" When Jesus articulate yes … "
Victoria Monétwas nominated for not one, butseven Grammystoday, and now her fans are having the last laugh.
Victoria had one of the biggestsongs of the summerwhen she released “On My Mama” earlier this year. Not only did the choreography go viral on TikTok, but you couldn’t turn on the radio or a music streaming service without hearing it.
Victoria’s name as a performer might sound new to some, but in the industry, she’s anything but a newbie. She’s widely known forwriting music for some of today’s biggest artists, including a ton of songs forAriana Grande(“7 Rings,” “Thank U, Next,” “34+35,” etc.),Chloe x Halle(“Do It”), and more.
So when the 2023MTV Video Music Awardsrolled around on Sept. 12, fans expected to see her grace the stage. Instead, they only saw her in the audience.
Victoria noticed the outpouring of support from fans saying that she deserved to perform at the VMAs. Victoria revealed that MTV told her team it was “too early in [her] story” for her to hit the stage at their awards show.

Whew, baby! Fans were not happy to hear that excuse, especially considering her credentials.

“ Too betimes ” ? ! Oh , pouf they played in your font with that one . On my mum would ’ve been sodding and everybody would ’ve known every word ! 👏 🏽 But your time will come and we will be there when the metre come ! 🤧 ❤ ️
But earlier today, Grammy nominations were announced, and Victoria struck gold…seven times! The “Coastin'” singer is nominated for Record of the Year, Best New Artist, Best Traditional R&B Performance, Best R&B Song, Best R&B Performance, Best R&B Album, and Best Engineered Album, Non-Classical.
Victoria, who’s set to close out herJaguartournext week, submitted herself for 11 categories for the Recording Academy to consider. And for her to be chosen for 7 out of the 11 is a huge win in itself.
Well, fans were right there behind her to celebrate…and, of course, to rub it in MTV’s face for making such a big mistake.
