they do. They can steal from artists, rob from employees, and literally buy awards along with headlines. It’s okay, because the real is the only thing people remember. All that other fake sh*t is here today and gone tomorrow.

  39. CherylSoldierr July 26, 2016

    Bish isnt tinman sucking Calvin. And wasn’t Leona sucking cowell. HOLLERINGG

    • LB July 26, 2016

      Receipts?

      • CherylSoldierr July 26, 2016

        Check google boo. Not to mention rih too ????

      • LB July 26, 2016

        We all know Cheryl is opening her legs for the directioner, waiting for receipts of Leona and Simon

      • CherylSoldierr July 26, 2016

        Cheryl is dating Liam. V different from rih or tinman sucking for tracks

  40. iSpeakTruthNoFallacy July 26, 2016

    As a kid I used to love building things out of cards, but it was always tricky. You can build the most beautiful structures, yet the slightest movement could cause them to immediately tumble. Then one day I realized that no matter how careful I was it didn’t matter. Cards are made out of paper without any weight to form real stability. Therefore no matter what, a house of cards must always come falling down…

    • Lea July 27, 2016

      Why was this thumbed down? Was there some shade that flew over my head. It was simple and beautiful!

  41. Sherrele July 26, 2016

    Congratulations Beyonce!!! Keep doing what you do! Beyonce will be performing at VMAS!!!!

  42. Royalkev July 26, 2016

    Beyonce, sweetheart, babycakes – I swear you are the answer! … You are what we need, at the right time, in the package it needed to be delivered in! Congratulations!

  43. Lea July 27, 2016

    I seriously do not get it. She’s a great performer and can twerk, but that last watered down lemonade album of hers was boring as hell and has already been forgotten. Gul bye with all those paid VMA nominations, just like all those paid Grammy’s!
