MTV VMA's Iconic and Memorable Moments

We are hours away from viewing the premiere of the 2014 MTV Video Music Awards. Over the years, there have been so many memorable and shocking moments that had our mouths wide open and left us talking for years to come. Let's take a look at some of the most iconic moments and memorable performances from the VMAs.

Mariah Carey and Whitney Houston were always pitted against one another and placed in a competition for who was the best singer and diva. There were always rumors that they hated one another --until they graced the VMA stage together wearing the same dress. Definitely a VMA moment.




Back when J. Lo and Diddy (whose name has changed too many times since then) were an item, were fashion forward together, and amazing to gawk at. 



When Paris and Nicky Hilton were the "it" girls. They were on every red carpet, at the hottest parties, and in every tabloid.



TLC at the 1999 MTV VMA awards, back when "No Scrubs" was a hit. The trio won a moon man for that song. 



Cher presented Gaga a moon man in a revealing outfit that left the crowd amazed, while Gaga wore her infamous meat dress.


Who could forget when Lil Mama crashed Jay Z and Alicia Key's set for "Empire State of Mind". 
Jay Z did not look happy and Lil Mama has been the subject of memes ever since.

When Destiny's Child were now a trio and racking up on the awards. They were always known for their matching, bedazzled ensembles. 


When Beyonce burst onto the scenes as a solo artist and our lives haven't been the same since.
(Okay, maybe just mine.)


(Last one) And when she announced  to the world, she and Jay Z were expecting their first child--Twitter crashed!


When Justin Bieber was just a baby.



The shocking performance with Britney, Madonna, and Christina--and the two kisses heard around the world.




This one is probably the biggest moment in VMA history and will always be remembered as the craziest. Kanye West coined the phrase "I'mma let you finish, but...". 

After taking the mic from Taylor, he then proclaimed that Beyonce had the..."best video of all time." There was a collected gasp from the audience and Beyonce herself. This will certainly go down in VMA history and and is still laughed about today. 




When Michael Jackson and Lisa Marie Presley were an item and kissed on stage. This was such an unlikely couple, that many believed the kiss was a ploy to convince everyone that they were an item.


Miley Cyrus, Robin Thicke, and that infamous finger. Robin is still paying for that performance today.


Lil Kim, Mya, Christina Aguilera, and Pink were all Lady Marmalades.



When Lil Kim wore a pasty over her boob and Diana Ross jiggled it. Mary J. Blige looked unamused.



When Britney Spears performed her iconic performance "Slave 4 U" and danced with a python.


Oh and when Britney and Justin were a sweet, young, innocent couple. 

What is your favorite MTV moment? Did I miss anything?
